First start by adding this gem to your Gemfile:
gem 'sharing_counter'And then execute
$ bundle
For a Rails app, your config/initializers/sharing_counter.rb file should look like this:
SharingCounter.configure do |config|
config.vk = { app_id: ENV['VK_API_KEY'] }
endfacebook[:measurement] can assume any value from 'total_count', 'like_count', 'comment_count' and 'total_count'. The default is 'total_count'
