A clean way to track your pages & understand your user's behavior

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require coderflexx/laravisit

You can publish the config file with:

# linux
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Coderflex\\Laravisit\\LaravisitServiceProvider"

# windows
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Coderflex\Laravisit\LaravisitServiceProvider"

then, run database migration

php artisan migrate

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | User Namespace
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | This value informs Laravisit which namespace you will be 
    | selecting to get the user model instance
    | If this value equals to null, "\Coderflex\Laravisit\Models\User" will be used 
    | by default.
    |
    */
    'user_namespace' => "\Coderflex\Laravisit\Models\User",
];

Usage

Use HasVisits Trait

The first thing you need to do is, to use HasVisits trait, and implement CanVisit interface.

namespace App\Models\Post;

use Coderflex\Laravisit\Concerns\CanVisit;
use Coderflex\Laravisit\Concerns\HasVisits;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Post extends Model implements CanVisit
{
    ...
    use HasFactory;
    use HasVisits;
    ...
}

After this step, you are all set, you can now count visits by using visit method

$post->visit();

You can chain methods to the visit method. Here are a list of the available methods:

By default, you will have unique visits each day using dailyInterval() method. Meaning, when the users access the page multiple times in a day time frame, you will see just one record related to them.

If you want to log users access to a page with different timeframes, here are a bunch of useful methods:

Get The Records With Popular Time Frames

After the visits get logged, you can retrieve the data by the following method:

Visit Presenter

This package is coming with helpful decorate model properties, and it uses Laravel Presenter package under the hood.
