hourly 0.3.2

A simple git-based hour tracking tool

Hourly

A simple hour tracker for git projects, hourly parses your commit messages for clock-in and clock-out keywords and uses their unix timestamps to precisely calculate work hours.

Usage

To clock in:

  hourly-in

The above command updates the WorkLog.md file, and commits it with the message "clock-in". Feel free to edit this log file to provide supporting documentation for this work session.

When you are finished committing other work for this session, you may clock out:

  hourly-out

When you are ready to generate a timesheet for your repo, run hourly from your git directory:

  hourly

Hourly parses all the commit messages for clock in/out keywords and uses git's timestamps to determine how long each session lasted.

For example, here's what happens when you run hourly on the hourly repo itself:

  hourly repo.start_date="2018-10-21" repo.end_date="2019-3-10" repo.ignore="pro bono"

pay period: 2018-10-28 13:44:48-04:00 -> 2019-02-25 12:49:51-05:00
ignoring pro bono
                     TimeIn           LogIn                   TimeOut          LogOut TimeDelta     Hours
0 2018-10-28 13:44:48-04:00        clock in 2018-10-28 13:56:35-04:00       clock out  00:11:47  0.196389
1 2019-02-25 10:19:10-05:00  clock in T-1hr 2019-02-25 12:49:51-05:00  clock out T-5m  02:30:41  2.511389
0 days 02:42:28, 2.71 hours worked

To store the logs in a csv file, include an ouput prefix:

hourly repo.start_date="2018-10-21" repo.end_date="2019-3-10" repo.ignore="pro bono" report.filename=Pembroke
pay period: 2018-10-28 13:44:48-04:00 -> 2019-02-25 12:49:51-05:00
ignoring pro bono

To generate an invoice using btcpay:

hourly invoice=btcpay payment=btcpay repo.start_date="Jan 1, 2020" repo.end_date="Jan 6, 2020"

Getting Started

Hourly is hosted on github under the Apache 2.0 license: https://github.com/asherp/hourly

Install

pip install hourly

Requirements

• pandas
• gitpython
• plotly
• hydra
• stripe (optional)
• btcpay-python (optional)

You can get these dependencies like this:

pip install pandas gitpython plotly
pip install hydra-core --upgrade

For invoicing:

pip install btcpay-python
pip install stripe

For hourly's docs:

pip install mkdocs mkdocs-material markdown-include mknotebooks

Tests

I use the pytest suite with pytest-cov

pip install pytest pytest-cov

To run the tests, navigate to the base of this repo, then

py.test tests.py --cov=hourly

Configuration

Hourly uses Hydra for customized configuration. The full options are given by hourly's help command:

hourly --help

A simple hour tracker for git projects

This application helps users clock in and out of git repos,
as well as generate timesheets for invoicing.

Hourly's default configuration including comments can be seen here.

{! cli/conf/hourly.yaml !}

Each of these can be overridden at runtime. For example,

hourly commit.clock=in vis=null report.timesheet=False

This will update the WorkLog.md file and commit a clock-in message without visualizing or printing the timesheet.

!!! note hourly-in is just syntactic sugar for hourly commit.clock=in vis=null report.timesheet=False.

But if we want to override hourly's defaults without typing them in each time, we can specify an hourly.yaml file in our git repo. Hourly will look for this file (via the config_override option) and override its default configuration.

!!! bug Your project's config_override will even override command line arguments!

An example of a custom override file is found in the top-level of the hourly repo:

{! hourly.yaml !}

A common use case would be permanently overriding the filename of the work_log you are committing against, to avoid merge conflicts if multiple developers are working on the same project.
