wakapi

Usage

• Create an empty MySQL database
• Clone repository
• Copy .env.example to .env and set database credentials
• Install dependencies: go get -d ./...
• Set target port in config.ini
• Build executable: go build
• Run server: ./wakapi
• Edit your local ~/.wakatime.cfg file and add api_url = https://your.server:someport/api/heartbeat

First run (create user account): When running the server for the very first time, the database gets populated. Afterwards you have to create yourself a user account. Until proper user sign up and login is implemented, this is done via SQL, like this.

• mysql -u yourusername -p -H your.hostname
• USE yourdatabasename;
• INSERT INTO users (id, api_key) VALUES ('your_cool_nickname', '728f084c-85e0-41de-aa2a-b6cc871200c1'); (the latter value is your api key from ~/.wakatime.cfg)

Todo

• Persisted summaries / aggregations (for performance)
• User sign up and log in
• Additional endpoints for retrieving statistics data
• Dockerize
• Unit tests

Important note

This is not an alternative to using WakaTime.
