auhau / gitrack Goto Github PK

In order to increase the accuracy of the time tracked with giTrack I have an idea of using watchdog to monitor changes of files inside the Git repo and if for some configured time, no activity would be detected then the time tracking would be paused.

There might be thou different reasons for this inactivity: doing research, being on meetings, debugging etc. Therefore, I am more inclining to not completely discard the tracking information, but instead store them locally and when activity is resumed, ask the user if the break should be count as tracked time. There should be quiet extensive configuration around this, so everybody could configure it to its need.

This will require to implement a daemon that will run separately in the background and track the activity.

Another way how to make the accuracy of giTrack higher is detection of system-wide events like hibernation/wake-up or power off events.

This feature would be very OS specific, also it will require the deamon as #5.

Per guidence at pex-tool/pex#645 (comment) the pex build should be possible to fix.

New provider which people could find helpful would write all its data into configured csv file.

Please let me know if you would find it helpful.
