A while ago, I made a web page for Synchronet's web server that displays door usage stats for the top doors on a BBS. An example, from my BBS:

http://www.digitaldistortionbbs.com/digdist-pages/DoorStats.xjs

It uses the open-source chart.js library.

I've made this available for download in case any other Synchronet sysops would want to set this up on their BBS:
https://shorturl.at/ycuoZ

Full URL: http://www.digitaldistortionbbs.com/api/files.ssjs?call=download-file&dir=bbsfi le_syncutil&file=DoorSWeb.zip

In case of any issues with the above URLS, you can go to my Synchronet Utilities area and download it from there (DoorSWeb.zip):
http://www.digitaldistortionbbs.com/?page=002-files.xjs&dir=bbsfile_syncutil

To get the door stats, it uses another JS script which I wrote to parse the Synchronet logs for door usage information for the time period of the logs, such as the number of times run, and top door users. Parsing the logs is probably brittle, as the log format might change, but I thought something like this could be cool/useful.

This is very nice, but I have two observations.
End Of The Line BBS door stats
Time period: 2019-12-30 12:05 to 2024-07-13 20:42
Having so many logs, it took a couple of minutes to generate. Maybe it
could be turned into something that can be run as a daily maintenance
task and create static images.
OR to reduce runtime, you could keep a note of the last run and the
statistics and then a new run will pick up from where the last one
finished. This is even more useful if you delete old logs, you can
still keep your statistics.

Yeah, makes sense. I could probably make a script that could be run as a timed event that will write the statistics to a JSON file that the page could read.

Also, odd, although you say you've tried it, my BBS still says the file has been downloaded 0 times..
