Timeout should be called on main thread? #34

Closed sisou closed 9 years ago

sisou commented 9 years ago

After fixing my plugin as described in https://github.com/wakatime/sublime-wakatime/issues/33#issuecomment-85512368, timetracking works and the WakaTime.com server receives my heartbeats.

Nonetheless, WakaTime is still emiting an apparently non-critical error:

Exception in thread Thread-36:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".\threading.py", line 532, in __bootstrap_inner
  File ".\WakaTime.py", line 181, in run
  File ".\WakaTime.py", line 228, in send_heartbeat
  File ".\WakaTime.py", line 233, in sent
RuntimeError: Must call on main thread, consider using sublime.set_timeout(function, timeout)

Edit: This is in fact a critical error, as it prevents the plugin from setting it's LAST_ACTION variable which in turn makes the plugin call the API on each keypress.

It appears this happens due to WakaTime now using the system's Python, which is executed in another thread (not Sublime's main one).

Yes, this is a pretty bad bug. I've fixed it with 48bbab33b4d8575ec5bef81fea2bb195815799e8 so v3.0.13 should be working now.

Thank you! :+1: I hope it doesn't mean a regression in ST3.

Can I just add: Works like a charm now! So awesome! Thank you! :smiley:
