Terminal Setup Guide

Terminal

Follow these steps to start tracking your coding time in Terminal with Hackatime.

Step 1: Log into Hackatime

Make sure you have a Hackatime account and are logged in.

Step 2: Run the Setup Script

Visit the setup page to automatically configure your API key and endpoint. This ensures everything works perfectly with Hackatime.

Step 3: Install Terminal Plugin

Run this command in your terminal to install the Hack Club terminal-wakatime plugin:

curl -fsSL https://hack.club/terminal-wakatime.sh | bash

This installs terminal-wakatime and automatically configures it for bash, zsh, or fish shells. The plugin will use your Hackatime configuration from the setup script.

Troubleshooting

  • Not seeing your time? Make sure you completed the setup page first
  • Plugin not working? Try restarting Terminal after installation
  • Still stuck? Ask for help in Hack Club Slack (#hackatime-help channel)

Next Steps

Once configured, your coding time will automatically appear on your Hackatime dashboard. Happy coding!
