Developer Statistics

This val lets you post statistics from your GitHub Actions runs to build charts of change over time.

We do this by having a step at the end of our actions run like this:

- name: devstats run: | curl -X "POST" "https://tmcw-devstats.web.val.run/" \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.DEVSTATS_TOKEN }}' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' \ -d $"{ \"name\": \"node_modules_kb\", \"value\": $(du -sk node_modules | awk '{print $1}') }"

And setting a DEVSTATS_TOKEN value, which could be any short random value, both in Val Town environment variables and as a secret in your GitHub Actions configuration.

Currently the name you attach to a statistic can be anything, and the value is expected to be a number.
