SimpleActivity is a sample application which demonstrates the usage of the Activity Monitor API in Windows Phone 8.1. This application shows different activity types the user has performed during the current day. The user is able to see the activities from the last seven days as well zoom the activity graph by using the application bar buttons.
- Instructions
Learn about the Lumia SensorCore SDK from the Lumia Developer's Library. The example requires the Lumia SensorCore SDK's NuGet package but will retrieve it automatically (if missing) on first build.
To build the application you need to have Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone SDK 8.1 installed.
Using the Windows Phone 8.1 SDK:
- Open the SLN file: File > Open Project, select the file
SimpleActivity.sln - Remove the "AnyCPU" configuration (not supported by the Lumia SensorCore SDK) or simply select ARM
- Select the target 'Device'.
- Press F5 to build the project and run it on the device.
Alternatively you can also build the example for the emulator (x86) in which case the Activity Monitor will use simulated data (and no history is available with the default constructor used).
Please see the official documentation for deploying and testing applications on Windows Phone devices: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg588378%28v=vs.92%29.aspx
- Implementation
The main functionality is in the MainPage.xaml.cs file, which demonstrates the usage of Activity Monitor API that is initialized (if supported).
The API is called through the CallSenseApiAsync() helper function, which helps handling the typical errors, like required features being disalbed in the system settings. In the Initialize() function is added compatibility check for devices that have different sensorCore SDK service.
UpdateScreenAsync() returns activity types that the user performed during the current day or the last seven days. Calling the GetActivityHistoryAsync() method will return a list of activities occured during each hour in the current day. The user is able to zoom the activity graph by using the application bar button.
