Stats

Talo stats let you track individual player data as well as aggregated global data - like how many items have been crafted or how many deaths a player has.

To create a stat, head over to the dashboard, visit the stats page and create your first stat. Take note of the Internal name as this is how you'll be referring to your stat.

Getting stats​

You can list all available stats using Talo.stats.get_stats(). This will return all the constraint data defined in the dashboard like the default_value, max_change and max_value. This will also return the global values for global stats:

var res := await Talo.stats.get_stats()
var all_stats := PackedStringArray(res.map(func(item: TaloStat): return item.internal_name))
var internal_names := ", ".join(all_stats)

## e.g. Stats: gold-collected, health-healed, deaths
print("Stats: %s" % [internal_names])

Fetching individual stats​

If you already have the internal name of a stat, you can use Talo.stats.find() and pass in the internal name to return data for a single stat.

Tracking stats​

You can track a stat using the Stats API track() function which takes your stat's internal_name and the amount to change the stat by (default 1.0):

player.gd
func on_death() -> void:
	Talo.stats.track('deaths')
player_potion.gd
var health: float

func on_heal(potion: Potion) -> void:
	health += potion.amount
	Talo.stats.track('health-healed', potion.amount)

Stat values​

After updating a stat using track(), you can check the updated value for the player stat and global stat:

var res := await Talo.stats.track(stat_name)
print("%s, %s" % [res.value, res.stat.global_value])

Stat history​

You can fetch a history of updates to a stat for the current player using Talo.stats.get_history(). These results are paginated and can be filtered by specific start and end dates too:

func fetch_history() -> void:
	var res := await Talo.stats.get_history(stat_name)
	var changes := PackedStringArray(res.history.map(func(item): return str(item.change)))

	# e.g. "gold-collected changed by 100, 46, 82, 19, 104"
	print("%s changed by: %s" % [stat_name, ", ".join(changes)])

Global stat history​

For global stats, you can also fetch a history of updates from all players using Talo.stats.get_global_history(). This API is similar to the player stat history except that it is filterable by individual players and it returns metrics about the stat global value during the filtered time period:

func fetch_global_history() -> void:
	var res := await Talo.stats.get_global_history(stat_name)
	var global_value := res.global_value

	print("Min: %s, max: %s, median: %s, average: %s, average change: %s" % [
		global_value.min_value,
		global_value.max_value,
		global_value.median_value,
		global_value.average_value,
		global_value.average_change
	])
