pippi v0.0.3

Pip

'Cuz Pippi has freckles.

Basic command line tool for logging hours in Freckle. Uses the excellent freckle api bindings from the Node.js library created by Tim Branyan @tbranyen.

Setup

You can install this by installing node and npm and then running:

npm install pippi

Pip reads from a config file, so you'll want to create a ~/.freckle file with the following information and then modify each variable to your specific information.

{
    "subdomain": "apitest.letsfreckle.com",
    "token": "lx3gi6pxdjtjn57afp8c2bv1me7g89j",
    "user": "apitest@letsfreckle.com"
}

Note: your API token can be found by logging into Freckle, clicking on 'settings & tools', and then the API tab.

You'll want to run pippi list at least once to make sure you're connected properly, and to get a list of all projects which will be saved and used for project id lookups.
