A Visual Studio Code extension that tracks your coding activity — commits, lines added/removed, and repository insights — all visualized inside VS Code. Our objective is to help users stay focused on their coding/assignments through easily observable progression and stats; all without leaving your editor.

• Live Git Commit Tracking - Monitor your commits in real-time
• Line Statistics - Track lines added and removed per session
• Plotly Visualizations - Interactive charts and heatmaps for commit activity
• Time Tracking - See how much time you've spent on a repository (session, weekly, total)
• Visual Dashboard - Integrated sidebar with multiple views (Clocks, Commits, Changes)

1. Open VS Code
2. Go to Extensions (Ctrl+Shift+X or Cmd+Shift+X)
3. Search for "Statosaurus"
4. Click Install

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/MarcusLages/vs-stats.git
   cd vs-stats

2. Install Node.js dependencies:

   npm install

3. Install Python dependencies (for visualization scripts):

   python -m venv .venv
   .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1  # Windows PowerShell
   # or: source .venv/bin/activate  # macOS/Linux
   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Press F5 in VS Code to launch the extension in debug mode

• VS Code
• Node.js
• Python
• Git

Node.js (Extension):

• vscode.git extension (built-in)

Python (Visualization):

• plotly (6.4.0) - Interactive charts
• vscode
• vscode.git

See package.json and requirements.txt for complete dependency lists.

1. Open a Git repository in VS Code
2. Access Statosaurus from the Activity Bar (sidebar icon)
3. View your stats in three panels:
   • Clocks: Session, weekly, and total time tracking
   • Commits: Commit heatmap for the last 7 days
   • Changes: Lines added/removed graphs

The extension includes standalone Python scripts for generating visualizations:

Line Graph (Lines Added/Removed):

# From file
python src/visualization/lineGraphs.py data.json

# From stdin
echo '{"linesAdded":[10,7,12,15,8,20,5],"linesDeleted":[2,3,1,4,0,5,2]}' | python src/visualization/lineGraphs.py

Commit Heatmap:

# From file
python src/visualization/commitMap.py commitdata.json

# From stdin
echo '{"commits":[5,10,3,8,12,6,15]}' | python src/visualization/commitMap.py

This extension does not currently add any configurable settings.

• Initial time tracking may not start immediately on first activation
• Large repositories may experience slight delays in commit tracking
• Python visualizations require manual execution (not yet integrated into extension UI)
