Next version

[ninthfloor]

First off, I'd like to congratulate this beta version of WaTracker 1.0! I have been testing it out and would recommend some updates/bug fixes for the next version:

• When you hover a contact, along with the time and date, how many seconds online should be recorded along with it
• Real-time graph updating (rather than closing and reopening)
• Option to delete contacts (via checkboxes)
• Compare contacts timeline recordings (via checkboxes near contacts name on the left panel)
• Option to highlight specific contacts on "Online Users" screen so they show as bold/different color

Thank you for the suggestions and the kind words!

These features would definitely be nice to have.

Regarding the first one: I experimented with showing the length of the online range when hovering over it, but it turned to be a bit misleading because most long online-ranges are divided into smaller ranges (as WhatsApp periodically tries to close the connection) so if someone was online for an hour, each part of the online range will be at most 15 minutes long. It is possible to do something smarter and merge close ranges together, but at the moment I left it as it was before, and just made the output cleaner. (30238d7784f9c5969a81d91cc302a8d818887f9e)

The other features are bigger, and would take more effort to implement. WaTracker has grown to be a much bigger project than I originally expected. Currently I do not plan to continue actively developing WaTracker in the near future, but I've added these features to my idea list.

If you are interested in implementing theses features yourself, I will be happy to help you get familiar with the code-base and find the parts that need to be updated. (Pull requests welcome!)

Thank you again for your interest! Andrey
