Ask for api when offline #255

Closed shirobachi closed 2 years ago

shirobachi commented 2 years ago

I was in train with no internet, extension ask me for API key like every 5 seconds what made almost impossible to work ;(

May you add some option like not now or sth?

The api key prompt doesn't depend on your network connection. So you needed to set your api key but couldn't find it because no internet? How did you install the plugin without internet?

I am using wakatime for vscode since months. So that weird, but still it asks me I click ESC and it ask again in ~5secs..

If somehow your ~/.wakatime.cfg file became corrupted and the plugin couldn't read your api key, it would only stop prompting after you enter something that matches the api key format. Just clicking ESC won't prevent it from prompting again the next time it tries to send your code stats.

I would not say it's "cool" behavior, but it's ok. Thanks!
