When you say "Wizards should already be there as long as SY and Fuse depend

hmm - just realised that is missing from the docs...pretty sure it was there at some point.

For basic enablement add dependency to: org.jboss.tools.usage like in https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-server/blob/jbosstools-4.2.0.Beta1x/as/plugins/org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.ui/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF#L67

Can I interpret that as meaning if our tools ping for daily events as in
the example below, our wizard usage will already be recorded?

Wizard usage will be recorded as soon as the usage reporter is installed (and of course if the user said yes to be tracked)

UsageReporter.getInstance().countEvent(eventType.event(label, value));

If you have code like the above then you for sure should already be covered for sure ;)

Hi all,

Back in January I received great help from Alexey and Max to help me take
a
look at the usage data we've been tracking for JBDS. It really helped get
some baseline numbers for ESB usage so we could justify deprecation of the
older tooling going forward (still supporting, just not actively updating,
which is how it's been for a few years now anyway).

Now we'd like to hook SwitchYard and Fuse Tools wizards and editors up to
get them into the tracking data as well.

Wizards should already be there as long as SY and Fuse depend on the usage
plugin.

For editors you will need to send specific events.

Do we have anything written up on how to use the frameworks for the usage

tooling in JBDS? Or can you point me at some examples of how you've done
it
for wizards and editors in the main JBoss Tools code?

Docs:
https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-devdoc/blob/master/api/usage/usage_api.adoc

Please be aware to not send a ping for every little thing - we don't want
to overload with data.

But for example if you want to count the number of times the fuse editor
is opened you can do that with a daily event counter.

To find examples - search for .countEvent() in JBoss Tools Server and I
think Forge has some too.
