About

Existing solutions didn't work for me (https://github.com/bengsfort/WakaTime-Unity is obsolete and https://github.com/josec89/wakatime-unity requires Python), so I decided to implement my own variant.

Installation using the Unity Package Manager (Unity 2018.1+)

The Unity Package Manager (UPM) is a new method to manage external packages. It keeps package contents separate from your main project files.

  1. Modify your project's Packages/manifest.json file adding this line:

    "com.vladfaust.unitywakatime": "https://github.com/vladfaust/unity-wakatime.git#package"
    

    Make sure it's still a valid JSON file. For example:

    {
        "dependencies": {
            "com.unity.ads": "2.0.8",
            "com.vladfaust.unitywakatime": "https://github.com/vladfaust/unity-wakatime.git#package"
        }
    }
    
  2. To update the package you need to delete the package lock entry in the lock section in Packages/manifest.json. The entry to delete could look like this:

    "com.vladfaust.unitywakatime": {
      "hash": "31fe84232fc9f9c6e9606dc9e5a285886a94f26b",
      "revision": "package"
    }
    

Installation (all other Unity versions)

If you don't use the Unity Package Manager, you may copy the Editor folder from inside Assets/com.vladfaust.unitywakatime into your project's Assets folder.

Setup

  1. Run the Unity editor, go to Window/WakaTime, and insert your API key (grab one from https://wakatime.com/settings/account)
  2. Press Save Preferences
  3. Check if "Unity" editor appears at https://wakatime.com/api/v1/users/current/user_agents (may be a bit delayed)
  4. Enjoy!

Usage

The plugin will automatically send heartbeats to WakaTime after following events:

Development

Use the manual installation method, so the changes you make are immediately reflected in the editor. But please keep the repository sane, omitting any unnecessary files. When added a new file, move its .meta counterpart generated by Unity into the /CI/Meta folder.
