Collect traffic data for your Capsule

As everyone else around here, I love a good tracking of visitors.

Kidding... screw that.

However, I feel it's pretty good to know if your capsule gets any traffic at all

and which part of it people find it more interesting. Some may not care, some may.

This is why I've modified shavit to support sending traffic data into InfluxDB.

The code is available here:

https://sr.ht/~primalmotion/shavit

It does not collect any info other than the URL and the time of the visit. While

it would be possible to get the source IP, I don't think it's relevant. here's

an example of the data collected:

> select * from hits

name: hits

time url value
