hyprlog

If you're coming form my resume, my description is of the "tui" branch of this repo, after some final optimizations it will be merged and released.

This is an activity/focus logger for hyprland.

This is achieved by using the hyprlogd daemon to record all focus events in a log.
The hyprlog CLI will use these logs to generate reports on your activity.

[ --class CLASS_NAME | -c CLASS_NAME ]

Installation

Install the hyprlog CLI and hyprlog daemon with from crates.io, the AUR, nixpkgs, or manually from the releases page.

Arch

'''bash yay -S hyprlog '''

Nix/NixOS

'''bash home.packages = [ pkgs.hyprlog ]; or system.packages = [ pkgs.hyprlog ]; '''

Other

'''bash cargo install hyprlog '''

Add the hyprlogd daemon to the AUTOSTART section of your hyprland config, otherwise no data will be collected and this is useless.

hyprland.conf

exec-once = hyprlogd

Configuration

Idle Events

Accurate focus data requires that hyprlog is informed of idle events. Below is an example of how to set that up using hypridle (STRONGLY RECOMMENDED).

hypridle.conf

listener {
    timeout = 180
    on-timeout = hyprlog --idle
    on-resume = hyprlog --resume
}

Tmux

By default, tmux won't expose the current command as a title, anything done in a tmux session just shows up as "bash" in the terminal emulator(kitty) summary. This setting fixes that.

tmux.conf

set -g set-titles on
set -g set-titles-string "#{pane_current_command}"

Class Aliasing

Some programs have pretty ugly window classes. The hyprlog config file at ~/.config/hypr/hyprlog.conf supports class aliases.

hyprlog.conf

class_alias = "chromium-browser", "chromium"
class_alias = "plasticx", "plastic"
class_alias = "gcr-prompter", "keyring" 
class_alias = ".blueman-manager-wrapped", "blueman"
class_alias = "com.github.wwmm.easyeffects", "easyeffects"
class_alias = "org.gnome.Nautilus", "nautilus"
class_alias = "org.pwmt.zathura", "zathura"
class_alias = "com.network.manager", "nmgui"
