Add number of visitors and users about react-builder

[sruthiragupathy]

Hi, can i try this one?

Hey,
Can I take this up?

[amanjagdev]

Sure @sruthiragupathy and @aravind-korada but if you both could explain the approach that you would follow to add that service... because this is a live stable release and any wrong move could have breaking changes.

Just want to know the approach :)

[aravind-korada]

Can track number of visitors using componentDidMount and number of users whenever someone clicks creat app.

Can store the values in a DB or a file.
File would be a better option I think.
or
You can suggest where to store that values.

can i use node to solve your issue?

we just need an api.....and can u provide the ui for the badges?..the api should be publicly accessible and will be hit when the page loads......we need to save the user's ipaddress in a database and donot recount them once added in the database . Then the number of visitors will be the total users in the database, i think we need another api, which wil be hit when create app is selected which will just inclease the count in the database

@Sayan-dev In your approach, we are making a totally new API just for the sake of analytics,
We would just be storing some sort of object (Visitor's data) right so this seems a bit overkill for the task to me.

@aravind-korada This project is made using hooks and no class-based component is used and secondly where will you be storing that file and how will you access that in live version

Look we need to store the data somewhere and using a db is the best solution right?

Surely your point is justified, Although I would suggest something lighter.
There is nothing wrong with your approach I just feel like that we would need to host one API in order to count the user.

If anyone of you can try and implement in a lighter way ...
Pull Requests are always welcome.

Best and optimised approach will be merged.

I'm willing to give this a crack @amanjagdev . I plan to implement this using an API I found which allows for the necessary functionality to be implemented.

All that needs to be done is to create a function that fetches the API, and then render the result to the DOM.

@bobbasworld Sounds great to me...
Try implementing it without any breaking changes and I would be really happy If you could pull this off :)
Make a PR After you are done and then I can review it.

@amanjagdev where do you want to display the counts? Please share a screenshot

@bobbasworld
Somewhere near these arrows ... Where ever it fits nicely with the feel of the application.
