Daniel George created a fork of a WakaTime Unity plugin that works with the Hackatime API. I modified the instructions for use with this new plugin. I also bolded the links to make them easily visible.

# How to Track Time in Unity
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's set up Unity to count how much time you spend making games!
|
|
|
|
## Step 1: Make a Hackatime Account
|
|
|
|
Go to **[Hackatime](https://hackatime.hackclub.com)** and make an account. Then log in.
|
|
|
|
## Step 2: Get Your Settings Ready
|
|
|
|
Click this link to the **[setup page](https://hackatime.hackclub.com/my/wakatime_setup)**. It will set up your account so it works with Unity.
|
|
|
|
## Step 3: Add the Plugin to Unity
|
|
|
|
There are a few different Unity plugins. But most of them do not work with the Hackatime API. In light of this, **[Daniel-George](https://github.com/Daniel-Geo)** created a fork of **[Vladfaust's plugin](https://github.com/vladfaust/unity-wakatime)** to work with Hackatime. Here are the instructions:
|
|
|
|
1. Open Unity Hub and start a project
|
|
2. Go to this GitHub page: **[Unity Hackatime Plugin](https://github.com/Daniel-Geo/unity-hackatime)**
|
|
3. Copy this text: `https://github.com/daniel-geo/unity-hackatime.git#package`
|
|
4. Open your Unity project and click on ***Window > Package Management > Package Manager***
|
|
5. Click the **plus sign** on the top-left-corner of the screen
|
|
6. Select "**Install package from git URL...**"
|
|
7. Paste the text you copied earlier
|
|
8. Click "**Install**"
|
|
|
|
After installing, you will need to grab your Hackatime API key and paste it into the Unity plugin:
|
|
|
|
1. Open your Unity project
|
|
2. Go to ***Window > Hackatime***
|
|
3. Insert your API key into the text field (grab it from the Config File on your settings page: https://hackatime.hackclub.com/my/settings)
|
|
4. Click "**Save Preferences**"
|
|
5. **You are done!**
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Hackatime should start tracking these events:
|
|
|
|
- DidReloadScripts
|
|
- EditorApplication.playModeStateChanged
|
|
- EditorApplication.contextualPropertyMenu
|
|
- EditorApplication.hierarchyWindowChanged
|
|
- EditorSceneManager.sceneSaved
|
|
- EditorSceneManager.sceneOpened
|
|
- EditorSceneManager.sceneClosing
|
|
- EditorSceneManager.newSceneCreated
|
|
|
|
|
|
## If Something Goes Wrong
|
|
|
|
**Can't see your time?** Go back to the [setup page](https://hackatime.hackclub.com/my/wakatime_setup) and try again.
|
|
|
|
**Plugin not working?** Close Unity and open it again. Or reinstall it using a different method listed on this page: **[Unity Hackatime Plugin](https://github.com/Daniel-Geo/unity-hackatime)**
|
|
|
|
**Package Manager not working?** Make sure you're connected to the internet.
|
|
|
|
**Still having trouble?** Ask for help in [Hack Club Slack](https://hackclub.slack.com) - look for the #hackatime-v2 channel.
|
|
|
|
## What Happens Next
|
|
|
|
Start making your game! Your time will show up on your [Hackatime page](https://hackatime.hackclub.com) in a few minutes.

**Special thanks to [Daniel-George](https://github.com/Daniel-Geo) for editing the original plugin for use with Hackatime.**
