Shortend URL Public Statistics Page

See original GitHub issue

In Order to make a value for this App not to be another URL shortener, I believe we need to add some numbers.

As A short URL creator I need to track some statistics for the link I just created, I suggest the following number:

  • Number of Times this link was opened.
  • Geolocation, or list of Referrals where as this link was opened from.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Create a link details page at URL <domain>/<shortened_link>/stats.
  • this page should display the number of times this link was opened.
  • this page should display a brief of maximum 5 referral links that led to this link.
  • this page should be publicly accessible.

My work in progress, I had to add storage for counting the visits, and this took more than expected, I’ll push my work today

How would you do this count? I imagined creating a key with the following pattern: ${key}+count

Hey @JoaoVictor6, we are working to add another database to store authentication and details about every url. I don’t believe it’s the best practice to implement this kind of feature on Redis database.

We are still working on it, I hope we will finish soon 😮‍💨
