Not being able to recognize data-path?

[VirenMohindra]

Am I missing something? I cannot analyze the contents of the package after downloading and unzipping the email from Discord, it throws a directory not available when I can definitely cd into it.

[Brainicism]

Hey @VirenMohindra Not immediately sure what's wrong, but could you try to use a relative path rather than absolute for now? Will look into it in the meantime.

[VirenMohindra]

Moved the package file into the DiscordDataParser-master directory and still no luck.

[Brainicism]

That error is thrown if either:

messages_path = "#{data_path}/messages"
activity_path = "#{data_path}/activity/analytics"

return false when passed into File.directory?, which should return true.. Could you try commenting out activity_analyzer.rb:22 and messages_analyzer.rb:18? Perhaps that check is failing unnecessarily.

Found a regression possibly related to this. Working on it now EDIT: Was unrelated

The discord package I received Sep 1 2018 had the following directory structure:

package
+-- account
|   +-- user.json
+-- activity
|   +-- modeling
      |   +-- events-2018-00000-of-00001.json
|   +-- reporting
      |   +-- events-2017-00000-of-00001.json
      |   +-- events-2018-00000-of-00001.json
|   +-- tns
      |   +-- events-2018-00000-of-00001.json
+-- messages
|   +-- multiple 18 digit integer folder name(s)
      |   +-- channel.json
      |   +-- messages.csv
|   +-- index.json
+-- programs (empty folder)
+-- README.txt
+-- servers
|   +-- multiple 18 digit integer folder name(s)
      |   +-- audit-log.json
      |   +-- guild.json
|   +-- index.json

Note, I've recently started using Discord heavily but I have had an account since Tue Nov 14, 2017.

Not sure if that had anything to do with this issue.

I do not have an analytics folder in the activity folder.

[VirenMohindra]

After commenting out activity_analyzer.rb:22 it seems to add up.

I get this error after running $ ruby app.rb --data-path=package

Begin parsing activity... No such file or directory @ dir_initialize - package/activity/analytics`

[Brainicism]

That's interesting, I just kinda assumed discord has been collecting this data from the beginning. Does the app work fine if you remove @activity_analyzer from app.rb:41?

[VirenMohindra]

Commenting out @activity_analyzer from app.rb:39 and app.rb:41 just divides by 0...

Whats your discord tag? I'd love to work on this project and would like a tighter feedback loop.

I can provide my package folder privately for debugging purposes.

[Brainicism]

That would be appreciated if you don't mind. Feel free to remove most of your messages (since I don't think that's specifically the cause here, maybe leave one or two for sanity). Email is [redacted] . Won't be able to look into it until tomorrow though.

[Brainicism]

Issue is related to the lack of activity data in the backup. My hypothesis is that this setting determines whether or not you have that data.

https://github.com/Brainicism/DiscordDataParser/tree/fix/activity-folder-doesnt-exist-51 addresses this. Will need further work to remove the activity related charts from the output html
