HUD Free, open source poker tracking software: FPDB - (Version 0.40.5) - Nov 14, 2013 - Page 29 - Poker Software -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

If anyone wants to run this on Mac OS X 10.5.5, Ihave following hints:

* Upgrade to developer tools 3.1.1 from http://connect.apple.com
* Upgrade X11 from http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki
* Use macports to build all dependencies.

For general instructions, use the guide on the wiki at http://fpdb.wiki.****************/Install+in+MacOSX

Is the HUD supposed to work on Mac OS X? When I start the HUD i get the little window, but I see no stats anywhere.

Where can I find more information about HUD_config.xml?

Thank you for your great work.

Maurice

OK. Probably the reason that you are seeing no stats is that the poker client windows are not being detected in the Tables.py module. There is an easy way to test this.

Open a Stars or FTP client poker table window. You don't have to sit at it.
Open Tables.py in your editor and find the line that looks like this:
Code:
```
print discover_table_by_name(c, "Howard Lederer")
```
about 8 lines from the bottom. It probably won't say "Howard Lederer" in your version.
Change "How..." to whatever your table is named, e. g., "Beatlejuice IV". Don't forget to save.
Run Tables.py. If you get a little report about the location and size of the table, then the table was detected OK. You will probably get some other info after the report.

If this didn't work then the job is to find where Tables.py blew up and fix it.

There is no real info written on the config file--I add or subtract something to that file every couple of weeks, so I have not been motivated to document it yet. You can run Configuration.py to get a little report on your HUD_config.xml file. That report will give you some clues as to what is in there and how to use it.

I have no python experience, but by browsing tables.py, it is obvious why the mac version displays nothing:
(line 241-244 tables.py)
def discover_mac(c):
""" Poker client table window finder for Macintosh."""
tables = {}
return tables

Just return an empty list.

I'll google around a little bit and see if i can come up with something which might work.

I think that when python looks at os.name to determine the OS, it actually gets 'posix' on OSX. If that is correct, then it is running down the discover_posix_by_name() function path. You can test that by running python from the console and checking what os.name returns.
Code:
```
$ python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Jun 15 2008, 18:24:51) 
[GCC 4.3.0 20080428 (Red Hat 4.3.0-8)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.name
'posix'
>>>
```
The discover_posix_by_name() function uses the xwininfo program to get the info for poker client table windows. I suspect that xwininfo works on OSX when you have Xwindows installed, but that it doesn't find native OSX windows, only the X ones.

If I am correct about all that(which is not certain), you would need to write some code to detect when running on OSX and then some OSX-specific code to find the windows.

You are correct:

Code:

Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Nov 17 2008, 23:26:04) 
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.name
'posix'

And indeed xwininfo doesn't return native windows.

Hi all,

I've been following this thread since it came up. I finally bit the bullet today and decided to download and install fpdb. I'm using Windows XP right now.

The install was fairly straightforward. I'm not a techie, but I managed to install fairly easy.

The problem I'm encountering is that I'm not sure if anything is working. I don't know if stats are available to be seen in the fpdb window or what. I have tried the auto-import with hud and the little window pops up, but no hud appears on any of my windows (playing on stars currently).

I realize I'm being very general here and asking noobish questions, but I'd like to be able to help as a tester for you folks.

Thanks in advance for your help and congratulations on the great start of a worthwhile project!

This means you dont have the graphing libraries installed - its not part of the default installer yet, so no big deal.

Hmm. I've seen this with ekdikeo several times - it shouldn't happen. It means that it has opened the hh file successfully, but in attempting to read the fist line it fails.

I don't know the root cause of this yet, i suspect a file flushing race but haven't been able to confirm yet.

Can you try editing the fpdb_import.py file - around line 180 is the line

firstline = self.lines[0]

Can you change that to the following and let me know how you go?

Code:

                try: # sometimes we seem to be getting an empty self.lines, in which case, we just want to return.
                        firstline = self.lines[0]
                except:
#                       print "import_fpdb_file", file, site, self.lines, "\n"
                        return

Thanks

Sorrow.

This has always been the issue with mac support - we need a tool or api that allows us to query the title (and details) of open windows. Find that and a mac hud shouldn't be too far away.

One though came to me reading the thread today - there used to be a way to fire up a mac app from within the X environment (open application.app ?) if done from a shell in the X windows environment, that might be enough for xwininfo to find it.

I doubt it... but its worth a shot.

Thanks for the help sorrow. My hands started importing right away with the fix you pasted in the thread. Woooohoooo!

Now for a silly/simple question. How do you move the HUD windows around, so that they'll fit in resized windows. I usually play 4 tables and use stars' tile feature. Unfortunately, my HUD doesn't line up at this point. I've tried the right click thing, but that didn't seem to work. Maybe if someone could get me step by step directions for configuring the hud, I'd be able to work it out on my own.

I don't see any detailed instructions on fpdb's sourceforge site for these kinds of tasks. Maybe that will be the way that I can contribute to the project. I don't really have the coding skills to keep up with you guys, but I can help dummies out (assuming this dummy "gets it.").

Thanks guys!

Excellent - it bugs me that this is an issue, but at least we have a workaround.

The current/alpha10 version allows you to left-click drag the hud windows around, but i'm pretty sure that didn't make the Alpha9 release.

Left double-clicking the windows should bring up the window decorations so you can move them - i have a feeling there is a bug in the Alpha9 release that prevents the top left hud window from being moved though. (double-click again should make the decorations disappear)

Some of this info has made its way onto the wiki, so is 'hidden' on the website. Other stuff just exists in the devs heads (why can't people read our thoughts...?). Our original webmaster has taken ill - we wish him well. His illness has left a bit of a hole in updating our public documentation, and any contributions are welcome.

Is this the reason that the import speeds are relatively slow for larger files? (I think I was at about 25 secs for 130 hands in one file. That's through mass import.)

also, is there a file where the default values for things like locations for where fpdb looks for hand history files?

I just tried the double click thing and it turned the hud windows into "microsoft windows" windows, but I couldn't do anything with them. Maybe I'm overlooking something.

I should be sleeping, but instead, I'm trying to get this to work better. Maybe tomorrow. Again, thanks for all the help.

There is a problem with tourney/sng imports - i've had some files with < 300 hands take 5 minutes or more. The cash game hands all seem to import at around .1 sec/hand on my machine.

Once i get done with (real life and...) the features i'm working on to assist supporting additional sites i'm going to take a better look at the tourney import stuff.

Alpha9 was the last release. Current git in ekdikeo/eratosthenes/my tree definetly contains the drag and drop code for the hud windows.

Apologies if I mislead, I believe it was Mike (not sure of 2+2 name) that was webmaster, and also the person who created the windows installer.

Steffen is still about, but real life has been taking up his development time.

HUD_config.xml contains those settings. HH_path is what you are looking for.

Thats the window decorations, with a larger window you can just drag the title bar. With smaller windows - left clicking the icon in the corner should give you the standard xp dropdown with a move option.

Not sure if it's made release yet, but yes, on the "moving the window around" thing ..

If you can't move them around by just holding the left mouse (or Mouse 1, if you're using a weird setup, like left handed) and dragging them around, then double click in the windows, and then it should bring up the title bar so you can drag it around. Double click again to remove the title bar. Right click on the "table hud" window in the upper left hand corner, and Save Positions.

to all of the FPDB contributors. I hope you get better soon Mike.

I'll try all of your suggestions re: moving HUD windows when I get home from work.

Changing the values in HUD_config.xml fixed the pesky problem of "where are my files located?"

Thanks!

He this looks really great, just installed it. I configured the hud_config.xml file with the password asked when installing mysql.

However when I double click the fpdb.py a dos window is openend, the last command I see is: reading hud_config.xml, then it closes and nothing happens.

This:

usually indicates that fpdb is trying to connect to mysql and mysql is not running. You probably just need to right click on "my computer", select manage, navigate to services and start mysql.

That must be it

However, I can´t start mysql service:

I dont have any knowledge on MySQL googled some but did not find a solution (yet) someone who can give me a tip on howto fix this?

This sounds like you are using Windows Vista. You need to uninstall mysql and reinstall following this how to (pdf file). If mysql doesn't show up in your add/remove software thingie, just reinstall following the linked how to and you should be fine.

If you're not using Vista, then look in the MySQL folder for it's config file .. open it up, and change any occurences of "C:\Programmes\" i think it is to "C:\Program Files\"

hey all.. i'm trying to establish if there's a link between having a significant number of hands in the database, and performance, or see if my problems lie elsewhere ..

I'm pushing just a bit under 40,000 hands in the database, and I'm getting some pretty large slowdowns after a short while of running.

Anyone else have near that, or more hands in?
