Auto-Tracking

[DanielHabenicht]

First of all, great extension! This is just an idea, that popped into my mind I thought would be worth sharing. (I don't have time to program it, neither do I suspect anybody else has.)

It would be great if the extension could automatically track which project I am working on, based on the project opened.

First of it would be great if "workspace" and "project" could be automatically selected based on the workspace the user currently has open.

Later on, something like automatic tracking based on commits could be added.

It could work as wakatime does.

I am currently working on an own time tracker like waka time. It's not yet finished and will take a few weeks to but if you want to get it, check code-time.tobiaswaelde.com periodically.

Code 406 if you click on the link you've posted. https://info.tobiaswaelde.com this link should work fine.

And refering to the code-time. There is already a handy extension called like that from Software: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=softwaredotcom.swdc-vscode

Is there any affiliation with that extension or its a coincidence?

[tobiaswaelde]

you should be automatically redirected to info.tobiaswaelde.com

i already know the extension from Software, but i miss some features (which exist in waka time). But i do not want to waste 10$ per month just to show more than the last 14 days. So i prefer to build my own extension. Due to my coding habits (coding on the backseat while traveling long distances) where I do not always have an internet connection I want to build mine almost completely independent.

Hey Tobias, do you need help on this?

[tobiaswaelde]

@DanielHabenicht Currently you can create a .vscode/settings.json inside your project root where you can set the default workspace ID and default project ID. This should help until v4 is finished where these functions should be simplified and accessible via the context menu in the tree view.
