This is a proof-of-concept implementation of duiqt/herta_kuru with a global statistics feed, this time, it's a little more secure!
Background
Around a while ago, the original website's global statistics screen had been removed due to network abuse. I started investigating ways to reimplement this (embarassingly I made a PR that just adds a single useless line in the API), so I spent a few more weeks finding a way to implement it, until I got bored, and then I picked it up again.
The new system I implemented works using the following:
- Using
BroadcastChannels - we can send SSEs to update the counter, and it only updates on mutation, so this is practically realtime. - No websockets, everything is done using Server Sent Events (SSEs) using event streams.
- No API is actually exposed to the user, so no one can just take the statistics endpoint and just spam it, because the statistics server is also the website.
- POSTing to the API is delayed by 5000ms (5s) before its submitted to the API in the frontend. While the provider does allow this, its due diligence to only submit it when there's inactivity.
Usage
Make sure to install Deno: https://deno.land/manual/getting_started/installation
Then start the project:
deno task start
This will watch the project directory and restart as necessary.
