Closed jamesholland-uk closed 4 months ago

jamesholland-uk commented 1 year ago

Version

Known issues

Existing issues

What operating system are you using?

macOS

Operating System Version

macOS Monterey 12.6

Reproduction steps

  1. Use Stretchly on a daily basis on an M1-based Mac, with the "Monitor system idle time" option enabled
  2. Do something else in the room, leaving the Mac idle
  3. See the breaks continuing to appear on the screen whilst you are not using the Mac keyboard or mouse ... Reproduces how often: Continually

Expected Behavior

Whilst the Mac is idle, the breaks should not continue.

Actual Behavior

Whilst the Mac is idle, the breaks continue.

Relevant log output

Today's logfile. I left the room completely from approximately 09:15 to 10:05 so the Mac should have been idle.

Additional information

This used to work on my previous Intel-based Mac, I believe it has broken since moving to M1-based Mac.

I want to disable the postponement feature, but I can't because the timing of breaks does not match up with my active time at the Mac.

Code of Conduct

hovancik commented 1 year ago

Sorry, but I don't have m1 to check on :(

It would be great if someone could check whether getSystemIdleTime from electron is working correctly on mac m1 https://www.electronjs.org/de/docs/latest/api/power-monitor#powermonitorgetsystemidletime.

Also, maybe some app is making the system not being "idle"? I noticed such a behavior in the past with some music players and such

jamesholland-uk commented 1 year ago

Thanks @hovancik. If there is an easy way for me to check any of this for you on my M1 machine, let me know.

hovancik commented 1 year ago

You could try running this repo: https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start and edit the code to print powerMonitor.getSystemIdleTime() every few seconds. When you think your system is on idle, you can check what does the electron (and therefore stretchly) thinks.

jamesholland-uk commented 1 year ago

I tried and failed for an hour or so, seems my Javascript is not very good, sorry!

hovancik commented 1 year ago

No worries, this things sometimes get fixed with new versions of Electron, so let's see

rlue commented 5 months ago

I am on an M1 Mac Mini. I have confirmed that powerMonitor.getSystemIdleTime() works in Electron (and so the upstream tag can be removed from this issue, and/or this issue may be closed):

$ git clone https://github.com/electron/electron-quick-start
$ cd electron-quick-start
$ sed -i "s/\( } = require('electron')\)/, powerMonitor\1/" main.js
$ sed -i 's/^}$/\n  setInterval(() => console.log(powerMonitor.getSystemIdleTime()), 1000)\n&/' main.js
$ npm install
$ npm start

> electron-quick-start@1.0.0 start
> electron .
