$ traq -p client-a development
# stops time tracking for client-a
$ traq -p client-a stop
# list tracked times for client-a from today

$ which traqMake sure your $GOPATH is set up properly. Then link traq properly:
$ mkdir -p $HOME/go/src
$ ln -s $HOME/.traq/src/ $HOME/go/src/traq$ go build -o bin/traq app.go$ gofmt -w traq.goIf you have bash-completion installed you can setup bash completion for traq as well. This example assumes you are using HomeBrew and have bash-completion installed.
$ ln -s $TRAQ_PATH/traq_completion.sh $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d/traqUbuntu users can do the following:
$ sudo apt-get install bash-completion
$ echo ". $TRAQ_PATH/traq_completion.sh" >> ~/.bash_profiletraq 0.5 has a different, flatter directory structure. Instead of one directory per year week of the year, we now only have one directory per year.
The following bash script helps you migrate your data:
for directory in $(find $HOME/Library/traq -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d); do
echo $directory
for year in $(find $directory -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d); do
for week in $(find $year -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d); do
for file in $(find $week -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type f); do
cleanfile="${file//timestamps-/}"
mv "$file" "$year/${cleanfile##*/}"
done
rm -fr $week
done
done
doneAll files are placed under
$ $TRAQ_DATA_DIR/timestamps/<current year>/<year>-<month>-<day>
# eg $TRAQ_DATA_DIR/timestamps/2012/2012-12-12
or, if -p <project> was given, under
$ $TRAQ_DATA_DIR/<project>/<current year>/<year>-<month>-<day>
# eg $TRAQ_DATA_DIR/client-a/2012/2012-12-12
Each file can contain multiple lines of the following format:
<timestamp>;<tag>;<comment>
Here's some sample content:
Thu Sep 27 07:05:05 +0400 2012;#foo;Worked on Foo
Thu Sep 27 07:15:05 +0400 2012;#bar;
Thu Sep 27 07:25:05 +0400 2012;stop;
