Usage

clocking was born to be a python library that offers a command line utility. For more information, see the official documentation on ReadTheDocs.

As a command line

Use the command line to track and take daily hours worked on projects or not.

$ clocking -h
usage: clocking [-h] {config,cfg,c,set,st,s,delete,del,d,print,prt,p} ...

tracking or monitoring worked hours

positional arguments:
  {config,cfg,c,set,st,s,delete,del,d,print,prt,p}
                        commands to run
    config (cfg, c)     default's configuration
    set (st, s)         setting values
    delete (del, d)     remove values
    print (prt, p)      print values

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

Configuration

clocking uses configurations to apply automatically determine information when insert data into database; these configurations to creates in command line through config section.

# Create configuration
$> clocking config --daily-hours 8 --hour-reward 10 --extraordinary-reward 12 --location "Milan Office" --currency €
# Print configuration
$> clocking config --print
...
# Enable/load configuration
$> clocking config --select-id 1
# Or all in one
$> clocking config --daily-hours 8 --hour-reward 10 --extraordinary-reward 12 --location "Milan Office" --currency € --select-id 1 --print

Use config action also to delete or clean configurations:

# Delete configuration
$> clocking config --delete-id 1
# Clean all configurations
$> clocking config --reset

Setting

clocking uses set mode to insert data into own database; insert data in command line through set section.

# Set current working day
$> clocking set --hours 8
# Set other working day
$> clocking set --hours 9.5 --date '11/25/2022'
# Set disease
$> clocking set --disease
# Set holiday
$> clocking set --holiday
# Set custom value
$> clocking set --custom 'Today I not work! I play guitar!'
# Set custom day value: this month, this year but first day
$> clocking set --hours 8 --day 1
# Set custom month value: this day, this year but month november
$> clocking set --hours 8 --month 11
# Set custom year value: this day, this month but year 2022
$> clocking set --hours 8 --year 2021
# Set extraordinary hours
$> clocking set --hours 8 --extraordinary 1
# Set permit hours
$> clocking set --hours 7 --permit 1
# Set other hours
$> clocking set --hours 8 --other 0.5
# Set location
$> clocking set --hours 8 --location 'Milan Office, p.za Duomo'
# Set description
$> clocking set --hours 8 --description 'Project: #1'
# Set all
$> clocking set --hours 8 --day 5 --month 5 --year 2019 --location 'Milan Office' \
    --description 'Study Programming Python' --extraordinary 1 --other 1
# Reset a day, without prompt
$> clocking set --date '10/09/2023' --reset --force
# Delete a day, without prompt
$> clocking set --date '10/09/2023' --remove --force

Deleting

clocking uses delete mode to delete data from own database; delete data in command line through delete section.

# Delete working first day of month
$> clocking delete --day 1
Delete day.
To continue? [y/N]
# Delete working first day of month, without prompt
$> clocking delete --day 1 --force
# Delete precise date, without prompt
$> clocking delete --date 2/2/2021 --force
# Delete whole month (current year), without prompt
$> clocking delete --month 11 --force
# Delete whole year 2022, without prompt
$> clocking delete --year 2022 --force
# Delete whole user data, without prompt
$> clocking delete --clear --force

Printing

clocking uses print mode to print data from own database; print data in command line through print section.

# Print day
$> clocking print --date '01/25/2022'

As a python module

All useful functions to create scripts or software to track time on projects or days worked, are found in the core module: clocking.core

I create a simple script that tracks hours worked daily.

from sys import argv
from clocking.core import *

mydb = 'mydb.db'
user = 'myuser'

# Create configuration if not was created
if not get_current_configuration(mydb, user):
    # Update version
    update_version(mydb)
    # Create default configuration
    create_configuration_table(mydb)
    add_configuration(mydb,
                      active=True,
                      user=user,
                      location='Italy Office',
                      empty_value='not work!',
                      daily_hours=8.0,
                      working_days="Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri",
                      extraordinary=0.5,
                      permit_hours=1.0,
                      disease='disease',
                      holiday='holiday',
                      currency='€',
                      hour_reward=7.5,
                      extraordinary_reward=8.5,
                      food_ticket=0,
                      other_hours=0,
                      other_reward=8.0
                      )
    enable_configuration(mydb, row_id=1)

# Insert daily hours...
insert_working_hours(mydb, user, argv[1])

# ...and print it!
print_working_table(get_working_hours(mydb, user))
