Extracts activity from History.db for OS X/macOS's Safari and plots how active I am on different days of the week.
I don't really know what this says about my behaviour and would like to process the data more in future versions to gain more insight.
- Download this script or
git cloneit so you have a local copy - Use Terminal to navigate to find main.py
- Type in
python main.py
Alternatively, if you download this to your Downloads folder, use python ~/Downloads/main.py
v0.1 Basic functionality added:
- Finds
History.dbfile from~/Library/Safari/automatically - Will catch if the database cannot be opened
- Converts NSDate timestamps for history data into day of the week
- Note that time zone differences are probably not correct since Safari likely looks to the system to determine the time and travelling users (like me) don't always update this immediately
- Matlibplot histogram works but is ugly
P.S. This is my first python script! I have a feeling it could be much faster since I suspect I did not use numpy to its full capabilities. Suggestions are welcome.
