Intro

Track vim action: how long you have been working on vim, what programming languages(filetype) are you using today.

About this project

• I write this program to practice using Parsec in haskell
• Parse log file generated by vim-activity-log and record how long you have spent on vim per day and per language
• So you need to have vim plugin vim-activity-log installed
• vim-activity-log is forked from here, I did some minor modification to make the log format more consistent.
• This program could (and perhaps should) be used together with crontab

Installation

$ cabal sandbox init
$ cabal install

Usage

You should specify a folder to save log in .vimrc for vim-activity-log

let g:activity_log_location = '~/.activity_vim/%Y/%m/%d.log'

Then:

$ record-vim-time today --dir /path/to/activity_log_location

The program would look for your today's log and calcuate time you spent on vim. This should be what you'll see:

haskell: 00:15:48
markdown: 00:03:42
cabal: 00:01:02
gitcommit: 00:00:33
sh: 00:00:24
=============================

There is such situation that: you opened vim, did some coding, then you walked away(to have lunch, for example) without closing vim and didn't save your buffer, then you get a very very long action interval, and the recorded active time would be much longer than the time you actually spent on coding, to avoid this, you can specify a maxInterval like this

$ record-vim-time today --dir /path/to/activity_log_location --maxInterval 1800

Thus, intervals longer than 1800 seconds would be ignored

Instead of specify a directory and lookup your today's action, you can specify a specific log file. For example, if you want to lookup you vim action in 2015/06/04, you should do this:

$ record-vim-time file --file /path/to/activity_log_location/2015/06/04.log --maxInterval 1800
