Report debugging activity

[Daste745]

It would be nice to report debugging activity, like wakatime/vscode-wakatime does. I tried to add this but I'm not sure how to the info about a running debug session. Maybe I'm not seeing something 🤔.

From wakatime-cli's help:

--category string Category of this heartbeat activity. Can be "coding", "building", "indexing", "debugging", "learning", "meeting", "planning", "researching", "communicating", "supporting" "advising", "running tests", "writing tests", "manual testing", "writing docs", "code reviewing", "browsing", "translating", or "designing". Defaults to "coding".

--category debugging needs to be added to wakatime-cli calls when any debug session is active. The hard thing is actually checking for a debug session. If not possible, we'll probably have to wait for support from zed's extension API to get this info.

Are you saying that you need a way to pass the --category parameter to wakatime-cli?

[Daste745]

No no, I want wakatime-zed to send the debugging category to wakatime when I'm in a debug session. I'm not sure if that's currently possible though.

I don't know how it works in VSCode, but for Zed, wakatime-cli is launched as an LSP, so I think it's not possible.
