Action Stats Library

This library includes functions and methods for creating/modifying and reading "action stats".

Interface

AddAction(json string) error

Public method used to add action and time for the action. The request is a JSON string in the following format:

{ "action": "someaction", "time": 10 }

The "time" field must be an integer > 0. This method may be called safely concurrently.

GetStats() string

Public method used to return the entire state of the actionMap as a JSON string. It will return an array of object where each object holds the action name and current average time for that action. This method may be called safely concurrently.

Example response:

[{"action":"jump","avg":85},{"action":"walk","avg":150}]

NewActionMap() *actionMap

Get a new instance of an actionMap. It won't hold any values until a request to AddAction is made.

StartServer(portnumber string)

Public function used to start the HTTP server. This server hosts two endpoints:

• GET /action-stats
• POST /action-stats When started, it creates a new actionMap, which is modified by successful requests to POST /action-stats.
