Weekly Planner

By Jason Yao

Made as a 2019 winter gift for my SO, so she can now obsessively plan everything on her own terms

This repo will automatically generate the custom weekly planner and then distribute it to be publicly available.

The program makes it easy to dynamically create a planner:

• For a given year
  • python run.py 2053 && xelatex weekly-planner-2053.tex
• For multiple years

  • python run.py 2053 2054 2020 1997 \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-2053.tex \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-2054.tex \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-2020.tex \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-1997.tex
    

• With a set of primary/secondary colors

  • python run.py 2053 \
    --primary-color WILD_WATERMELON \
    --secondary-color WINDSOR_TAN \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-2053.tex
    

  • To see all available colors with some sample coloring, run python run.py --show-color, which will output the following:
  • 
• With a certain start day of the week (e.g. monday, tuesday, etc.) for the weekly planner
  • python run.py 2053 --planner-start-day wednesday && xelatex weekly-planner-2053.tex
  • 
• With a certain start day of the week (e.g. monday, tuesday, etc.) for the mini monthly calendar
  • python run.py 2053 --calendar-start-day thursday && xelatex weekly-planner-2053.tex
  • 
• Or all of the above all at once!

  • python run.py 1920 2054 2020 1997 \
    --primary-color WILD_WATERMELON \
    --secondary-color WINDSOR_TAN \
    --planner-start-day tuesday \
    --calendar-start-day friday \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-1920.tex \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-2054.tex \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-2020.tex \
    && xelatex weekly-planner-1997.tex

Every run, the following years will be generated:

• The current year
• The next year
