# DSpace Statistics API [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/ilri/dspace-statistics-api.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/ilri/dspace-statistics-api)
DSpace stores item view and download statistics in a Solr core for use in its user interfaces, but does not expose this information externally via any APIs. The DSpace 4+ [REST API](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/REST+API), for example, only exposes information about communities, collections, item metadata, and bitstreams. This project contains an indexer and a [Falcon-based](https://falcon.readthedocs.io/) web application to make the statistics available via simple, fast REST API.
DSpace stores item view and download events in a Solr "statistics" core for use in its user interfaces, but does not expose this information externally via any APIs. The DSpace 4+ [REST API](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/REST+API), for example, only exposes information about communities, collections, item metadata, and bitstreams.
You can read more about the Solr queries used to gather the item view and download statistics on the [DSpace wiki](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Solr).
