FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package laravel-visits
Laravel Visits - simple drop-in package that records visits.
This is a small package that allows you to easily record visits to your models and / or custom URLs, either by using the included middleware or by using the provided helpers.
The package stores the visits in a separate table, so it doesn't bloat your existing tables.
This package makes use of PHP's inet_ntop and inet_pton functions to store the IP addresses in a binary format, reducing your database size.
The package tries to keep the visits table simple, with only the following data being stored:
- The IP address of the visitor
- An optional user ID, if the visitor is authenticated
- The platform (
desktop,phone,tablet,robotorother) (makes use of jenssegers/agent) - The referer (if any)
- The entity that's being visited
- The URL that's being visited (if not an entity) - by removing the current app URL from the string.
