Products.VisitTracker 1.0b2

Utility to track visits

Introduction

Products.VisitTracker provides a simple API for tracking visits on objects. Objects for which visits should be tracked have to implement the:

Products.VisitTracker.interfaces.IVisitable

interface and thus provide an attribute named revisit which defines the time delta in hours after which a revisit is tracked as a new visit.

Visits are tracked by the IVisitTracker adapter and stored as annotations on the specific object.

Usage

Given an object implementing the IVisitable interface tracking and retrieving visits is done by adapting to IVisitTracker.

tracker = IVisitTracker(obj)

Tracking a visit

Tracking a visit is done by calling the trackVisit method. This is usually done in a view or a viewlet.

tracker.trackVisit()

Getting visits

There are multiple methods available to retrieve the stored visits.

Get visits

tracker.getVisits()

Returns a list of date, userid tuples of all visits tracked for this object.

Get number of visits

tracker.getNumberOfVisits()

Get last visit

tracker.getLastVisit()

Get last visit of user

tracker.getLastVisit(userid)

Returns the date of the last visit of the specified user tracked for this object.
