Real time or Refresh sidebar view (report) #28

The timer is in real time, but the sidebar summary view itself doesn't seem to update. Is there a time-interval with with it updates? And is there a way to manually refresh the report?

Hi Tony! You are correct, the summary does not update at regular intervals. iirc, it is updated in these cases:

On initializing the plugin, i.e. when you first open Obsidian.
When a time entry is stopped, the summary is updated to reflect the added time from the finalized time entry.

Currently, refreshing the overview can be done by reloading Obsidian (command palette: "Reload app without saving"), although regardless the currently running timer is never part of the summary (Toggl does not include it in their report endpoint).

Could you describe the ideal behavior for your use case? I am always open to feature requests and perhaps I could make a setting for including the current running timer in the summary, with real-time total time for the day.

I would love for current timer to be part of the summary! It is actually something I am sorely missing from Toggl. That plus refresh at the end of saving would totally do if.

Sorry this took so long. Just added it in release 0.6.0, should be live in a few days I think!
