DownloadCounter Release Rss Feed

Updated Release: VisualGeek.DownloadCounter 0.3.0.0 (Aug 20, 2008)

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 07:48:48 GMT

What needs to be done

@Web.config
- Add an appSettings key named "VisualGeek.DownloadCounter.ConnectionStringName" and specify in the value the key of the connection string the DownloadCounter should use.
- [Optionally] Add an appSettings key named "VisualGeek.DownloadCounter.Table.DownloadCounts" and specify the name of the table to use in the value of it. If you don't specify the this value it will assume that there's a table named "vg_DownloadCounts". I chose to prefix the table name, because it could be possible that I'll add several other statistics in further tables.
- [Optionally] Add an appSettings key named "VisualGeek.DownloadCounter.StorageType" to switch between XML and SQL storage mode. The new default value for this key is "XML" - alternative you can set the value to "SQL".

@Database
- Add a table (check out the web.config TODOs for it's name) with the following fields:
=> Id [uniqueidentifier]
=> RelativePath [varchar(MAX)]
=> CountedDownloads [bigint]
=> Date [datetime]

(You could also just execute the attached sql file, but could become more unhandy during the next updates).

UPDATED RELEASE: VisualGeek.DownloadCounter 0.1.0.0 (Jul 20, 2008)

This release allows you to simply add an assembly to your project, specify some configs and add a little bit markup to be able to display a list of downloads including their current download counts. There's a control available named "CountedDownloadButton", which helps you with the work in the repeater. You could do everything manually, but I recommend to just create a repeater, let my code bind the infos to it and just format the output as you wish.
The "CountedDownloadButton" automatically attaches an Click-event to log each click and add the file which the user requested to the HttpContext.Current.Response object. This works currently quite good in IE, but unfortunately the Firefox seems to need the Content-Type. This will be added shortly.
