## 🚧 Roadmap
|
||
|
||
Plans for the near future mainly include, besides usual improvements and bug fixes, a UI redesign as well as additional types of charts and statistics (see [#101](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/issues/101), [#76](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/issues/76), [#12](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/issues/12)). If you have feature requests or any kind of improvement proposals feel free to open an issue or share them in our [user survey](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/issues/82).
|
||
|
||
## ⌨️ How to use?
|
||
|
||
There are different options for how to use Wakapi, ranging from our hosted cloud service to self-hosting it. Regardless of which option choose, you will always have to do the [client setup](#-client-setup) in addition.
|
||
|
||
### ☁️ Option 1: Use [wakapi.dev](https://wakapi.dev)
|
||
|
||
If you want to try out a free, hosted cloud service, all you need to do is create an account and then set up your client-side tooling (see below).
|
||
|
||
### 📦 Option 2: Quick-run a release
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ curl -L https://wakapi.dev/get | bash
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Alternatively** using [eget](https://github.com/zyedidia/eget):
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ eget muety/wakapi
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 🐳 Option 3: Use Docker
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Create a persistent volume
|
||
$ docker volume create wakapi-data
|
||
|
||
$ SALT="$(cat /dev/urandom | tr -dc 'a-zA-Z0-9' | fold -w ${1:-32} | head -n 1)"
|
||
|
||
# Run the container
|
||
$ docker run -d \
|
||
-p 3000:3000 \
|
||
-e "WAKAPI_PASSWORD_SALT=$SALT" \
|
||
-v wakapi-data:/data \
|
||
--name wakapi \
|
||
ghcr.io/muety/wakapi:latest
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Note:** By default, SQLite is used as a database. To run Wakapi in Docker with MySQL or Postgres, see [Dockerfile](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/blob/master/Dockerfile) and [config.default.yml](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/blob/master/config.default.yml) for further options.
|
||
|
||
If you want to run Wakapi on **Kubernetes**, there is [wakapi-helm-chart](https://github.com/andreymaznyak/wakapi-helm-chart) for quick and easy deployment.
|
||
|
||
### 🧑💻 Option 4: Compile and run from source
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Build and install
|
||
# Alternatively: go build -o wakapi
|
||
$ go install github.com/muety/wakapi@latest
|
||
|
||
# Get default config and customize
|
||
$ curl -o wakapi.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muety/wakapi/master/config.default.yml
|
||
$ vi wakapi.yml
|
||
|
||
# Run it
|
||
$ ./wakapi -config wakapi.yml
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Note:** Check the comments in `config.yml` for best practices regarding security configuration and more.
|
||
|
||
💡 When running Wakapi standalone (without Docker), it is recommended to run it as a [SystemD service](etc/wakapi.service).
|
||
|
||
### 💻 Client setup
|
||
|
||
Wakapi relies on the open-source [WakaTime](https://github.com/wakatime/wakatime) client tools. In order to collect statistics for Wakapi, you need to set them up.
|
||
|
||
1. **Set up WakaTime** for your specific IDE or editor. Please refer to the respective [plugin guide](https://wakatime.com/plugins)
|
||
2. **Edit your local `~/.wakatime.cfg`** file as follows.
|
||
|
||
```ini
|
||
[settings]
|
||
|
||
# Your Wakapi server URL or 'https://wakapi.dev/api' when using the cloud server
|
||
api_url = http://localhost:3000/api
|
||
|
||
# Your Wakapi API key (get it from the web interface after having created an account)
|
||
api_key = 406fe41f-6d69-4183-a4cc-121e0c524c2b
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Optionally, you can set up a [client-side proxy](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/wiki/Advanced-Setup:-Client-side-proxy) in addition.
|
||
|
||

|
||
### Supported databases
|
||
|
||
Wakapi uses [GORM](https://gorm.io) as an ORM. As a consequence, a set of different relational databases is supported.
|
||
|
||
* [SQLite](https://sqlite.org/) (_default, easy setup_)
|
||
* [MySQL](https://hub.docker.com/_/mysql) (_recommended, because most extensively tested_)
|
||
* [MariaDB](https://hub.docker.com/_/mariadb) (_open-source MySQL alternative_)
|
||
* [Postgres](https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres) (_open-source as well_)
|
||
* [CockroachDB](https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/stable/install-cockroachdb-linux.html) (_cloud-native, distributed, Postgres-compatible API_)
|
||
|
||
## 🔧 API endpoints
|
||
|
||
See our [Swagger API Documentation](https://wakapi.dev/swagger-ui).
|
||
|
||
### Generating Swagger docs
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ go install github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag@latest
|
||
$ swag init -o static/docs
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 🤝 Integrations
|
||
|
||
### Prometheus export
|
||
|
||
You can export your Wakapi statistics to Prometheus to view them in a Grafana dashboard or so. Here is how.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# 1. Start Wakapi with the feature enabled
|
||
$ export WAKAPI_EXPOSE_METRICS=true
|
||
$ ./wakapi
|
||
|
||
# 2. Get your API key and hash it
|
||
$ echo "<YOUR_API_KEY>" | base64
|
||
|
||
# 3. Add a Prometheus scrape config to your prometheus.yml (see below)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Scrape config example
|
||
|
||
```yml
|
||
# prometheus.yml
|
||
# (assuming your Wakapi instance listens at localhost, port 3000)
|
||
|
||
scrape_configs:
|
||
- job_name: 'wakapi'
|
||
scrape_interval: 1m
|
||
metrics_path: '/api/metrics'
|
||
bearer_token: '<YOUR_BASE64_HASHED_TOKEN>'
|
||
static_configs:
|
||
- targets: ['localhost:3000']
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Grafana
|
||
|
||
There is also a [nice Grafana dashboard](https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/12790), provided by the author of [wakatime_exporter](https://github.com/MacroPower/wakatime_exporter).
|
||
|
||
![](https://grafana.com/api/dashboards/12790/images/8741/image)
|
||
|
||
### WakaTime integration
|
||
|
||
Wakapi plays well together with [WakaTime](https://wakatime.com). For one thing, you can **forward heartbeats** from Wakapi to WakaTime to effectively use both services simultaneously. In addition, there is the option to **import historic data** from WakaTime for consistency between both services. Both features can be enabled in the _Integrations_ section of your Wakapi instance's settings page.
|
||
|
||
### GitHub Readme Stats integrations
|
||
|
||
Wakapi also integrates with [GitHub Readme Stats](https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats#wakatime-week-stats) to generate fancy cards for you. Here is an example.
|
||
|
||
![](https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api/wakatime?username=n1try&api_domain=wakapi.dev&bg_color=2D3748&title_color=2F855A&icon_color=2F855A&text_color=ffffff&custom_title=Wakapi%20Week%20Stats&layout=compact)

|
||
```
|
||
|
||
</details>
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
### Github Readme Metrics integration
|
||
|
||
There is a [WakaTime plugin](https://github.com/lowlighter/metrics/tree/master/source/plugins/wakatime) for GitHub [Metrics](https://github.com/lowlighter/metrics/) that is also compatible with Wakapi.
|
||
|
||
Preview:

|
||
|
||
```yml
|

|
||
# ... other options
|
||
plugin_wakatime: yes
|
||
plugin_wakatime_token: ${{ secrets.WAKATIME_TOKEN }} # Required
|
||
plugin_wakatime_days: 7 # Display last week stats
|
||
plugin_wakatime_sections: time, projects, projects-graphs # Display time and projects sections, along with projects graphs
|
||
plugin_wakatime_limit: 4 # Show 4 entries per graph
|
||
plugin_wakatime_url: http://wakapi.dev # Wakatime url endpoint
|
||
plugin_wakatime_user: .user.login # User
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
</details>
|
||
<br>
|
||
|
||
## 👍 Best practices
|
||
|
||
It is recommended to use wakapi behind a **reverse proxy**, like [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com) or [nginx](https://www.nginx.com/), to enable **TLS encryption** (HTTPS).
|
||
|
||
However, if you want to expose your wakapi instance to the public anyway, you need to set `server.listen_ipv4` to `0.0.0.0` in `config.yml`.
|
||
|
||
## 🧪 Tests
|
||
|
||
### Unit tests
|
||
|
||
Unit tests are supposed to test business logic on a fine-grained level. They are implemented as part of the application, using Go's [testing](https://pkg.go.dev/testing?utm_source=godoc) package alongside [stretchr/testify](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/stretchr/testify).
|
||
|
||
#### How to run
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ CGO_ENABLED=0 go test -json -coverprofile=coverage/coverage.out ./... -run ./...
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### API tests
|
||
|
||
API tests are implemented as black box tests, which interact with a fully-fledged, standalone Wakapi through HTTP requests. They are supposed to check Wakapi's web stack and endpoints, including response codes, headers and data on a syntactical level, rather than checking the actual content that is returned.
|
||
|
||
Our API (or end-to-end, in some way) tests are implemented as a [Postman](https://www.postman.com/) collection and can be run either from inside Postman, or using [newman](https://www.npmjs.com/package/newman) as a command-line runner.
|
||
|
||
To get a predictable environment, tests are run against a fresh and clean Wakapi instance with a SQLite database that is populated with nothing but some seed data (see [data.sql](testing/data.sql)). It is usually recommended for software tests to be [safe](https://www.restapitutorial.com/lessons/idempotency.html), stateless and without side effects. In contrary to that paradigm, our API tests strictly require a fixed execution order (which Postman assures) and their assertions may rely on specific previous tests having succeeded.
|
||
|
||
#### Prerequisites (Linux only)
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# 1. sqlite (cli)
|
||
$ sudo apt install sqlite # Fedora: sudo dnf install sqlite
|
||
|
||
# 2. newman
|
||
$ npm install -g newman
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### How to run (Linux only)
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ ./testing/run_api_tests.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 🤓 Developer notes
|
||
|
||
### Building web assets
|
||
|
||
To keep things minimal, all JS and CSS assets are included as static files and checked in to Git. [TailwindCSS](https://tailwindcss.com/docs/installation#building-for-production) and [Iconify](https://iconify.design/docs/icon-bundles/) require an additional build step. To only require this at the time of development, the compiled assets are checked in to Git as well.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ yarn
|
||
$ yarn build # or: yarn watch
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
New icons can be added by editing the `icons` array in [scripts/bundle_icons.js](scripts/bundle_icons.js).
|
||
|
||
#### Precompression
|
||
|

As explained in [#284](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/issues/284), precompressed (using Brotli) versions of some of the assets are delivered to save additional bandwidth. This was inspired by Caddy's [`precompressed`](https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/file_server) directive. [`gzipped.FileServer`](https://github.com/muety/wakapi/blob/07a367ce0a97c7738ba8e255e9c72df273fd43a3/main.go#L249) checks for every static file's `.br` or `.gz` equivalents and, if present, delivers those instead of the actual file, alongside `Content-Encoding: br`. Currently, compressed assets are simply checked in to Git. Later we might want to have this be part of a new build step.
|
||
|
||
To pre-compress files, run this:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Install brotli first
|
||
$ sudo apt install brotli # or: sudo dnf install brotli
|
||
|
||
# Watch, build and compress
|
||
$ yarn watch:compress
|
||
|
||
# Alternatively: build and compress only
|
||
$ yarn build:all:compress
|
||
|
||
# Alternatively: compress only
|
||
$ yarn compress
|
||
```

## ❔ FAQs
|
||
|

<summary><b>How did Wakapi come about?</b></summary>
|
||
|

Wakapi was started when I was a student, who wanted to track detailed statistics about my coding time. Although I'm a big fan of WakaTime I didn't want to pay <a href="https://wakatime.com/pricing">$9 a month</a> back then. Luckily, most parts of WakaTime are open source!

<summary><b>How does Wakapi compare to WakaTime?</b></summary>
|
||
|
||
Wakapi is a small subset of WakaTime and has a lot less features. Cool WakaTime features, that are missing Wakapi, include:
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Leaderboards</li>
|
||
<li><a href="https://wakatime.com/share/embed">Embeddable Charts</a></li>
|
||
<li>Personal Goals</li>
|
||
<li>Team- / Organization Support</li>
|
||
<li>Additional Integrations (with GitLab, etc.)</li>
|
||
<li>Richer API</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
WakaTime is worth the price. However, if you only need basic statistics and like to keep sovereignty over your data, you might want to go with Wakapi.

<summary><b>How are durations calculated?</b></summary>
|
||
|
||
Inferring a measure for your coding time from heartbeats works a bit differently than in WakaTime. While WakaTime has <a href="https://wakatime.com/faq#timeout">timeout intervals</a>, Wakapi essentially just pads every heartbeat that occurs after a longer pause with 2 extra minutes.
|
||
|
||
Here is an example (circles are heartbeats):
|
||
|
||
```text
|
||
|---o---o--------------o---o---|
|
||
| |10s| 3m |10s| |
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
It is unclear how to handle the three minutes in between. Did the developer do a 3-minute break, or were just no heartbeats being sent, e.g. because the developer was staring at the screen trying to find a solution, but not actually typing code?
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><b>WakaTime</b> (with 5 min timeout): 3 min 20 sec
|
||
<li><b>WakaTime</b> (with 2 min timeout): 20 sec
|
||
<li><b>Wakapi:</b> 10 sec + 2 min + 10 sec = 2 min 20 sec</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
Wakapi adds a "padding" of two minutes before the third heartbeat. This is why total times will slightly vary between Wakapi and WakaTime.
