-# CGSpace Statistics API
-A quick and dirty REST API to expose Solr view and download statistics for items in a DSpace repository.
+# 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 events in a Solr "statistics" core. This information is available for use in the various DSpace user interfaces, but is not exposed 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.
 
-Written and tested in Python 3.6. SolrClient (0.2.1) does not currently run in Python 3.7.0.
+This project contains an indexer and a [Falcon-based](https://falcon.readthedocs.io/) web application to make the statistics available via simple REST API. 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).
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.5+
+- PostgreSQL version 9.5+ (due to [`UPSERT` support](https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/UPSERT))
+- DSpace with [Solr usage statistics enabled](https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/SOLR+Statistics) (tested with 5.x)
 
 ## Installation
-Create a virtual environment and run it:
+Create a Python virtual environment and install the dependencies:
 
-    $ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.6 venv
-    $ . venv/bin/activate
-    $ pip install falcon gunicorn SolrClient
-    $ gunicorn app:api
+    $ python3 -m venv venv
+    $ source venv/bin/activate
+    $ pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+## Running
+
+Set up the environment variables for Solr and PostgreSQL:
+
+    $ export SOLR_SERVER=http://localhost:8080/solr
+    $ export DATABASE_NAME=dspacestatistics
+    $ export DATABASE_USER=dspacestatistics
+    $ export DATABASE_PASS=dspacestatistics
+    $ export DATABASE_HOST=localhost
+
+Index the Solr statistics core to populate the PostgreSQL database:
+
+    $ python -m dspace_statistics_api.indexer
+
+Run the REST API:
+
+    $ gunicorn dspace_statistics_api.app
+
+Test to see if there are any statistics:
+
+    $ curl 'http://localhost:8000/items?limit=1'
+
+## Testing
+Install development packages using pip:
+
+    $ pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
+
+Run tests:
+
+    $ pytest
+
+## Deployment
+There are example systemd service and timer units in the `contrib` directory. The API service listens on localhost by default so you will need to expose it publicly using a web server like nginx.
+
+An example nginx configuration is:
+
+```
+server {
+    #...
+
+    location ~ /rest/statistics/?(.*) {
+        access_log /var/log/nginx/statistics.log;
+        proxy_pass http://statistics_api/$1$is_args$args;
+    }
+}
+
+upstream statistics_api {
+    server 127.0.0.1:5000;
+}
+```
+
+This would expose the API at `/rest/statistics`.
+
+## Using the API
+The API exposes the following endpoints:
+
+  - GET `/` — return a basic API documentation page.
+  - GET `/items` — return views and downloads for all items that Solr knows about¹. Accepts `limit` and `page` query parameters for pagination of results (`limit` must be an integer between 1 and 100, and `page` must be an integer greater than or equal to 0).
+  - GET `/item/id` — return views and downloads for a single item (`id` must be a positive integer). Returns HTTP 404 if an item id is not found.
+
+The item id is the *internal* id for an item. You can get these from the standard DSpace REST API.
+
+¹ We are querying the Solr statistics core, which technically only knows about items that have either views or downloads. If an item is not present here you can assume it has zero views and zero downloads, but not necessarily that it does not exist in the repository.
 
 ## Todo
 
-- Ability to return a paginated list of items (on a different route?)
-- Add API documentation
+- Better logging
+- Version API
+- Use JSON in PostgreSQL
+- Make community and collection stats available
+- Switch to [Python 3.6+ f-string syntax](https://realpython.com/python-f-strings/)

+        <p>This site is running the <a href="https://github.com/ilri/dspace-statistics-api" title="DSpace Statistics API project">DSpace Statistics API</a>. The following endpoints are available:</p>
+        <ul>
+            <li>GET <code>/</code> — return a basic API documentation page.</li>
+            <li>GET <code>/items</code> — return views and downloads for all items that Solr knows about¹. Accepts <code>limit</code> and <code>page</code> query parameters for pagination of results (<code>limit</code> must be an integer between 1 and 100, and <code>page</code> must be an integer greater than or equal to 0).</li>
+            <li>GET <code>/item/id</code> — return views and downloads for a single item (<code>id</code> must be a positive integer). Returns HTTP 404 if an item id is not found.</li>
+        </ul>
+
+        <p>The item id is the <em>internal</em> id for an item. You can get these from the standard DSpace REST API.</p>
+
+        <p>¹ We are querying the Solr statistics core, which technically only knows about items that have either views or downloads. If an item is not present here you can assume it has zero views and zero downloads, but not necessarily that it does not exist in the repository.</code>
