WakaTime Module for Waybar

Overview

The WakaTime Module for Waybar integrates WakaTime with Waybar, allowing you to track your coding activity and display the time spent coding directly on your bar.

Note: To use this module, you must have the WakaTime plugin installed in one of your IDEs. Additionally, a .wakatime.conf file should exist in your root directory.

Installation

1. Clone this repository into your Waybar configuration directory (typically ~/.config/waybar/):

# You can build a standalone executable file using Go, if desired
# Please ensure you have Go installed first
cd WakaTimeModule && go mod tidy && go build ./cmd/main.go
# This will generate an executable file named 'main' in the root of the module

2. Configure the module in your Waybar config.jsonc file:

"custom/wakatime": {
  "format": "{}{}",
  "return-type": "json",
  // Specify the path to the built executable
  "exec": "~/.config/waybar/WakaTimeModule/main en", // You can explicitly set the language for display (ru/en)
  // Alternatively, run the Go file directly
  // "exec": "cd ~/.config/waybar/WakaTimeModule && go run ./cmd/main.go en"
  "interval": 1200
},

Customization

Once installed, you can customize the module's appearance in your style.css file:

#custom-wakatime {
color: #a46df6; /* Adjust the color as desired */
border-radius: 20px;
margin-left: 5px;
border-right: 0px;
transition: 0.3s;
padding-left: 7px;
}
