CLI tool to manage BairesDev time tracker
npm install -g baires-tracker
Copy the file sample-baires-tracker.env
into your home dir as ~/.baires-tracker.env
and fill out all fields in it.
CLOCKIFY_API_KEY=
CLOCKIFY_WORKSPACE_ID=
TT_USER=
TT_PASSWORD=
TT_FOCAL_POINT=
TT_PROJECT=
TT_CATEGORY=
TT_TASK=
Note: If you plan to use only basic CLI tracking (track
command) you don't need to fill out the clockify section.
To use the API integration you need to first create a login at Clockify and then create an API key at your user settings.
Add your API key to ~/.baires-tracker.env
and the workspace id as well.
You can get your workspace id going to workspace settings and then selecting the settings of the desired workspace. The workspageID is part of the url.
For example in this url https://clockify.me/workspaces/0123456789abcdef/settings
the workspace id is 0123456789abcdef
.
To make clockify integration works smoothly you need to set up your clockify workspace according the equivalence table

---|---|---|
Project | ~/.baires-tracker.env | TT_PROJECT |
Client Focal Point | ~/.baires-tracker.env | TT_FOCAL_POINT |
Task Description | clockify | Project |
