Automatic time tracking for commands in ZSH using wakatime.
It depends on wakatime CLI 6.0 or higher. Make sure you have configured wakatime API key in your ~/.wakatime.cfg file. If you use wakatime in other editors, this file may be already there.
-
python3 -c "$(wget -q -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wakatime/vim-wakatime/master/scripts/install_cli.py)"
to install wakatime CLI. -
For oh-my-zsh user:
-
cd ~/.oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins && git clone https://github.com/wbingli/zsh-wakatime.git
-
Edit your
.zshrc
file and addzsh-wakatime
to oh-my-zsh plugins
- For Antigen user:
antigen bundle wbingli/zsh-wakatime
-
Open a new terminal and type commands
By default all actions logged by the ZSH plugin for wakatime are associated with the Terminal project, if you would like the plugin to attribute the project based on either git repository or the last accessed project then set ZSH_WAKATIME_PROJECT_DETECTION
to true in your environment.
To enable:
- Edit your
.zshrc
- Add the line
export ZSH_WAKATIME_PROJECT_DETECTION=true
at the top of the file.
WakaTime plugins share a common config file .wakatime.cfg
located in your user home directory with these options available.
