Still getting MemoryError after installing a 64bit version #27

Closed askaraboz closed 4 years ago

askaraboz commented 4 years ago

Does it mean I need a more powerful computer?

luka1199 commented 4 years ago

How big is you location file and how much RAM does your computer have? I will probably add an option to stream in the data in the future (will be much slower but better for memory).

askaraboz commented 4 years ago

Location file is 745Mb and I have 6Gb of RAM. I couldn't find an option to download location data for just a year or a month.

luka1199 commented 4 years ago

My file is 259 MB and I have 8GB RAM. For me the script uses 1.2 GB. So for you it would probably use about 3.4 GB which could exceed the memory limit.

luka1199 commented 4 years ago

I'll try to implement the stream option as soon as I have time. If someone else wants to implement it feel free to submit a pull request :smiley:

Pull (git pull) the new changes and run the command like this: 

python geo_heatmap.py -s <file>

Hey man I'm a beginner how do I implement git pull? Does that mean just reclone repository? THanks for your help!

luka1199 commented 4 years ago

You can just reclone the repository that works. Or alternatively if you want to do it properly (and if you have git installed) you can navigate to the directory containing the repository's files (as described in the instructions) and run the command 

git pull

I've tried the git pull option but its says 'git' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I'm dong it in the command prompt in the folder where I have repository files, is that correct?

askaraboz commented 4 years ago

Oh wait I don't have git installed. I guess I was doing it wrong then :)

askaraboz commented 4 years ago

It worked great after cloning repository. Took about 8 minutes or so. Thank you! How do I do it for only certain dates? do I just type in geo_heatmap.py - s [--min-date YYYY-MM-DD] [--max-date YYYY-MM-DD] Also is there a way to use googles maps or not?

luka1199 commented 4 years ago

To set a range of dates you run it like this:

python geo_heatmap.py -s --min-date <YYYY-MM-DD> --max-date <YYYY-MM-DD> <file>

(The square brackets in the usage output just mean that they are optional)

Example:

python geo_heatmap.py -s --min-date 2017-12-01 --max-date 2018-05-10 locations.json

Right now Google maps is not supported but will be maybe added in the future.
