How can you connect aw-watcher-input wth activity watcher?

[nck974]

Hello, how can I connect aw-watcher-input with activity watcher? I have:

1. Cloned the project
2. Installed poerty
3. Installed the watcher from the powershell as specified in the documentation.

Which further steps should I follow?

You should then just be able to run aw-watcher-input in the terminal and it'll start reporting to the ActivityWatch server.

You should see the bucket in the 'Raw Data' tab of the web UI.

I tried from powershell, and it seems it is not added automatically to the path. How could I do this manually?

Ah, you should then be able to run it with poetry run aw-watcher-input

Thanks I just tried and I get the following from the root of the folder:

poetry run .\aw-watcher-input\

Run the command exactly as I wrote it (don't add the .\ and \).

I assume that solved the issue, let me know if you find any other issues.

Closing.
