Work in progress. Some information might not apply.

• open console in any Facebook tab (by pressing Alt+Cmd+J on a Mac)
• you can see logs of what is happening in the background with Data Selfie

• "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" - refresh the Facebook tab or close and open a new one

• url bar, type "ds" + tab
• available commands reset db, delete db, init db

• open console in background page or Data Selfie Me page (Alt+Cmd+J on a Mac)
• go to the "Application" tab
• Storage > IndexedDB
• click triangle to expand the subitems
• "DataSelfieLocalDB" contains all tracked data (this is not saved anywhere else(!), so be careful before clearing this storage)

• you can access settings, your general user data and the prediction

  • open console in background page or Data Selfie Me page (Alt+Cmd+J on a Mac)
  • copy chrome.storage.local.get(function(data){console.log(data)})
  • press Enter

• you can delete your prediction results to start new

  • open console in background page or Data Selfie Me page (Alt+Cmd+J on a Mac)
  • copy chrome.storage.local.remove(["alchemy", "applymagicsauce", "personality"])
  • press Enter

• npm install
• to make a build (folder) from src npm run build
• to make a build and watch for changes npm run buildw
• to make a build and minify etc (see webpack.config.js) npm run buildprod
  • use this to reproduce the code submitted to Chrome Web Store and Firefox Add-ons
  • for both Chrome and Firefox the content of the build folder is compressed and submitted to the developer platform

• in your Chrome browser go to chrome:https://extensions/ and tick the box that says "Developer mode"
• now click "Load unpacked extension..." and choose the build folder you just created
• you can now use Data Selfie, the extension icon (the eye) should now appear in your toolbar
• it is tracking if the eye is black (instead of gray) and if you can see a clock at the bottom left in your facebook window

• go to about:debugging and and click on "Load Temporary Add-on"
• choose manifest.json from the build folder and hit enter

• background.persistent: Event pages are not currently supported in Firefox. Background page has to be persistent

• posts like friendship anniversaries and memories are not considered, which sometimes leads to time being added to the previously looked at post
• when Facebook tab has been in the background for a while and you go back the clock might not show up again
• exporting your data can result in an invalid json file (that you can't import), when URLs contain double quotes " that are not escaped, you can do that manually by adding \ before the "
• more bugs commented in source code marked with "// FIX"

• refine the limit of data sent to IBM (Alchemy and Personality Insights), now only last 300 rows - add date (e.g. last 5 days from last time active)
• make tracking more stable (we need your help, please report any problems you run into)
• improve Your Data Selfie (Me) page front end code (responsive, handlebars or similar instead of jquery append - I know horrible)
