Evaluating the Integral of $pi e^{pi overline z}$ with respect to $z$

I've been given a question as part of the homework on Complex Integration. I cannot seem to think how to integrate it especially with the presence of the conjugate of $z$ in the expression
$$displaystyleint_gamma pi e ^{pi overline z} dz$$ where $gamma$ is the line segment from $i$ to $0$. What method can I use to integrate the expression having $overline z$ with respect to $z$?
Note: Here $overline z$ is the conjugate of $z$

A straight line from $i$ to $0$? So, the real part will always be $0$ and $overline z$ will be the same as $- z$.

Would it equal $-2$?

Parametrize the path $gamma$:
$$
gamma = {z = x + i y ~|~ x = 0 ~mbox{ and } y = 1 - t, ~ 0leq 0 leq 1}
$$
Along this path
$$
{rm d}z = -i{rm d}t
$$
So that
$$
int_gamma pi e^{pi overline{z}}~{rm d}z = -ipi int_0^1 e^{-ipi (1 - t)}{rm d}t = (cdots)
$$
