Django app for recording daily user visits
This package supports Python 3.8 and above and Django 3.2 and above.
v2 added three new denormalised fields extracted from the User Agent string - device, os, browser - to make it easier to analyse directly in the database.
If you want to backfill historical data you will need to run the
management command update_user_visit_user_agent_data after the
upgrade.
This app consists of middleware to record user visits, and a single
UserVisit model to capture that data.
The principal behind this is not to record every single request made by a user. It is to record each daily visit to a site.
The one additional factor is that it will record a single daily visit per session / device / ip combination. This means that if a user visits a site multiple times from the same location / same device, without logging out, then they will be recorded once. If the same user logs in from a different device, IP address, then they will be recorded again.
The goal is to record unique daily visits per user 'context' ( where context is the location / device combo).
