Make time fly 🐦

A CLI app that automatically creates a Harvest time entry out of your git commits. Made using Ink and Pastel.

Install

$ npm install -g oriole

Commands

`oriole setup`

Set up your Harvest account info on your local machine so that the other oriole commands can function properly.

This will ask you for your Harvest Personal Access Token and account ID (which you can find or create here), and save it to an encrypted JSON file using conf. Please refer to conf's README to find the default location of this file (it depends on your OS). If you're using macOS, it should be:

~/Library/Preferences/oriole-nodejs/orioleStore.json

If you're done using oriole, feel free to delete this file at any time. You'll just need to re-run oriole setup the next time you run a command.

`oriole init`

Initialize the current repo with a Harvest project ID and task ID. These IDs will then be used when running oriole push to create a Harvest timesheet entry.

If your current working directory is a valid git repository, this command will make a GET request to your Harvest account (using the token and account ID you provided in oriole setup) and show you a list of your available Harvest projects and their corresponding tasks.

Once you've selected a project and task, it will save those IDs to your encrypted conf store, and will be used when running oriole push. Essentially, this command links your current local git repo with a Harvest project/task.

`oriole push`

Additional arguments:

--hours, -h  Set the hours spent on this Harvest entry.    [number] [required]
--date, -d   Get the commits made on the specified date.              [string]

This is the main command for oriole. Using oriole push, you can create a timesheet entry out of the most recent git commit messages in your current repo (made either on the current day or on the specified date using --date). After confirmation, oriole will create a Harvest time entry using the previously-specified Harvest project/task, and POST it to your account.

In the event that the same project/task entry is already in your Harvest account on the day you specified (if, for example, you added it manually), oriole will ask whether you would like to replace that existing entry or create a new one. If there are multiple entries, choosing to replace will only replace the most recent entry.

`oriole pto`

Additional arguments:

--year, -y  The year for which you'd like to see the total number of PTO hours spent.	[number]

Run this command to have oriole calculate the total number of PTO hours spent in the current calendar year. It will only calculate the PTO hours spent for the Tivix internal Harvest project and task.

Optionally pass in a different year to get the total PTO hours for that year instead.
