Forum: Ruby on Rails Finding how many times was my website visited?

Hi Everyone,

Good Day!

I wanna to add to my blog a counter for displaying, how many times was 
my
website visited. I would like to solve it through ruby (not GA or 
something
like that). Is available any gem that do this task (also with checking 
IP
address,the time of latest visited and visited count).

Please Advice.

Thank You.

check newrelic_rpm

hey,

it actually is possible to do that... however, it will get very complex
when you want to have statistics and i would recommend something like 
new
relic or google analytics to use then... but thats not what you asked
for... so her i give you a quick and dirty example how you could do 
that:

rails g model Visit date:time ip:string (and what not you want to have)

then in your application_controller:

before_filter :track

def track
  trackobject = Track.new(:date => Time.now, :ip =>
"#{request.env['REMOTE_ADDR']}") unless session[:tracked] (and again 
what
you want to have

 session[:tracked] = true (if you want that visitor only tracked once on 
your page

end

well... thats what happens if you write it quick and dirty. it was not
meant to be copy and paste... sorry... but what exactly is line 7 of 
your
applications controller? did you have sessioons enabled?

I think maybe the problem is that it should be
trackobject = Visit.new( ...

@OP I assume you are a newcomer to Rails.
I think you might benefit from working right through a good tutorial
such as railstutorial.org
which is free to use online.

I hope you don't have *
Track Model with date and IP fields.
