app.py: Get item statistics from SQLite database
It is much more efficient to cache view and download statistics in a database than to query Solr on demand (not to mention that it is not possible to page easily with facets in Solr). I decided to use SQLite because it is fast, native in Python 3, and doesn't require any extra steps during provisioning (assuming permissions are ok).
CGSpace Statistics API
A quick and dirty REST API to expose Solr view and download statistics for items in a DSpace repository.
Written and tested in Python 3.6. SolrClient (0.2.1) does not currently run in Python 3.7.0.
Installation
Create a virtual environment and run it:
$ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.6 venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
$ pip install falcon gunicorn SolrClient
$ gunicorn app:api
Todo
- Ability to return a paginated list of items (on a different route?)
- Add API documentation
