What will the logs look like?

The logs will be in the following format:

#############################################################
# Overall time spent on the <YourProjectName> project :
# Total hours: 9 hour(s) and 5 minute(s)
#############################################################

Session of 6 hour(s) and 9 minute(s).  on 01/01/1970
Session of 2 hour(s) and 2 minute(s).  on 02/12/2000
Session of 0 hour(s) and 54 minute(s).  on 29/9/2024

How to get the logs

The plugin will automatically generate a log file in the user:// directory of your project. You can access this file by going to Project -> Open User Data Directory and then navigating to the logs folder.

Depending on your OS the path should look something like this:

• Windows: C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\YourProjectName\dev_time_log.txt
• Linux: ~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata/<YourProjectName>/dev_time_log.txt
• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Godot/app_userdata/<YourProjectName>/dev_time_log.txt

How to change the path of the log file:

If you want to change the path of the log file, you can do so by modifying the file_path property in the time_tracker.gd script in the addon folder.

The default path is user://dev_time_log.txt.
