~/.wakatime.cfg Seems do not work with SublimeText 3

[boxsnake]

• Environments:

  • Sublime Text: 3.0 Build 3143
  • OS: Windows 10 (1709, OS 16299.309)
  • Environment Variable: WAKATIME_HOME=%USERPROFILE%

• .wakatime.cfg contents:

  [settings]
  debug = true
  api_key = xxxx
  hide_filenames = false
  exclude =
  ^COMMIT_EDITMSG$
  ^TAG_EDITMSG$
  ^/var/(?!www/).*
  ^/etc/
  include =
  .*
  only_include_with_project_file = true
  offline = true
  proxy =
  no_ssl_verify = false
  timeout = 30
  hostname =
  [projectmap]
  [git]
  disable_submodules = false

• Expected: For only_include_with_project_file = true in .wakatime.cfg, I expect to make heartbeat only when .wakatime-project is present.

• Current situation: When I save a file from a folder without .wakatime-project, it also make heartbeats. In Wakatime Dashboard, it creates an "Unknown Project".

~/.wakatime.cfg is used by wakatime cli, which is used by the Sublime Text WakaTime plugin. Sublime Text also has it's own config file that overrides ~/.wakatime.cfg with limited configs called WakaTime.sublime-settings.

The only_include_with_project_file setting only works in your ~/.wakatime.cfg file, not in Sublime's WakaTime.sublime-settings file.

What's the full path of your ~/.wakatime.cfg file? If it's not at C:\Users\<user>\.wakatime.cfg then wakatime cli won't find it.

I see. @alanhamlett

• First, %USERPROFILE% in Windows is pointed to C:\Users\<user>, but the only_include_with_project_file setting in .wakatime.cfg seems not work
• Do you mean the Sublime plugin only pick some of the configs from .wakatime.cfg? If so, I am wondering if you can add only_include_with_project_file configuration support in next patch. Thanks in advance.
