##Configuration

• onlinetime: The time (in minutes) while a visitor is still saved
• usermodel: Set this to the Auth Provider you're using:
  • Laravel: Visitor-Log will try to get the User with Laravel's Auth Class
  • Sentry: Visitor-Log will try to get the User with Sentry
• ignore: This is an array of pages that will be ignored by Visitor-Log. Example "admin/online"

##The Visitor Class The Visitor Class is an Eloquent Class but has a few extra methods, which will be explained here.

• static isOnline($id): Will check whether the user with $id is online
• static getCurrent(): Will get the current Visitor (based on their sid)
• static clear(): Buggy!! This removes all old visitors from the Database. You normally don't need to call this as this happens on every request.
• static loggedIn(): Will get all logged in Users
• static guests(): Will get all guests
• static findUser($id): Will get the User provided by $id (if online)
• static findIp($ip): Will get all visitors with $ip
• isUser(): Checks whether this visitor is a User
• isGuest(): Checks whether this visitor is a Guest

There are a few methods that wraps the specific Useragent method:

• is_browser(): Checks whether this visitor uses a browser
• is_robot(): Checks whether this visitor is a bot
• is_mobile(): Checks whether this visitor uses a mobile client
• is_referral(): Checks whether this visitor is a referral

The Visitor Class also provides some attributes:

• sid: A random String which is used to identicate the visitor
• ip: The IP of the visitor
• page: The Page where the visitor is
• useragent: The useragent of the visitor
• user: The UserID of the visitor
• The timestamps (created_at, updated_at)
• agent: Returns the useragent Instance used for this visitor
• agents: Returns the modified Agentstring (eg Opera 12.16)
• platform: Returns the operating System
• browser: Returns the Browser which is used
• version: Returns the Browser version which is used
• robot: Returns the Botname which is browsing your site
• mobile: Returns the mobile which is used
• referrer: Returns the referrer

##What's with an "Who's online page"? It's really easy to add one by yourself but Visitor-Log provides you already a very simple one: simply add @include("visitor-log::online") to your blade template where you want. And the best: It's ready to look nice with bootstrap
