Counter

This is a simple web counter written in Go. It uses a SQLite database for its data; the path is counter.sqlite.

It's accessible on configured port if not cofigured then it will be accessible on default port 9776.

The counter responds to three possible paths:

/: The root, will respond with a 200 and a small JSON message.

/count: The text counter, with a required path query parameter for the path you're interested in. Does not increment on requests. For example: http://localhost:9776/count?path=example.com/about

/count/counter.jpg: The counter image, with a required path query parameter for the path you're interested in. DOES increment on requests. For example: http://localhost:9776/count/counter.jpg?path=example.com/about
