Closed Tgentil closed 10 months ago

Tgentil commented 10 months ago

Description:

After following the installation steps for the WakaTime plugin in PyCharm Community Edition, the pop-up to enter the API key does not appear. I have tried disabling and enabling the plugin, as well as uninstalling and reinstalling it, but the issue persists.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install PyCharm Community Edition on a Windows 11 machine.
  2. Navigate to Preferences -> Plugins -> Browse Repositories...
  3. Search for WakaTime and install the plugin.
  4. Re-launch PyCharm.
  5. Observe that there is no prompt to enter the WakaTime API key.

Expected Behavior:

After re-launching PyCharm, a place to input my API key should appear.

Actual Behavior:

No screens appears for entering the WakaTime API key.

Additional Information:

Do you already have an api key in your common shared ~/.wakatime.cfg file? Then it won't re-prompt.

Hi @alanhamlett,

Thank you for your quick response. You're correct; I did have an API key in my common shared ~/.wakatime.cfg file. After I opened the issue, I uninstalled PyCharm Community and installed PyCharm Professional. I experienced the same behavior, but upon starting a new project, I noticed that my API key was already configured automatically.

Thank you for clarifying this for me, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Best regards. (PS.: this project is amazing)
