Change `home` to a unique name for the page you are working with. #### Dynamic pages [](#dynamic-pages) For dynamic pages, such as user profiles, or job listings etc you may provide a dynamic element like this `Counter::showAndCount('user-profile', $user->id)` ( for blades use `{{ Counter::showAndCount('user-profile', $user->id) }}` ) > Change `user-profile` to a unique name for the page you are working with. Number output is already formatted. So 3000 visitors will render as 3,000 If you have records on a page but do not want to count visiting the page displaying the records as a hit on the record itself then change `showAndCount` to just `show`. Example `Counter::show('job-listings', $job->id)` ( for blades use `{{ Counter::show('job-listings', $job->id) }}` ) You may get all hits for every page on the entire site with `Counter::allHits()` ( for blades use `{{ Counter::allHits() }}` ). To specify a day constraint, like only all hits for the past 30 days then do `Counter::allHits(30)` (for blades use `{{ Counter::allHits(30) }}` ). If you would just like to process a hit for a page without displaying anything then just use `Counter::count('user-profile', $user->id)`. Works the same as all previous examples for both static and dynamic pages, blade is the same syntax. Useful for counting hits for a page without letting everyone see. Enjoy! ### Extra [](#extra) - Package influenced by: [defuse/phpcount](https://github.com/defuse/phpcount "defuse/phpcount") - How this differs from: [weboAp/Visitor](https://github.com/weboAp/Visitor "weboAp/Visitor") This package lets you see hit counts for specific pages/objects as well as an overall site hit count. It also uses a uniquely generated cookie (fallback to IP) to give a more accurate reading. Nice package for the pro-anonymous people :) ``` mysql> select * from kryptonit3_counter_page; +----+--------------------------------------+ | id | page | +----+--------------------------------------+ | 2 | 24d83c12-a1e0-598b-93ee-df05ae3f87e7 | | 1 | 597e0526-152f-5fc0-9d44-b51fd9e45b8f | +----+--------------------------------------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) mysql> select * from kryptonit3_counter_visitor; +----+------------------------------------------------------------------+ | id | visitor | +----+------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 1 | 88a5f67524a1bc75da5ea8b7250e8280c78d60dce59b129dc37123b137ce6199 | +----+------------------------------------------------------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) mysql> select * from kryptonit3_counter_page_visitor; +---------+------------+---------------------+ | page_id | visitor_id | created_at | +---------+------------+---------------------+ | 1 | 1 | 2015-06-22 17:52:43 | | 2 | 1 | 2015-06-22 17:52:43 | +---------+------------+---------------------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) ``` Pull requests are welcome. -------------------------- [](#pull-requests-are-welcome) ### Health Score 28 — LowBetter than 54% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity4 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity67 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 57.9% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
