I get timeout when viewing "Summary" for the entire year

JHN_LM · November 11, 2020, 9:46am

Hello,
When I click Summary and select “Yearly” I get a response from the browser like this:

Error: timeout of 30000ms exceeded. See dev console (F12) and/or server logs for more info.

The console shows:

Uncaught (in promise) Error: timeout of 30000ms exceeded
    at t.exports (createError.js:16)
    at XMLHttpRequest.f.ontimeout (xhr.js:95)

Can I adjust the timeout interval in an ini file or in the db connection?
PS. my pc hardware is fairly new, and my dataset is approx. 1,5 years in total since I started using the software.

Thanks in advance,

Since yearly is not in the official builds and you have changed the web-ui to enable that I assume that you can also change the aw-client-js code to increase the max request time.
It’s specified here

github.com

ActivityWatch/aw-client-js/blob/master/src/aw-client.ts#L69


    this.testing = options.testing || false;
    if (typeof options.baseURL === "undefined") {
        const port = !options.testing ? 5600 : 5666;
        this.baseURL = `http://localhost:${port}`;
    } else {
      this.baseURL = options.baseURL;
    }


    this.req = axios.create({
        baseURL: this.baseURL + "/api",
        timeout: 30000,
    });
}


public async getInfo(): Promise<IInfo> {
    return this.req.get("/0/info").then(res => res.data);
}


public async ensureBucket(bucketId: string, type: string, hostname: string): Promise<{ alreadyExist: boolean }> {
    try {
        await this.req.post(`/0/buckets/${bucketId}`, {

Hello,

I’m seeing this when selecting the monthly statistics even though it’s not a really slow computer.

I’m using Firefox, I’m on Windows 10 and it’s an i5-3550. Taskmanager doesn’t report high CPU load so I guess it’s just the amount of data or the filtering rules.

I think the limit should be increased. Do you want me to create an issue on github?

P.S.: ActivityWatch has been great so far! Thanks for all the work!

I keep getting “xiosError: timeout of 30000ms exceeded. See dev console (F12) and/or server logs for more info.”

I’m on Windows 11 Enterprise on a Dell Precision 7760 laptop with a 11th Gen Intel(R) Core™ i7-11850H @ 2.50GHz processor and 32GB RAM using Chrome Version 104.0.5112.

What’s the downside of increasing the timeout to, say, 60000?
