WakaTime offers insights into your coding activity, enabling you to track the time you spend on programming projects. With the WakaTime API on Pipedream, you can automate the extraction of this data to trigger actions in other apps, generate reports, and monitor your development workflow. Pipedream's serverless platform allows you to connect WakaTime to hundreds of other services without writing comprehensive code, creating opportunities to streamline your productivity and gain data-driven insights into your coding habits.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
wakatime: {
type: "app",
app: "wakatime",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://wakatime.com/api/v1/users/current`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.wakatime.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})
Daily Coding Summary to Slack: Using Pipedream's workflow, you can set up an automation that sends a daily summary of your coding activity from WakaTime to a designated Slack channel. This keeps your team informed about project progress and individual contributions without manual updates.
Project Time Tracking to Google Sheets: With Pipedream, you can create a workflow that automatically logs the time spent on different projects in WakaTime to a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This enables easy tracking of time allocation across multiple projects and simplifies generating timesheets or invoices.
Github Commit Triggered Coding Breakdown: Set up a Pipedream workflow where a GitHub commit triggers a detailed breakdown of your coding activity in WakaTime for the time period leading up to the commit. This allows you to correlate coding time with specific development milestones and understand your productivity patterns.
WakaTime uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your WakaTime account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into WakaTime and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any WakaTime API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
email
read_logged_time
write_logged_time
read_stats
read_orgs
read_private_leaderboards
