visualization doesnt work about aw-watcher-input HOT 13 OPEN

Did you follow the instructions in the README? I notice they are a bit lacking, and could probably explain better how to configure things.

How are you opening the visualization? What does the dev tools say about the failing request?

from aw-watcher-input.

yeah, i did follow the instructions in readme

and I found that also need to install pug-cli ,in order to run the command in makefile, you may add this step into the readme

i opened the index.html file under aw-watcher-input\visualization\dist .Is this wrong? I cant find another way because readme doesnt mention that

the dev tools shows like this

can you send me the built files(the packed aw-watcher-input and bundle.js), because the files i built manually using makefile dont work
thank you very much!

from aw-watcher-input.

and i cant find the graph in activites page

any suggestion?

Hmm, the error "Access to XMLHttpRequest at ... from origin null has been blocked" seems weird. Not sure how the origin gets set to null, maybe because you're trying to open the HTML visualization directly in your browser? (don't do that, it won't work, unless you disable CORS checks on the server entirely, but that opens a security hole)

To get the visualization to show in the Activity dashboard vis menu, you need to run a more recent version of aw-server. Either v0.12.0b1, or latest from source.

i have the same issue on Version: v0.12.0b1

issue persists on Version: v0.12.1 https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/cos-dev-attachments/ShareX/notsimon/iYwpkRkQZynbTVBL.mp4

aw-server log gives this:

I just tried this watcher again, and could get it working.

Pushed a new commit with some README improvements, should clarify some things.

from aw-watcher-input.

Open issue for me as well. Error reported is: Static content: index.html of watcher: aw-watcher-input not found!.
I did follow all the steps as described in the README.md. Posting more info:

• npm / make installed everything properly; I launched the event logger and I can see it logs the events and save them into the db
• This is how my /Users/xmachine/Library/Application Support/activitywatch/aw-server/aw-server.ini looks like:

host = localhost
port = 5600
storage = peewee
cors_origins =

[server-testing]
host = localhost
port = 5666
storage = peewee
cors_origins =

[server.custom_static]
aw-watcher-input = "/Applications/ActivityWatch.app/Contents/MacOS/aw-watcher-input/visualization/dist/"

• index.html is inside the dist folder

Any thoughts?

@leoentersthevoid You are editing the wrong/old config file. We switched to toml config in v0.11.0 (iirc).

from aw-watcher-input.

Update

I messed up the config. After the correction, it works. Posting it here for tracking:

[server]
host = "localhost"
port = "5600"
storage = "peewee"
cors_origins = ""

[server.custom_static]
aw-watcher-input = "/Applications/ActivityWatch.app/Contents/MacOS/aw-watcher-input/visualization/dist/"

[server-testing]
host = "localhost"
port = "5666"
storage = "peewee"
cors_origins = ""

@ErikBjare, thanks! Just switched to .toml, which has the following config now:

[server]
host = "localhost"
port = "5600"
storage = "peewee"
cors_origins = ""

[server-testing]
host = "localhost"
port = "5666"
storage = "peewee"
cors_origins = ""

[server-testing.custom_static]
aw-watcher-input = "/Applications/ActivityWatch.app/Contents/MacOS/aw-watcher-input/visualization/dist/"

It doesn't seem to solve the issue. I'm currently running the v0.12.1, if that helps.

from aw-watcher-input.

@leoentersthevoid Are you running in testing mode?

If not, you put the config under the wrong section (should be under server.custom_static, not server-testing.custom_static).

Edit: just now say your edit (didn't see that from the notification email), nice you got it working!
