• I got a New Camera!!!

  atltvhead • 04/09/2020 at 21:53 • 0 comments

  I got an Insta360 video camera for the live stream highlights, and WOW! I have all shots, just edit how I please and have a much higher quality video! It really helps never missing anything, which I did a lot of when I was just using my phone.
  

  
  

  And here are the last of the phone only videos!

  
  

• New Website Database Code for Twitch Buttons

  atltvhead • 03/31/2020 at 12:58 • 0 comments

  Wix stopped allowing me to  add random users to my email crm contact list. A bug, but one that seems to persist even if "fixed" on there end. So it was back to the drawing board.
  

  
  Wix, does allow a database to be maintained and for the user to build an api to access different elements of one's site. So I set up my buttons to input into the database, based on mouse clicking see code:

  import wixData from 'wix-data';
  
  $w.onReady(function () {
  	//TODO: write your page related code here...
  
  });
  
  export function B4_rainbow(event, $w) {
      //look at database and see the number of results in it. 
  	wixData.query('interactions').find().then(result=>{
  		let record = result.items[0]; //item with values
  
                  // increment this by 1  
  		record.b_4++; // the rainbow effect is attached to b_4 value in my database
  		
                  console.log(record.b_4); //let me know i've done something
  
                  //save the new data back into the interactions database
  		wixData.update('interactions', record).then((results) => {
  			let item = results; //see item 
  			console.log(results);
  			} )
  		.catch( (err) => {
  			let errorMsg = err;
  		} );
  	});
  }

  Now to build the backend of my site, so I can access the values from an HTTP- request
  

  import {ok, notFound, created, serverError} from 'wix-http-functions';
  import wixData from 'wix-data';
  
  
  // function to read my database, and return a json string of all the elements of my database in it. 
  export function get_readInteractions(request) {
    let options = {
      "headers": {
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
      }
    };
  
    return wixData.query("interactions")
      .find()
      .then( (results) => {
        if(results.items.length > 0) {
          options.body = {
            "results" : results.items
  		}
          return ok(options);
  	  }
  	})
  }
  

   But I want a way to store my high fives I get out in person, back into my database. Luckily there is a way to do that as well! (please do not abuse this function, it only makes it seem that I've high fived people, anyway)
  

  export function put_highfives(request) {
    wixData.query('interactions').find().then(result=>{
  		let record = result.items[0]; //item with values
  		record.highfives++; // increment this by 1
  		console.log(record.highfives);
  		wixData.update('interactions', record).then((results) => {
  			let item = results; //see item 
  			console.log(results);
  			} )
  		.catch( (err) => {
  			let errorMsg = err;
  		} );
  	});
  

   I tried to do a put request at first but kept running into problems. I also don't necessarily know what my current high five count accurately. So I decided the best thing was to just alert my website that a high five has occurred and let it handle querying and incrementing the high five value. Later on I did find a way to put the high five information back into my glove and tvhead, through twitch, but another topic for another day.
  

  With the website now modified, time to re-write the portion of my python script that read my website. Now more email crawling.
  

  The http - request :
  

  https://www.natedamen.com/_functions/readInteractions

  def getData():
      try:
          rk = requests.get('https://www.natedamen.com/_functions/readInteractions')
      except Exception as err:
          print(traceback.format_exc())
  
      else:
          datak=rk.json()
          
      return datak
  
  #gets all of the unread messages from the inbox
  def dataCrawler():
      t=0
      mCheck = True
      datar=getData()
      oldR=datar
  
      while True:
          ot=time.time()
          diff = ot - t
      
          #I was getting a lot of errors and crashes, so I want to know what is failing. 
          #This section of code does that, and closes out this script. 
          try:
              datar=getData()
          except Exception as e:
              err=e.args[0]
              print('Data crawler down: '+ str(err))

  Episode 56 Is out!

• Video Upload!

  atltvhead • 01/21/2020 at 12:50 • 0 comments

  After many a month of forgetting to upload videos to youtube, I did it. Here is a big list of past few weeks of the atltvhead project!

  BOOM!
  

  Alright. I have also added some features to tvhead's high five glove! It now records high fives to my online database. I just have the base function working and still need to add in some extra code to switch rows for different dates, but its still collecting the total high fives since implemented!

  I'll do another log for that explanation.
  

• Video 51, Video format Changes

  atltvhead • 11/19/2019 at 21:24 • 0 comments

  Hey everyone. This project is continuing pretty well. I just rebuilt the front screen, because the old one got pretty gross. I'll include some build photos of that in a sec.
  

  Editing weekly videos, is just a little burdensome. So I am waiting until I live stream 3 times, then  I'll compile and edit the footage.
  

  Remember anyone can control the tv screen during the live streams. Follow me on Insta and on Twitch to see when I am streaming!
