time.txt

Simple plain-text time tracking.

The Python script tx provides short-hands for accessing and reading a time.txt file, as described below.

Usage

Create a new time.txt file at the current location: tx create

Add a time entry: tx add 01:00 Totally productive work

View the total unbilled time: tx total or simply tx

Remove time which was billed: tx bill 05:00 Fee note for this month

Format

The time.txt file is written in the following format:

2020-08-12 01:00 Work on Task 1
2020-08-12 03:00 Work on Task 2
2020-08-16 05:00 Finish Task 2
2020-08-31 -08:00 Fee note for August

With this file, the total amount of (unbilled) hours is 01:00.

All tx commands are simply short-hands for accessing and reading this file comfortably. It can be edited manually at any time.
