# aw-watcher-utilization
[](https://github.com/Alwinator/aw-watcher-utilization/actions/workflows/build-release.yml)
[](https://github.com/Alwinator/aw-watcher-utilization)
An [ActivityWatch](https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch) watcher that monitors CPU, RAM, disk, network, and sensor usage. It is basically a [`psutil`](https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil) wrapper for [ActivityWatch](https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch). I have only left out some information that was too detailed.
It creates a data dump every `n` seconds. (`n` can be changed in the config, default 5 seconds). Here is an example data dump:

On supported devices, you also see fan and battery metrics.
## Installing
1. Download the latest release [here](https://github.com/Alwinator/aw-watcher-utilization/releases).
2. Unzip as `aw-watcher-utilization` folder.
3. Move the folder to the directly ActivityWatch is installed (depends on your setup). For example, on Windows: `C:\Users\\AppData\Local\activitywatch\activitywatch\aw-watcher-utilization`
4. Go to the [config directory](https://docs.activitywatch.net/en/latest/directories.html#config). In the `aw-qt` directory, find the `aw-qt.toml` file.
5. Add the `aw-watcher-utilization` to `autostart_modules` to enable auto-start. Make sure to remove the `#` before autostart_modules in case there are any. It should look like this:
`aw-qt.toml`:
```
[aw-qt]
autostart_modules = ["aw-server", "aw-watcher-afk", "aw-watcher-window", "aw-watcher-utilization"]
```
6. [Linux & MacOS only]: Make the executable file in the `aw-watcher-utilization` folder executable:
```
chmod +x ./aw-watcher-utilization
```
7. (Optional, but recommended) Enable custom visualizations (See next section)
## Custom Visualizations
### Setup
1. Add the following section to your `aw-server.toml` file in the [config directory](https://docs.activitywatch.net/en/latest/directories.html#config):
```toml
[server.custom_static]
aw-watcher-utilization = "/home/user/path/to/aw-watcher-utilization/visualization"
```
For example on Windows:
```toml
[server.custom_static]
aw-watcher-utilization = '''C:\Users\\AppData\Local\activitywatch\activitywatch\aw-watcher-utilization\visualization'''
```
2. Do not forget to change the path to your path and make sure you added it to `aw-server.toml` NOT `aw-qt.toml`.
3. Restart ActivityWatch
4. Add custom visualizations from the Activity Watch GUI: `Activity > Edit View > Add Visualization > Custom Visualization`
5. Enter `aw-watcher-utilization` for the watcher name and pick one of the following titles of the next section.
6. Enjoy!
### Visualizations
#### CPU
Title: `cpu_percent`
## Testing
Unfortunately, I have a limited number of computers, so bug reports are always very welcome!
