Table of Contents

Features

  • Non-Blocking Architecture Engineered in Go with asynchronous concurrency. Data synchronization occurs entirely in the background, ensuring zero latency impact on the editor's performance.
  • Privacy-Centric Storage Data is persisted exclusively to your personal MongoDB instance. This self-hosted model ensures complete data ownership with no third-party tracking, telemetry, or subscription fees.
  • Automated Dependency Management The plugin automatically detects the host operating system (Linux/macOS) and retrieves the appropriate pre-compiled binary during the initial setup.
  • Portfolio Visualization Includes a dedicated CLI utility for generating high-resolution statistical charts, optimized for seamless integration into GitHub Profile READMEs.
  • Granular Telemetry Intelligently tracks and categorizes development activity by project, programming language, and file type without requiring manual configuration.

How it Works

Installation

Using VS Code

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a3c492d8-898c-497a-bc0c-c2f8ebc5d03b

Using lazy.nvim

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/edf09531-ed66-4709-9b78-5edc90843510

Add this to your plugin configuration:

return {
  "Rtarun3606k/TakaTime",
  lazy = false,
  config = function()
    -- Optional: Enable debug mode if you run into issues
    require("taka-time").setup({
        debug = false
    })
  end,
}

Setup Guide

  • Step 1: Get a Database

    You need a MongoDB connection string. You have two free options:

    • add all ip access (if you want github Stats its required)
    • Cloud (Recommended): Create a free account on MongoDB Atlas. Create a free cluster and get your connection string (e.g., mongodb+srv://user:pass@cluster...).
    • Local (Docker): Run docker run -d -p 27017:27017 mongo.

  • Step 2: Initialize the Plugin

    Open Neovim.

    Run the setup command: Vim Script

    :TakaInit

    Paste your MongoDB Connection String when prompted. (This is saved securely in your local data folder, ~/.local/share/nvim/taka_data.json).

  • Step 3: Verify

    Run the status command to check if everything is working: Vim Script

    :TakaStatus

    If it says "TakaTime is configured and running," you are good to go!

GitHub Profile Stats Setup

TakaTime comes with a report generator that works with GitHub Actions to update your Profile README automatically.

  1. Prepare your Profile Repo

    Go to your GitHub Profile Repository (the one named username/username).

    Go to Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions.

    Add a New Repository Secret named MONGO_URI with your connection string.

    (Optional) Add GIST_TOKEN if you plan to use Gists (not required for direct README updates).

  2. Add the Markers

  • Add start and end markers to your README.md
<!--takatime-start-->

  1. Create the Workflow

Create a file in your repo at .github/workflows/update-stats.yml and paste this content:


name: Update TakaTime Stats

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 0 * * *" # Runs every midnight UTC
  workflow_dispatch:      # Allows manual trigger

jobs:
  update-readme:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      contents: write # Needed to download releases

    steps:
      - name: Download Taka-Report Binary
        env:
          GH_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
        run: |
          # Downloads the latest stable binary
          gh release download --repo Rtarun3606k/TakaTime --pattern "taka-report-linux-amd64" --output taka-report
          chmod +x taka-report

      - name: Generate Report & Update Profile
        env:
          MONGO_URI: ${{ secrets.MONGO_URI }}
          GIST_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
          TARGET_REPO: ${{ github.repository }}
        run: ./taka-report -days=7

Note: This workflow downloads the taka-report tool and runs it against your database to generate stats.

  • Customization & Themes

    Taka-Report supports full customization through command-line flags. You can choose from pre-built themes or override specific colors to match your GitHub profile aesthetic.

  • 1. Base Themes

    Use the -theme flag to apply a pre-configured color palette.
    Default: dark

    Theme Description
    dark GitHub Dark Dimmed (Default)
    light GitHub Light
    dracula Dracula Color Palette
    nord Nord Winter Color Palette
    gruvbox Gruvbox Retro
    monokai Monokai Vivid
    cyberpunk High Contrast Neon

    Usage Example:

    ./taka-report -theme nord

  • Configuration Parameters

    You can pass these flags to the taka-report binary to control the data scope and visual style of your report.

    Flag Type Default Description
    -days int 0 Data Scope: No longer in use just set it to Zero 0
    -theme string "dark" Base Theme: Selects a pre-configured color palette. Options: dark, light, dracula, nord, gruvbox, monokai, cyberpunk
    -bg hex Theme Background: Overrides the main card background color.
    -text hex Theme Primary Text: Overrides the color of main headers and key statistics.
    -subtext hex Theme Secondary Text: Overrides the color of labels, timestamps, and axis text.
    -bar-bg hex Theme Bar Background: Overrides the color of the empty/unfilled portion of progress bars.
    -c1 hex Theme Primary Accent: Used for the highest values (e.g., "All Time" stat) and primary progress bars.
    -c2 hex Theme Secondary Accent: Used for medium-high values (e.g., "Last 30 Days").
    -c3 hex Theme Tertiary Accent: Used for medium-low values (e.g., "Last 7 Days").
    -c4 hex Theme Quaternary Accent: Used for the lowest values (e.g., "Yesterday") or distinct highlights.

    Note: Color overrides (like -bg) take precedence over the base -theme. You can start with -theme dracula and then just change the background with -bg "#000000".

    Exapmle use Neon Theme :

    ./taka-report -days=7 -bg "#0d1117" -text "#00FF00" -subtext "#008800" -bar-bg "#111111" -c1 "#00FF00" -c2 "#00DD00" -c3 "#00AA00" -c4 "#005500"

Troubleshooting

"TakaTime is not configured"

Run :TakaInit again and ensure your URI is correct.

Check if the secret file exists: ~/.local/share/nvim/taka_data.json.

Upload Failed / Syncing Forever

Enable debug mode in your config:


 return {
  "Rtarun3606k/TakaTime",
  lazy = false,
  config = function()
    -- Optional: Enable debug mode if you run into issues
    require("taka-time").setup({
        debug = true
    })
  end,
}

Run :messages in Neovim to see the logs.

Ensure your IP address is whitelisted in MongoDB Atlas.

Advanced Debugging (Log File)

If you are still facing issues, TakaTime maintains a persistent log file that tracks all binary operations, network requests, and errors.

Log Location:

Linux/macOS:  ~/.takatime/debug-logs.log

Windows:  C:\Users\<YourUser>\.takatime\debug-logs.log
