If you use WakaTime to track your coding activity. You can add that to your README as a bar graph or embed in your blog/portfolio. Just add this action to any of your repository and there you have it. See mine below.
- First get your WakaTime API Key. You can get it from your WakaTime account settings.
- Save WakaTime API Key to Repository Secret. Find that by clicking the Settings tab. Keep the name of secret as WAKATIME_API_KEY.
- Add following line in your README.md of your repo.
<img src="https://github.com/<username>/<repository-name>/blob/<branch-name>/images/stat.svg" alt="Alternative Text"/>
Example: <img src="https://github.com/avinal/avinal/blob/main/images/stat.svg" alt="Avinal WakaTime Activity"/>You can use this method to embed in web pages too. Do not use markdown method of inserting images. It does not work some times.
- Click Action tab and choose set up a workflow yourself.
- Copy the following code into the opened file, you can search for WakaTime Stat in marketplace tab for assistance.
