MVP: Manual Sleep Tracking App

[nelsonic]

There are many apps https://github.com/dwyl/sleep/issues/8 and wearable devices https://github.com/dwyl/sleep/issues/7 that people can use for sleep-tracking. The issue is that these have a cost and the people using them have no control of their data.

I want to build the bare minimum interface for capturing/tracking sleep. At it's most basic, a sleep tracker is just a stop-watch https://github.com/nelsonic/stopwatch But rather than simply discarding the start and stop times, we record them.

Todo

• [ ] Sketch the most basic interface for capturing data
  • [ ] Should be "Dark Mode" by default to minimise LED light from device. i.e. light text on a dark background
  • [ ] Should be Mobile First as this is the device most people look at last/first thing.
• [ ] Describe the schema for storing the data including person_id using auth_plug for authentication!
• [ ] Build a Basic Phoenix App to capture start and stop times for sleep
• [ ] Integrate Authentication via auth_plug
• [ ] Add ability to add Comments [Later!]
• [x] Deploy to Heroku? https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps/sleepdev
• [ ] Start using it to capture my own data!

Dependent on:

• [x] auth deployment: https://github.com/dwyl/auth/pull/173

My plan is to write this out as a tutorial that a complete beginner can follow similar to all of our others.

Thinking of just using Google Docs / Draw.io to wireframe this ... see: https://github.com/dwyl/learn-wireframing

Simon has been implementing auth in the LiveView Chat app: https://github.com/dwyl/phoenix-liveview-chat-example/pull/16/files

I think we will do it slightly differently in this Sleep App because I don't really want to allow "anonymous" use. API Key: https://authdev.herokuapp.com/apps/3 🔑

I feel like my lack of sleep - and crucially my poor sleep communication - is holding me back in life. See: https://github.com/dwyl/sleep/issues/46 So I'm bumping up the priority on this and moving it to "In progress" so I will chip away at it over the coming weeks.

Can you tell what it is yet? 😜

(have to restart my Mac to install updates ...)

I'm keen to use our "Prod" Auth instance for this so that there is zero start-up/wait time for using this twice-a-day app.

[nelsonic]

Deployed the "Prod" version to Fly.io https://auth.dwyl.com which means that Auth has zero startup time. So going to use that to make this mini app.

Tried to git push the code I wrote over the weekend as need to close all my non-work tabs to focus on work-work ... Get the following error:

From googling, it looks like GitHub is having a hickup: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71514374/im-trying-to-git-push-some-changes-and-i-get-this-internal-server-error https://github.com/isaacs/github/issues/1253 https://www.githubstatus.com/

Just going to close all the windows and hope that my Laptop doesn't die while GitHub is not working ... ⏳

Will continue with this mini side-project on the weekend. 🤞
