Seperating Stream Sessions #11

Closed dmegahan closed 9 years ago

dmegahan commented 9 years ago

A stream can end and begin on the same day, within a few hours of each other. This causes an issue where the 2 stream sessions are combined data wise, causing some weird graphs, see: https://plot.ly/~dmegahan/244/destiny20-04-2015/

Need to define a behavior where the file news are unique to the thread, instead of to the day. When a stream thread dies because of the stream going offline, not because of an error, we should output the graph and "lock" the csv file, so it isn't written to again.

Update: currently the output name for a stream session is the exact date and time the stream session was started. This isn't descriptive, and is hard to read/could be confusing. A better naming convention is needed.

Sessions are now implemented in the json file. Sessions are defined as blocks of time where a certain game is played, uninterupted.
