cdlpto 0.2.1

Fill out the CDL PTO PDF form

cdlpto

This is a command line application that will fill out CDL's PTO request form for you.

cdlpto 2023-06-26 --n-days 5 --comment "Summer Vacation"

After writing the PDF, the program will pop it open in Preview. It also opens an email draft in the Gmail web interface. Drag the document proxy icon from Preview's title bar to the compose window and hit send.

Installation

Use pipx:

pipx install cdlpto

Plain old pip will work too.

Or, if you want a development version, use:

pip install --editable git+https://github.com/baldwint/cdlpto#egg=cdlpto

Configuration

On first run, a config file is put in ~/Library/Application Support/cdlpto. This is where you configure your name, email signature, and the person you send the form to. You should also put a blank, signed copy of the PDF form in this folder for use as a template.

Usage

Run cdlpto --help to see the options. It can also do sick leave, floating holidays, etc.

Limitations

It doesn't know about weekends or the CDL holiday schedule. So don't give it any multi-week spans, or spans that include days you don't need to take PTO for.
