Common interface for the WakaTime api.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --entity FILE         Absolute path to file for the heartbeat. Can also be a
                        url, domain or app when --entity-type is not file.
  --key KEY             Your wakatime api key; uses api_key from
                        ~/.wakatime.cfg by default.
  --write               When set, tells api this heartbeat was triggered from
                        writing to a file.
  --plugin PLUGIN       Optional text editor plugin name and version for User-
                        Agent header.
  --time time           Optional floating-point unix epoch timestamp. Uses
                        current time by default.
  --lineno LINENO       Optional line number. This is the current line being
                        edited.
  --cursorpos CURSORPOS
                        Optional cursor position in the current file.
  --entity-type ENTITY_TYPE
                        Entity type for this heartbeat. Can be "file",
                        "domain" or "app". Defaults to "file".
  --category CATEGORY   Category of this heartbeat activity. Can be "coding",
                        "building", "indexing", "debugging", "running tests",
                        "manual testing", "browsing", "code reviewing" or
                        "designing". Defaults to "coding".
  --proxy PROXY         Optional proxy configuration. Supports HTTPS and SOCKS
                        proxies. For example: https://user:pass@host:port or
                        socks5://user:pass@host:port or domain\user:pass
  --no-ssl-verify       Disables SSL certificate verification for HTTPS
                        requests. By default, SSL certificates are verified.
  --project PROJECT     Optional project name.
  --alternate-project ALTERNATE_PROJECT
                        Optional alternate project name. Auto-discovered
                        project takes priority.
  --language LANGUAGE   Optional language name. If valid, takes priority over
                        auto-detected language.
  --local-file FILE     Absolute path to local file for the heartbeat. When
                        --entity is a remote file, this local file will be
                        used for stats and just the value of --entity sent
                        with heartbeat.
  --hostname HOSTNAME   Hostname of current machine.
  --disable-offline     Disables offline time logging instead of queuing
                        logged time.
  --hide-file-names     Obfuscate filenames. Will not send file names to api.
  --hide-project-names  Obfuscate project names. When a project folder is
                        detected instead of using the folder name as the
                        project, a .wakatime-project file is created with a
                        random project name.
  --exclude EXCLUDE     Filename patterns to exclude from logging. POSIX regex
                        syntax. Can be used more than once.
  --exclude-unknown-project
                        When set, any activity where the project cannot be
                        detected will be ignored.
  --include INCLUDE     Filename patterns to log. When used in combination
                        with --exclude, files matching include will still be
                        logged. POSIX regex syntax. Can be used more than
                        once.
  --include-only-with-project-file
                        Disables tracking folders unless they contain a
                        .wakatime-project file. Defaults to false.
  --extra-heartbeats    Reads extra heartbeats from STDIN as a JSON array
                        until EOF.
  --log-file LOG_FILE   Defaults to ~/.wakatime.log.
  --api-url API_URL     Heartbeats api url. For debugging with a local server.
  --timeout TIMEOUT     Number of seconds to wait when sending heartbeats to
                        api. Defaults to 60 seconds.
  --sync-offline-activity SYNC_OFFLINE_ACTIVITY
                        Amount of offline activity to sync from your local
                        ~/.wakatime.db sqlite3 file to your WakaTime Dashboard
                        before exiting. Can be "none" or a positive integer
                        number. Defaults to 5, meaning for every heartbeat
                        sent while online 5 offline heartbeats are synced. Can
                        be used without --entity to only sync offline activity
                        without generating new heartbeats.
  --config CONFIG       Defaults to ~/.wakatime.cfg.
  --verbose             Turns on debug messages in log file.
  --version             show program's version number and exit
