~/.wakatime/or somewhere in your$PATH. (Orbrew install wakatime-clion Mac) -
Add
(global-wakatime-mode)to yourinit.elfile, then restart Emacs. -
You will see a prompt asking for the path to wakatime-cli. Run

Enable WakaTime for the current buffer by invoking M-x wakatime-mode. If you wish to activate it globally, run M-x global-wakatime-mode.
Set variable wakatime-api-key to your API key.
Point wakatime-cli-path to the absolute path of wakatime-cli.
To be sure heartbeats are getting sent, turn on debug mode by adding this line to your ~/.wakatime.cfg file:
debug = true
Then run tail -f ~/.wakatime/wakatime.log and make sure you see a 201 response code from the WakaTime API<

If you want to disable an error message on a particular error code from wakatime-cli, you can set wakatime-ignore-exit-codes.
