(NB: This plugin is mostly intended for developers and very technically inclined people)

The SQL Executer is a sample plugin that allows anyone to run SQL queries against TimeSnapper database.

The results can be copied (using Ctrl-C) from the results grid to e.g. Microsoft Excel for further processing.

For a definition of TimeSnapper's database model - see Database Model

Sample Queries

List available TimeSnapper tables:

select rdb$relation_name
from rdb$relations
where rdb$view_blr is null 
and (rdb$system_flag is null or rdb$system_flag = 0)
order by 1

Count the number of screenshots that have been taken since TimeSnapper was first installed:

 select count(*) from activity

Count the number of screenshots that are still existing:

 select count(*) from activity where filename is not null
