v1.1.0

Full Changelog: v1.0.0...v1.1.0

v1.0.0

First release: a small tool that finds the best time to leave for your commute by measuring it, instead of trusting Google Maps' wide estimate ranges.

Features

• Adaptive polling of the Google Routes API (traffic-aware): every minute during configurable rush windows, every 10 minutes off-peak, optional active window — ~6,600 calls/week for both directions, inside the ~10k/month free tier
• Two-direction tracking in one SQLite database (morning and evening commutes from a single run)
• Weekly report (report.html): median commute vs. departure time per weekday, plus best-departure tables within each rush window with minutes saved vs. the worst slot
• Live watching (commute watch): regenerates the report plus a day-by-day sub-report mid-run so you can see data before the week is done
• Preflight check (commute check): validates config, API key, database, live API access, and estimates quota usage
• Auto-stop timer (poll -d 7d): ends the run and generates the report automatically
• Demo mode to preview the report with a synthetic week of data
• Zero dependencies beyond Python 3.9+; works on Windows, macOS, and Linux

Known limitations

• Polling pauses if the machine sleeps or reboots (no auto-restart; disable sleep for the run)
• Multi-week data blends by weekday — use one week per database
• API errors are logged but not retried with backoff
• No packaging/tests; run from the repo with python -m commute
