Installation ------------ [](#installation) Begin by installing this package with composer. `composer require nickdekruijk/laravel-visitors` ### Configuration [](#configuration) Publish the config file if the defaults doesn't suite your needs: `php artisan vendor:publish --provider="NickDeKruijk\LaravelVisitors\ServiceProvider"` ### Separate databases [](#separate-databases) You might want to separate the visitors database from the main application database for performance or to avoid conflicts. Add a new connection in your `config/database.php` connections array for example: ``` 'visitors' => [ 'driver' => 'sqlite', 'database' => database_path('visitors.sqlite'), ], ``` And change db\_connection configuration in the `config/visitors.php` file or add VISITORS\_DB\_CONNECTION in your .env file. ### Include tracker [](#include-tracker) Add `@include('laravel-visitors::track')` inside your view, a good spot might be directly after the <head> tag in your `app.blade.php` layout file, for example: ``` > @include('laravel-visitors::track') ``` ### Health Score 28 — LowBetter than 54% of packages Maintenance32 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity13 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity49 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
