WakaTime CLI

Command line interface to WakaTime used by all WakaTime text editor plugins.

Go to http://wakatime.com/editors to install the plugin for your text editor or IDE.

Usage

Normally you don't need to use wakatime-cli directly unless you're building a new WakaTime plugin. If you're building a plugin using the WakaTime API, follow the Creating a Plugin guide.

WakaTime plugins and wakatime-cli share a common INI config file:

$WAKATIME_HOME/.wakatime.cfg

IDE plugins log to the IDE’s console, and wakatime-cli writes JSONL logs to:

$WAKATIME_HOME/.wakatime/wakatime.log

With the ~/.wakatime.cfg config debug = true enabling verbose logs.

See Usage or the WakaTime FAQ for more details.
