Installation & Running

Follow these steps to set up and run the application locally:

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Chiken502/Hackadash
cd hackadash

2. Set up a virtual environment

python -m venv .venv

# On macOS/Linux:
source .venv/bin/activate

# On Windows:
.venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install the package

Install the repository locally in editable mode so your CLI shortcut is registered:

pip install -e .

4. Run the app

Now you can start the application from anywhere in your terminal by running:

hackadash

Note: You still have to be in the virtual environment that you installed hackadash inside of in step 3. If you want to run hackadash from anywhere skip step 2.

5. Enter Hackatime API Key

Hackatime Setup Screen

Select one of the two given options to continue. This step gets your hackatime API Key so that Hackadash can send API requests for the data it displays. On this screen you are presented with two options.

  • Option 1: Use Wakatime Config (recomended)
    • Hackadash will then look for the .wakatime.cfg, that all hackatime applications use, in your home directory. If it finds the file, then it will read the API Key from it and your good to go. If it can't find the .wakatime.cfg file then you will have to use option 2.
  • Option 2: Manualy Input API Key
    • Find your API Key in Hackatime settings. Then copy paste the key into the text box, and hit save and continue.
