Thyme, restart timer on login . Option request.

[Koten-Kostiantyn]

Hi, I know you are not working on this project anymore, but, it would be great to add feature to restart timer every time you login to your mac.

It is great feature when you need to track your time sitting in front of your mac. You can see on timer, if time goes above 50min - you should make some movement)

I am sure it's not a big deal to add such option, so, I hope someone will add it.

It took some time, but i made a script on python for this, it's like a workaround for this issue. Hope it will be fixed)

#!/usr/bin/python
import Quartz
import datetime
import subprocess


def do_func_on_lock_or_unlock(unlock_f=None, lock_f=None):
# """This function will continiously monitor if your screen is locked or unlocked
# On action(lock/unlock) it can execute any given function, which you can pass as parameter to this function"""

    def check_if_unlocked(past_lock_status, current_lock_status):
        return past_lock_status == True and current_lock_status == False

    def check_if_locked(past_lock_status, current_lock_status):
        return past_lock_status == False and current_lock_status == True

    print 'Currently screen is unlocked(should be), we will send you any updates!'
    mem = False
    unlock_time =  datetime.datetime.now().replace(microsecond=0)
    while 1:
        d = Quartz.CGSessionCopyCurrentDictionary()
        lock_status = 'CGSSessionScreenIsLocked' in d.keys()
        if check_if_locked(mem, lock_status):
            mem = lock_status
            print 'Screen was locked'
            # lock_time = time.ctime(d['CGSSessionScreenLockedTime'])
            lock_time = datetime.datetime.now().replace(microsecond=0)
            time_diff = lock_time - unlock_time
            print 'You was working for ' + str(time_diff)
            if callable(lock_f):
                lock_f()
        if check_if_unlocked(mem, lock_status):
            mem = lock_status
            print 'Screen was unlocked'
            unlock_time =  datetime.datetime.now().replace(microsecond=0)
            time_diff = unlock_time - lock_time
            print 'You was absent for ' + str(time_diff)
            # print unlock_time
            # print d['CGSSessionScreenLockedTime']
            if callable(unlock_f):
                unlock_f()


def asrun(ascript):
    ascript = """tell application "Thyme"
       stop
       start
    end tell"""
    # "Run the given AppleScript and return the standard output and error."
    osa = subprocess.Popen(['osascript', '-'], stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
    return osa.communicate(ascript)[0]


script = """tell application "Thyme"
    stop
    start

def thyme():
    asrun(script)

do_func_on_lock_or_unlock(thyme)

Also, If you save it as Automator Application (choose Run bash script, choose python)
You can add this app as login item, and don't worry about this thing forever =)
