The current schema is difficult to maintain and use, and forces me to build mumbo jumbo code that is confusing and poor in performance. It's also difficult to get started with since it's difficult to document for onboarding.

The current schema is:

class Entry {
  origin: string;
  lastVisit: Date;
  firstVisit: Date;
  [year]: {
    [month]: {
      [day]: number
    }
  }
}

This schema is not properly built, doesn't adhere to any SOLID principles, difficult to maintain, and is difficult to maintain. The new schema is:

class Session {
  date: Date;
  duration: number;
}

class Entry {
  origin: string;
  lastVisit: Date;
  firstVisit: Date;
  sessions: Array<Session>;
}

This will require an overhaul of the codebase to use the new schema.

Describe the bug
Instead of displaying the day's top 5 websites, it displays other websites. This is probably a problem with my Array.filter or reduce usage.

Check https://github.com/KL13NT/loggy/blob/master/src/browser-action/App.vue.

Having to view the full history log instead of a specific time range is not very useful. Add date selectors to select a specific range, and set the default to a month.

When the addon is first installed, a tab change needs to occur for it to detect changes and start tracking. Add a way for it to start tracking the focused tab immediately postinstall.

A settings page should be navigate-able by going to Addons > Loggy > Options. It should include the following for starters:

• An ignore list where users can ignore websites
• An option to ignore browser pages such as about:-prefixed pages

Chromim-based browser don't support the browser namespace. To be able to safely distribute this extension for Chrome, Edge, and others, I'd need to properly configure a setup for them.

Describe the bug
I don't really know. Needs further testing.

To Reproduce
Remain on the same website for a prolonged period of time.

Expected behavior
Should log all of it. Instead, it sometimes logs 3 hours out of a total 5.

I rely on the browser's window.focused to determine whether the user is idle or not. But this has one major flaw; if a user has the browser focused and goes idle it'll keep counting. This is an inaccuracy that could be mitigated using a content script that registers a global event listener for any user action, and based on a specific timeout, communicate the user's idle state to the background process.

As documented on the MDN page:

It's generally not possible to store other types, such as Function, Date, RegExp, Set, Map, ArrayBuffer, and so on. Some of these unsupported types will restore as an empty object, and some cause set() to throw an error. The exact behavior here is browser-specific.

The behavior on Firefox, luckily enough, stores Date as strings, but we need to serialize before updating data.

Currently the way users can view the log is by going to Menu > Addons > Loggy > Options. This is cumbersome. Adding a browser action to make it easier should be a priority. A simple button that opens up the log would be fine.

To do:

• Add a browser action
• Add a browser action page with simple statistics
• Show only today's statistics of top 5 websites
• Add a link to open the full log from the browser action
• Add a link to the settings page, this will initially be disabled

Is the extension available or will be available for chrome?
