开源软件介绍(OpenSource Introduction):

Eloquent Viewable

Packagist run-tests StyleCI Codecov branch Total Downloads license

This Laravel >= 6.0 package allows you to associate views with Eloquent models.

Once installed you can do stuff like this:

// Return total views count
views($post)->count();

// Return total views count that have been made since 20 February 2017
views($post)->period(Period::since('2017-02-20'))->count();

// Return total views count that have been made between 2014 and 2016
views($post)->period(Period::create('2014', '2016'))->count();

// Return total unique views count (based on visitor cookie)
views($post)->unique()->count();

// Record a view
views($post)->record();

// Record a view with a cooldown
views($post)->cooldown(now()->addHours(2))->record();

Overview

Sometimes you don't want to pull in a third-party service like Google Analytics to track your application's page views. Then this package comes in handy. Eloquent Viewable allows you to easiliy associate views with Eloquent models. It's designed with simplicity in mind.

This package stores each view record individually in the database. The advantage of this is that it allows us to make very specific counts. For example, if we want to know how many people has viewed a specific post between January 10 and February 17 in 2018, we can do the following: views($post)->period(Period::create('10-01-2018', '17-02-2018'))->count();. The disadvantage of this is that your database can grow rapidly in size depending on the amount of visitors your application has.

Installation

First, you need to install the package via Composer:

composer require cyrildewit/eloquent-viewable

Secondly, you can publish the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\EloquentViewableServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"

Finally, you need to run the migrate command:

php artisan migrate

You can optionally publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\EloquentViewableServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Register service provider manually

If you prefer to register packages manually, you can add the following provider to your application's providers list.

// config/app.php

'providers' => [
    // ...
    CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\EloquentViewableServiceProvider::class,
];

Usage

Preparing your model

To associate views with a model, the model must implement the following interface and trait:

  • Interface: CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Contracts\Viewable
  • Trait: CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\InteractsWithViews

Example:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\InteractsWithViews;
use CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Contracts\Viewable;

class Post extends Model implements Viewable
{
    use InteractsWithViews;

    // ...
}

Recording views

To make a view record, you can call the record method on the fluent Views instance.

views($post)->record();

The best place where you should record a visitors's view would be inside your controller. For example:

// PostController.php
public function show(Post $post)
{
    views($post)->record();

    return view('post.show', compact('post'));
}

Note: This package filters out crawlers by default. Be aware of this when testing, because Postman is for example also a crawler.

Setting a cooldown

You may use the cooldown method on the Views instance to add a cooldown between view records. When you set a cooldown, you need to specify the number of minutes.

views($post)
    ->cooldown($minutes)
    ->record();

Instead of passing the number of minutes as an integer, you can also pass a DateTimeInterface instance.

$expiresAt = now()->addHours(3);

views($post)
    ->cooldown($expiresAt)
    ->record();

How it works

When recording a view with a session delay, this package will also save a snapshot of the view in the visitor's session with an expiration datetime. Whenever the visitor views the item again, this package will checks his session and decide if the view should be saved in the database or not.

Retrieving views counts

Get total views count

views($post)->count();

Get views count of a specific period

use CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Support\Period;

// Example: get views count from 2017 upto 2018
views($post)
    ->period(Period::create('2017', '2018'))
    ->count();

The Period class that comes with this package provides many handy features. The API of the Period class looks as follows:

Between two datetimes
$startDateTime = Carbon::createFromDate(2017, 4, 12);
$endDateTime = '2017-06-12';

Period::create($startDateTime, $endDateTime);
Since a datetime
Period::since(Carbon::create(2017));
Upto a datetime
Period::upto(Carbon::createFromDate(2018, 6, 1));
Since past

Uses Carbon::today() as start datetime minus the given unit.

Period::pastDays(int $days);
Period::pastWeeks(int $weeks);
Period::pastMonths(int $months);
Period::pastYears(int $years);
Since sub

Uses Carbon::now() as start datetime minus the given unit.

Period::subSeconds(int $seconds);
Period::subMinutes(int $minutes);
Period::subHours(int $hours);
Period::subDays(int $days);
Period::subWeeks(int $weeks);
Period::subMonths(int $months);
Period::subYears(int $years);

Get total unique views count

If you only want to retrieve the unique views count, you can simply add the unique method to the chain.

views($post)
    ->unique()
    ->count();

Order models by views count

The Viewable trait adds two scopes to your model: orderByViews and orderByUniqueViews.

Order by views count

Post::orderByViews()->get(); // descending
Post::orderByViews('asc')->get(); // ascending

Order by unique views count

Post::orderByUniqueViews()->get(); // descending
Post::orderByUniqueViews('asc')->get(); // ascending

Order by views count within the specified period

Post::orderByViews('asc', Period::pastDays(3))->get();  // descending
Post::orderByViews('desc', Period::pastDays(3))->get(); // ascending

And of course, it's also possible with the unique views variant:

Post::orderByUniqueViews('asc', Period::pastDays(3))->get();  // descending
Post::orderByUniqueViews('desc', Period::pastDays(3))->get(); // ascending

Order by views count within the specified collection

Post::orderByViews('asc', null, 'custom-collection')->get();  // descending
Post::orderByViews('desc', null, 'custom-collection')->get(); // ascending

Post::orderByUniqueViews('asc', null, 'custom-collection')->get();  // descending
Post::orderByUniqueViews('desc', null, 'custom-collection')->get(); // ascending

Get views count of viewable type

If you want to know how many views a specific viewable type has, you need to pass an empty Eloquent model to the views() helper like so:

views(new Post())->count();

You can also pass a fully qualified class name. The package will then resolve an instance from the application container.

views(Post::class)->count();
views('App\Post')->count();

View collections

If you have different types of views for the same viewable type, you may want to store them in their own collection.

views($post)
    ->collection('customCollection')
    ->record();

To retrieve the views count in a specific collection, you can reuse the same collection() method.

views($post)
    ->collection('customCollection')
    ->count();

Remove views on delete

To automatically delete all views of an viewable Eloquent model on delete, you can enable it by setting the removeViewsOnDelete property to true in your model definition.

protected $removeViewsOnDelete = true;

Caching view counts

Caching the views count can be challenging in some scenarios. The period can be for example dynamic which makes caching not possible. That's why you can make use of the in-built caching functionality.

To cache the views count, simply add the remember() method to the chain. The default lifetime is forever.

Examples:

views($post)->remember()->count();
views($post)->period(Period::create('2018-01-24', '2018-05-22'))->remember()->count();
views($post)->period(Period::upto('2018-11-10'))->unique()->remember()->count();
views($post)->period(Period::pastMonths(2))->remember()->count();
views($post)->period(Period::subHours(6))->remember()->count();
// Cache for 3600 seconds
views($post)->remember(3600)->count();

// Cache until the defined DateTime
views($post)->remember(now()->addWeeks(2))->count();

// Cache forever
views($post)->remember()->count();

Optimizing

Benchmarks

Database indexes

The default views table migration file has already two indexes for viewable_id and viewable_type.

If you have enough storage available, you can add another index for the visitor column. Depending on the amount of views, this may speed up your queries in some cases.

Caching

Caching views counts can have a big impact on the performance of your application. You can read the documentation about caching the views count here

Using the remember() method will only cache view counts made by the count() method. The orderByViews and orderByUnique query scopes aren't using these values because they only add something to the query builder. To optimize these queries, you can add an extra column or multiple columns to your viewable database table with these counts.

Example: we want to order our blog posts by unique views count. The first thing that may come to your mind is to use the orderByUniqueViews query scope.

$posts = Post::latest()->orderByUniqueViews()->paginate(20);

This query is quite slow when you have a lot of views stored. To speed things up, you can add for example a unique_views_count column to your posts table. We will have to update this column periodically with the unique views count. This can easily be achieved using a schedued Laravel command.

There may be a faster way to do this, but such command can be like:

$posts = Post::all();

foreach($posts as $post) {
    $post->unique_views_count = views($post)->unique()->count();
}

To be updated! Laravel has a nice chunk and cursor feature what may come in handy.

Extending

If you want to extend or replace one of the core classes with your own implementations, you can override them:

  • CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Views
  • CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\View
  • CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Visitor
  • CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\CrawlerDetectAdapter

Note: Don't forget that all custom classes must implement their original interfaces

Custom information about visitor

The Visitor class is responsible for providing the Views builder information about the current visitor. The following information is provided:

  • a unique identifier (stored in a cookie)
  • ip address
  • check for Do No Track header
  • check for crawler

The default Visitor class gets its information from the request. Therefore, you may experience some issues when using the Views builder via a RESTful API. To solve this, you will need to provide your own data about the visitor.

You can override the Visitor class globally or locally.

Create your own Visitor class

Create you own Visitor class in your Laravel application and implement the CyrildeWit\EloquentViewable\Contracts\Visitor interface. Create the required methods by the interface.

Alternatively, you can extend the default Visitor class that comes with this package.
