cd Latte
python setup.py clean develop

Install (upgrade) from the latest source:

git clone git://github.com/flakas/Latte.git
cd Latte
python setup.py install

OR

Configuration files are saved in ~/.config/latte folder.

Statistics files are stored in ~/.config/latte folder (configurable)

Run the binary script either in foreground:

latte run

or in the background: latte run --silent &

To analyze log data you can use the built in analyzer:

Syntax: latte stats {windows,apps,tags} [OPTIONS]

• latte stats windows to analyze log data from past 24 hours by window title
• latte stats -h to print an help message

Time options:

• --time-all to analyze all known log data
• --time-seconds S to analyze log data created in last S seconds
• --time-days D to analyze log data created in last D days
• --time-weeks W to analyze log data created in last W weeks
• --time-months M to analyze log data created in last M months

By default latte stats will analyze logs created in past 24 hours.

Displaying:

• --display-all Display all found entries from the chosen time interval
• --display-limit N Display up to N top entries
• --display-time SECONDS Displays entries that have the accumulated time greater than SECONDS

Tags:

• --tags show stats for the comma-separated tag names

Latte can tag logs with custom tags for easier grouping and analytics.

Add tags:

• latte tags add <name> [--window-title=<regex>] [--window-class=<regex>] [--window-instance=<regex>] [--tag=<regex>]
• Filtering is based on Python's regular expressions using case-insensitive values;
• Window title, class, instance and tag filters are optional. All specified filters must match for the tag to be assigned.

Delete tags:

• latte tags delete <name>

Show all tags:

• latte tags show

Forcibly retag all logs:

• latte tags retag

This application requires:

• Python 3
• xprop to detect active window title for log tracking (sudo apt-get install x11-utils)

These dependencies are optional, but without them some functionality will not work:

• libX11.so and libXss.so to detect whether user is inactive (packages libx11-dev and libxss-dev, sudo apt-get install libx11-dev libxss-dev)

To build an Automatic Time Tracker for Linux that:

• keeps track of windows where the user spends time
• is aware if the user is active or not
• collects information for personal analysis and statistics
• can classify activities based on user defined rules
• ignores unwanted and sensitive information

All without any human intervention (except for the initial set up).
