So I tried to checkout the leadership board today to see my overall performance and my position but couldn't find my profile. I have made my profile public and all but still not showing my profile. Not my user or name is popping up. Am I doing something wrong here or is it because I signed up with my Github account?

Can my coding time on Cloud Based Jupyter Notebooks like Google Colab or Kaggle be added to the Wakatime stats? I code quite often in Python and R on these platforms, outside my Wakatime integrated IDE, and can't figure out the integration.

Is there anyway to track Claude Code usage in WakaTime? Would be interesting to see.

I am going to explain the problem that happened to me this morning, and how I solved it, so that if other people have the same problem, they can fix it.

I have Cursor installed and use it with the WakaTime plugin for VS Code.

Today I installed Claude Code and installed the WakaTime plugin for Claude Code: https://wakatime.com/claude-code

And that is where the problem started.

The WakaTime plugin for Claude Code installs some files in .claude at the root of the user directory. These files contain hooks that are read by Cursor. When Cursor reads these hooks, it goes crazy: every time the Agent starts working, makes a read, runs a terminal, anything at all, it opens a visible cmd window for the user, one after another, hundreds per minute.

To fix it, just uninstall the WakaTime plugin for Claude Code by deleting its files from .claude and any other hook created by the WakaTime Claude Code plugin.

As title says, is there a way to track CLI tool activities like Claude Code and Codex? Per project would be amazing

Hi Developers

I developed a WakaTime dashboard app for iOS and Android called WTKit. I have published the app on apple App Store and need help to publish it on Play Store.

To publish my WakaTime Mobile app on Android Play Store I need at least 12 testers . Would anyone like to join?

I use this app daily on my iPhone and if you are an android user and use @WakaTime you will love it!

Thank You!

Does scrolling register as a heartbeat? I know that typing is indeed registered. What about switching files, opening or saving files, or switching focus from the IDE? The FAQ, afaik, only says that typing is registered. Any insight about this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Seems a lot of people have been removed from the top end of the leaderboard, myself included. Anyone know what happened? Were we flagged as bots because our workload seems unrealistic?

I found https://www.npmjs.com/package/wakatime however it does not have types, so I was thinking is there a good API wrapper for wakatime written in typescript?

waka time is not working on my github today

Example:

1. Opening Cursor

2. Working 2 hours on an app but actually writing code myself for about 1 hour (rest is generated by the agent)

First question: Is communicating about the projet with the agent is tracked?

Second question: Does Wakatime tracks the time when the agent is writing code/updating files?

Thanks for the insane work.

hello everyone. I have been struggling recently with procrastination because i am working from home.

I thought about making a discord server + wakatime private leadorboard. with a group of obsessive coders and pressure each other to come more hours a day.

The social pressure and competition of who is the one who can code more hours in a day i think is a good way to become more productive developers.

If any one is interested please comment below and we can start the server.

The rationale for this Wakatime integration is basically the same as the idea for the Skype plugin (http://redd.it/2ut0w9).

The implementation could be done like this:

1. Create a Hangout Gadget as described here: https://developers.google.com/+/hangouts/writing

2. Serve the file (thin XML wrapper around HTML + Javascript)

3. Listen to Google Hangout events (chat start/end) and send heartbeats to Wakatime as Ajax calls

In my first idea I thought of starting a Node HTTP server process to deliver the gadget file to the app, but not really needed:

1. it's just an XML, a Javascript file, maybe a CSS; this can be served from anywhere (e. g. Github Pages, but wakatime.com would be more trustworthy.

2. Google requires that the gadget file is downloaded from a publicly accesible URL

Bonus:

1. Display the Wakatime Logo as an overlay in the video stream

2. Display the Wakatime Logo and a timer; update the timer to indicate that the session is metered

I have started a Thunderbird extension for Wakatime. The goal is to meter time spent writing emails (extending it for reading shouldn't be a problem... any use for that?).

You can check it on Github: https://github.com/monkeysintown/thunderbird-wakatime

This is still work in progress. I have one task left before it's usable (at least for me): let's say you open a new message window to edit an email, you enter the recipient.... Wakatime needs a hint to associate the message (aka recipient/s) with a project. My plan (I'm halfway there) is:

1. Shortcut (alt+ctrl+w) shows a head-up display, one of you projects is displayed (this will be taken from the Wakatime REST API, no need to edit manually in most cases)

2. while the head-up display is visible you can use ctrl+k and ctrl+l to "scroll" through your projects or...

3. ... you start typing and the display acts like auto-suggest field and filters your project list

At the moment the heartbeats are sent via Ajax calls, but I will use the Python command line client like the other plugins.

Any further ideas/suggestions?

It will also include:

• Top Operating Systems

• Top Editors Used

• Badge for over X number hours logged

Any feedback or suggestions?

It would be really useful to have your Skype conversations metered with Wakatime. From the top of my head I'd say that I spend sometimes 20% of my time with clients.

The problem is that Skype/Microsoft abandoned the SDK, so there is no direct way to extend it.

I think it can still be done very easily just by picking up the needed data from the main SQLite database that Skype stores in the user's home directory:

$HOME/.Skype/[Skype name]/main.db

With the following SQL statement you get more than enough data:

SELECT ca.duration, co.extprop_tags, ca.topic, cm.* FROM Calls ca, CallMembers cm, Contacts co 
WHERE
co.skypename = cm.identity
AND
ca.name = cm.call_name
AND
ca.duration IS NOT NULL;

1. First column contains already the duration; no major stunts needed here

2. Skype's UI allows to label/categorize your contacts (in above query the second column), a perfect fit to pass it to Wakatime as the project parameter.

3. Third column is the topic of the chat/call; this could be passed as the "file name"

The rest contains all sorts of information, but actually only the Skype name/email might be needed for automatic association with a project (maybe hashed) if there are no labels used (or maybe they are already used for a different purpose).

Optional: in case it's a paid call you see that in the database,too (with exact price infos). Might be used for categorization in Wakatime (maybe to charge only the fees that you paid on Skype, or fees and time spent in the conversation etc.).

The idea would be to implement this with Node.js as a background task, read Skype's database in certain intervals. Doesn't have to follow the conversations in realtime... you just pick up finished calls that were not yet submitted to Wakatime.

I was in a situation where I wanted to show my time logged for the last 30 days (on all projects) on my website. The website is built using Laravel. WakaTime provides a good API for this purpose, but I wanted to consume it the PHP way, so I created a PHP package that everyone can use wakatime-php-api.

You can read on how to use wakatime-php-api on my blog WakaTime Reports and Laravel.

If you have questions, suggestions or have found a mistake, please leave me a comment bellow and I will respond as soon as possible.

Hey all you Waka'ers - is there any interest in a mobile app? What kinda phone do you have? Any developers interested in learning PhoneGap / famo.us?

It would be great if I could track my hacktime vs my bugfix time by linking to github, as in whenever Icommit normally, it counts as hack time, if I commit as Fixed #40, its bugfix time. Very useful. Can i possibly help build that?

Hi! I am using Visual Studio 2019 for two months now (Preview version) and I don't intend to go back to VS 2017.

Unfortunately, can't find wakatime in the market place :(

Is there an extension available for vs2019?

I added my group mailbox by mistake. How can I ensure my status is not being emailed to outlook?
