Contribuir Funcionalidade

Hi
I’ve made a simple plugin to display how many visitors are visiting a topic.

This plugin calculates visitors based on session id, so it will not increment the total viewer data if there is multiple browser tabs opening same topic.
It will track user when entering or leaving to another topic, but it can’t update the data if user close the browser tab. However it’s not a big issue, I already have plan for that, I can set expire time for each tracked session and use heartbeat system to check that user still viewing the topic.

I will start to add that functionality and some test after GSOC student apply deadline, so the background of why I create this plugin is because I need more familiarize my self with Discourse.
Few days ago I sent a GSOC Proposal for ‘Webhook for Discourse events’, but I still have no feedback from mentors, and I can’t find who is the mentor, so please let me know who is the mentor so I can contact with him.
Based on this groundwork, I want to propose ‘See who’s writing’ GSOC idea.

I know it’s not useful plugin, but I will very appreciate every feedbacks for this plugin.

I don’t know why you got no feedback, @erlend_sh is in charge of that.

Desculpe o atraso na revisão, Saiqul. Eu já enviei um comentário na seção de revisão ontem; o aplicativo do GSoC não envia nenhum tipo de notificação sobre isso?

Trabalhar em um plugin como este para demonstrar suas habilidades é uma abordagem muito boa! :thumbsup: Você deve submetê-lo ao diretório Customization > Plugin se conseguir deixá-lo funcional.

It’s OK, I understand you must have been busy. I want to say thanks to you of your time for reviewing my proposal.
I just checked my email, my proposal file on google docs, and GSoC site, but I can’t find your review. Could you tell me more where you submitted your comment please?

OK absolutely will do.

Oh man! Good!
Maybe, finally, we will enjoy a lot of features that have many forums!

You’re going to expand this features?

Claro, vou finalizar a funcionalidade básica em breve e enviá-la para o diretório Customization > Plugin, para que eu possa receber qualquer revisão ou feedback de você, se não se importar.

Hi @sam

I have read your message_bus library to complete the basic functionality of this plugin
I’ve tried some ways, but the way that works is by add some method on MessageBus middleware
please take a look at this gist.
how do you think? Would it be a problem for MessageBus performance or something awful?

Quero saber quantos visitantes, logados e anônimos, estão visualizando meu fórum neste momento.
Esse plugin pode servir para esse propósito?
Ou você sabe de alguma outra maneira?

Seria muito bom se houvesse uma opção para mostrar (ou ocultar) esse número aos usuários.
