[tor-commits] [stem/master] CollecTor publication time filtering
commit 6c07fe554ef6a7d40b196d314101153eacfb41af

CollecTor publication time filtering
When I first wrote this module I played fast and lose with the 'start' and
'end' parameters, guessing relevance purely based on filenames.
When Karsten added timestamps to the index he better defined the relevant
timestamp to be a descriptor's publication, which everything except
microdescriptors contains.
Interestingly, archives can contain publications both before and after its
filename date. For example...
recent/relay-descriptors/server-descriptors/2019-12-27-22-04-59-server-descriptors
Old filename derived timestamps:
start: 2019-12-27 22:04:59
end: 2019-12-27 23:04:59
Index's publication timpestamps:
start: 2019-12-27 20:30:00
end: 2019-12-27 22:45:00
If the file was created at 22:04 how does it contain something published at
22:45?
Regardless, now that the index contains publication times for our purposes
filenames dates are moot. Our 'start' and 'end' arguments provide the subset
of archives that reside within the given publication range.
For example, the following downloads descriptors that were published up to two
hours ago...
recent = datetime.datetime.utcnow() - datetime.timedelta(minutes = 120)
descriptors = stem.descriptor.collector.get_server_descriptors(start = recent)
If we make this more sophisticated we can demonstrate how many
descriptors we pull from each archive...
import datetime
import stem.descriptor.collector
collector = stem.descriptor.collector.get_instance()
recent = datetime.datetime.utcnow() - datetime.timedelta(minutes = 120)
# This effectively does the same thing as get_server_descriptors(),
# but in a way we can also determine the full counts.
for f in collector.files('server-descriptor', start = recent):
all_desc = list(f.read())
recent_desc = list(f.read(start = recent))
print('%s (%s => %s)' % (f.path, f.start, f.end))
print(' %i of %i descriptors were published recently' % (len(recent_desc), len(all_desc)))
# Download them again, but through our more prevalently used
# get_server_descriptors() method.
print('\nIn total there are %i server descriptors published recently' % len(list(collector.get_server_descriptors(start = recent))))
