Does this work on a Mac?

[jacquesnoris]

Sorry, I'm a total newbie, TTwatch looks great, exactly what I was looking for, any chance to get this running (pun intended ;) on a Mac?

[ryanbinns]

I don't have access to a Mac and I've never done any software development (and never really even used) a Mac, so I have no idea at all. It may be able to be done, but I won't be doing it.

Some time ago I had no problem compiling on Mac, but that was *really* a while ago... Pozdrawiam serdecznie & Best Regards & Mit freundlichen Grüßen, -- :: *Łukasz Rżanek* czw., 25 kwi 2019 o 03:18 Ryan Binns <[email protected]> napisał(a):

Okay, thanks for your answers!

[sanderevers]

Just compiled it on MacOS Monterey without problems. Installed the dependencies (cmake, openssl, curl, libusb, protobuf, protobuf-c) via Homebrew.
Only thing is that ttwatch only works using sudo (can't access the USB device otherwise).
Glad I can keep using my TomTom Spark Music like this despite the discontinuation. Thanks a lot developers!

Hey !
What do you mean by "ttwatch only works using sudo" ? what are the instructions you wrote ?

[Lenahic]

@sanderevers : I guess I have managed to open the app using "sudo open TomTomWatch.jar", yet, the software doesn't detect the watch ...

[sanderevers]

I don't know what TomTomWatch.jar is, but it has nothing to do with the ttwatch software in this repo. To install ttwatch on a Mac you first need to install the Homebrew package manager and then use that to install the dependencies:

brew install cmake openssl curl libusb protobuf protobuf-c

Then

git clone https://github.com/ryanbinns/ttwatch
cd ttwatch

and follow the build instructions which should install ttwatch into /usr/local/bin. You can test if that went right by just running

ttwatch

and see if it prints a help text.
If that works, you should be able to plug in your watch and do

sudo ttwatch --list-history

to see your latest activities on the watch. At least, this is what worked for me (on MacOS Monterey). Hope it does the trick for you too.

I started from scratch after my last message and I'm stuck at the "make" command of the build process that always lead to errors :
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"_protobuf_c_message_free_unpacked", referenced from:
_root_container__free_unpacked in libttbin.a(activity_tracking.pb-c.c.o)

and 4 other errors like this :

And i also have this error about the 'sprintf' function :
ttwatch/src/libttwatch.cpp:1011:5: warning: 'sprintf' is deprecated: This function is provided for compatibility reasons only. Due to security concerns inherent in the design of sprintf(3), it is highly recommended that you use snprintf(3) instead. [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
sprintf(timestr, "%s %d. %s %02d:%02d:%02d %04d",

[sanderevers]

I don't know much about C, but my guess is it cannot find the protobuf-c headers. I noticed a typo in my brew install instructions (I wrote libusd instead of libusb), maybe that's the reason. Can you try brew install cmake openssl curl libusb protobuf protobuf-c again and do a new build?

[Lenahic]

done but it doesn't change anything. Yet, running brew instal cmake etc ... I've some errors about the formula used :

It looks like it's fine but it's not ...

[sanderevers]

Yes, your packages look fine. The cmake formula is also the one I have installed. I don't know what's wrong then...

[Lenahic]

I managed to create all folders (ttbincnv, ttwatchd ...) manually and complete all the installation using "-i" to ignore errors. These folders are empty (normal ?)

Also, I complete the last instruction (sudo make install) and I found ttwatch into /usr/local/bin with all other files. All files previoulsy mentionned are still empty
When i try "ttwatch" instruction i've got "zsh: permission denied:"
And when i try : "sudo ttwatch" i've got "sudo: ttwatch: command not found"
:'(

[sanderevers]

@Lenahic today I tried to install ttwatch on a clean MacOS Sonoma and got the same error. And I found the solution!

brew install pkg-config

After that, the build process worked.

[sanderevers]

Also, to update the GPS data, I needed to create a file /etc/ttwatch.conf with the following line in it:

EphemerisURL=https://gpsquickfix.services.tomtom.com/fitness/sifgps.f2p{DAYS}enc.ee

I first tried to put this in ~/.ttwatch but for some reason that doesn't work.
