Add a general counter API

Created on 17 December 2006, over 17 years ago

Updated 6 May 2024, about 2 months ago

Currently, node accesses are tallied in {node_counter} and all hits globalized in {accesslog}. However, modules building pages that are not nodes (like a dynamic graph) might want to have its access count tallied too.

Therefore a useful feature would be for statistics.module to include an API for modules to register hits so that they could be tallied and displayed later on just like node accesses.

Regarding storage, various scenarios come to mind, but the simplest seems to be adding a type column to node_counter in order to separately log actual nids for nodes, and virtual nids for module-generated pages. The URL-to-virtual-node mapping could be implemented by modules, or they could just pass the path to statistics.module so it would hash the path to a nid and back.

Statistics is approved for removal. See 🌱 [Policy] Deprecate Statistics module in D10 and move to contrib in D11 Fixed

This is now Postponed. The status is set according to two policies. The Remove a core extension and move it to a contributed project → and the Extensions approved for removal → policies.

It will be moved to a contributed Statistics project once the project is created and the Drupal 11 branch is open.

Would be nice if we could count the requests & responses to JSON:API per session and user.
