work

work is a stupid simple time tracker.

A typical work-day might look like,

$ work task "First task of the day"

$ work task "Second task of the day" --chore

$ work list
08:29 - 10:20   Chore   Second task of the day  2h 51min
08:19 - 08:29   Work    First task of the day   0h 10min

$ work status
Current task: "Second task of the day"

$ work stop

Usage

To begin a task,

work task "Starting my first task"

Tasks have 1 of 4 possible classifications:

• Chore
• Break
• Toil
• Work

The default is Work and the others are enabled by their respective flag. For example, to create a Break task,

work task --break "Going for lunch"

The previous task will end when a new task begins. Similarly, a task can be stopped explicitly with,

work stop

work status, work list, and work report are available to analyze current and previous tasks.

Autocomplete

work provides shell autocomplete out-of-the-box. To enable autocomplete,

work install-completion
