This application tracks time spent on activities by providing data input for instrument and time practiced as well as for non musician-related events, such as household chores and engineering tasks. In the case of musical-practice entries, graphs are produced.
The app is multi-user and requires users to login. Clear any interfering login from the browser’s password manger if there’s trouble with the entered login being overwritten with another user/password pair.
- PostgreSQL
– Plan C uses the user-id of the process that runs racket. that user (probably you) must exist in Postgres with a default database. No password is used, but one can be configured in config/planc-cfg.scm.
- If you need a new user, to create a database user, log in as the database administrator (postgres on my machine) and run the script createuser –interactive <username>.
1.1 The user needs create-database permission.
1.2. Run psql as the new user but connect to the postgres database.
psql -U <username> postgres2.2 Now create the Plan C database, then exit.
CREATE DATABASE plan_c;
\q- Racket (see Caveats below.)
- Git clone this package.
- Use htpasswd (from Apache) to add a user to the password file (currently in the config dir as config/htpasswd)
2.2. You may user the passwd.guest file where “guest” is both the password and the userid.
- Check the config file: config/planc-cfg.scm If you wish to run in devel (vs production) mode, create the file “devel” in the main directory. Run the file http-server.rkt (with DrRacket or racket.)
- Run “make install” to create a data directory and fix up a few permissions.
- Run make run to start Plan C.
- After the plan_c database is created in Postgresql, use Dr. Racket to run http-serv.rkt.
Run: make install. Start the program with: plan-c, (or plan-c -g for the IDE) Browse: http://localhost:8008/ (production mode). Use port 8000 for devel mode.
You will have to install the following Racket packages in order to run the app:
- debug
- seq
- simple-svg
- yaml
Only tested on Gentoo GNU/Linux
