Description: =========
        Ego Boost
        =========
        
        This package will do nothing less than boosting the ego of any Python developer
        who has made packages available via PyPI. Finally, with one simple command and
        a cronjob you can track the downloads of your packages over time. Here is a
        simple example::
        
            $ ego-boost collect python-weewar pypi:python-weewar bb:basti/python-weewar
            Fetching data from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-weewar...
            Fetching data from http://bitbucket.org/basti/python-weewar...
            $ ego-boost export
            date,python-amazon-product-api,python-weewar
            2010-07-10,8742,2807
            2010-07-11,0,2807
            ...
        
        Once installed, you can use binary ``ego-boost`` with the following commands:
        
        ``collect <package> URL [URL ...]``
          will collect download statistics from the provided URLs and store them under
          key ``package`` (which will later appear in the CSV data).
        
          You can specify any number of URLs. Supported sources so far are
        
          * PyPI (shortcut: ``pypi:``)
          * bitbucket.org (shortcut: ``bb:``)
          * github.com (shortcut: ``gh:``)
        
          Data is always stored for the current date. Subsequent data collection will
          not lead to falsely accumulated data for that day!
        
        ``export``
          will aggregate download statistics per package per date and print CSV data to
          stdout. 
        
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        Simply use ``pip install ego-boost`` (or ``easy_install ego-boost``). You can
        also download the source from `PyPI <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ego-boost>`_
        and run ``python setup.py install`` in the untared directory.
        
        On one of my servers, I have installed the following cronjob that collects
        download statistics for all my packages on a daily basis::
        
            # m h  dom mon dow   command
            0 7 * * * ego-boost collect python-weewar bb:basti/python-weewar
            0 7 * * * ego-boost collect python-weewar-monitor bb:basti/python-weewar-monitor
            0 7 * * * ego-boost collect python-amazon-product-api pypi:python-amazon-product-api
        
        TODOs
        =====
        
        * Make code available on bitbucket (or similar).
        * Some graphics would be nice!
        * Support for more sources (if there is interest).
        
        If you have any questions, suggestions, comments, improvements etc. drop me a
        line!
