Warning
This library no longer works, as the underlying heka-framed protobuf data no longer exists.
Please see this post to fx-data-dev for more information.
A simple library to fetch and analyze data collected by the Mozilla Telemetry service.
Objects collected by Telemetry are called pings.
A ping has a number of properties (aka dimensions) and a payload.
For example usage and additional context on how this library fits into the broader landscape of Mozilla telemetry analysis tools, see moztelemetry on docs.telemetry.mozilla.org. To browse the source code, see https://github.com/mozilla/python_moztelemetry
A session of Telemetry data analysis/manipulation typically starts with a Dataset query that filters the objects by one or more dimensions, and then extracts the items of interest from their payload.
