🧩 Dev Logger VSCode Extension

The Dev Logger VSCode Extension logs developer activity from your editor to a self-hosted Dev Logger backend. It helps track file-level events and lines of code in real-time — perfect for personal retrospectives, team productivity, or agile metrics.

Works out-of-the-box with slry/dev-logger as the backend.


🔍 Features

  • ✍️ File Activity Tracking
    Log file creation, modification, and deletion events automatically.

  • 📊 LOC Metrics
    Track how many lines are added/removed across sessions.

  • 🔗 Backend Integration
    Sends data to your own Dev Logger instance

  • 🪄 Minimal UI
    Auto-starts in the background — just configure once and let it run.


⚙️ Configuration

After installing the extension, open VSCode settings and look for:


Dev Logger › Api Url: [http://localhost:3000/api/send](http://localhost:3000/api/send)
Dev Logger › Api Token: your-api-token

These correspond to the values you configure in your self-hosted Dev Logger dashboard (/settings page).
