Continuous Integration

hopla - a command line interface (CLI) for habitica.com

Hopla is a XDG-compliant CLI which uses python3 to interact with the Habitica API.

Hopla is currently under active development so new features are added rapidly.

How to Use Hopla

Installation

Hopla can be installed by running the following command:

python3 -m pip install --user hopla-cli

First Time Usage

Hopla needs your User Id and API Token to connect to Habitica. You can find these over at https://habitica.com/user/settings/api.

Run the following command to configure this automatically:

$ hopla authenticate 
Please enter your credentials.
You can find them over at <https://habitica.com/user/settings/api>.
They have the following format: 'c0ffee69-dada-feed-abb1-5ca1ab1ed004'.
The user id can be found under 'User ID'.
Please paste your user ID here (press Ctrl-C to abort): c0ffee69-dada-feed-abb1-5ca1ab1ed004
Please paste your user API Token here (input remains hidden):

This will create a credentials file at ~/.config/hopla/authenticate.conf that Hopla uses. If you want to use a different file, you can set the ${HOPLA_AUTH_FILE} environment variable to choose your own file.

Autocompletion

If you want bash autocompletion, you can run the following command:

$ hopla complete bash --enable
enabled autocompletion
restart bash to make use of it

To make use of the autocompletion you need to reload your bashrc. You can do this by either opening up a new terminal window, or running bash again, or running source ~/.bashrc.

To print the autocomplete code for bash|zsh|fish, so that you can install it yourself, optionally run:

# optionally, install the autocomplete code yourself:
hopla complete bash
hopla complete zsh
hopla complete fish

Everyday Usage

After installation, you can use hopla. The supported commands can be found by running:

$ hopla --help

Environment Variables for Hopla's options

Use case: You can use environment variables to set default values for all Hopla options.

Hopla automatically recognizes environment variables starting with HOPLA_. All option (such as --difficulty for hopla add todo and --times for hopla feed) can be set in this manner.

To get the right environment variable name, use this logic:

  1. Define an environment variable starting with HOPLA_

  2. Append the subcommand to the environment variable as follows:

    • hopla add todo -> HOPLA_ADD_TODO_
    • hopla support-development -> HOPLA_SUPPORT_DEVELOPMENT_
    • hopla feed -> HOPLA_FEED_
  3. Append the option name that you want to set as follows:

    • hopla add todo --difficulty -> HOPLA_ADD_TODO_DIFFICULTY
    • hopla support-development --gems -> HOPLA_SUPPORT_DEVELOPMENT_GEMS
    • hopla feed --times -> HOPLA_FEED_TIMES

For example:

HOPLA_ADD_TODO_DIFFICULTY=hard    hopla add todo "Hello"
HOPLA_SUPPORT_DEVELOPMENT_GEMS=8  hopla support-development
HOPLA_FEED_AMOUNT=3               hopla feed Wolf-Shade Chocolate

Other examples:

# add a To-Do for today
HOPLA_ADD_TODO_DUE_DATE=today hopla add todo "Task with Deadline from today"

# automatically enable autocomplete for bash 
HOPLA_COMPLETE_ENABLE=true    hopla complete bash
HOPLA_COMPLETE_ENABLE=yes     hopla complete bash
HOPLA_COMPLETE_ENABLE=1       hopla complete bash

# only print autocomplete for bash
HOPLA_COMPLETE_ENABLE=0       hopla complete bash   
HOPLA_COMPLETE_ENABLE=false   hopla complete bash   
HOPLA_COMPLETE_ENABLE=no      hopla complete bash   

Background

Hopla is a XDG-compliant bash-based command line interface (CLI). It was created because no other CLI supported the creation of To-Dos with both a due date and a checklist. Hopla provides the following command to create these with the following command:

# Add a hard To-Do. Every line in the specified file will being added as
#  an item of this To-Do's checklist.
hopla add todo --difficulty hard \
               --due-date 2027-12-07 \
               --checklist ./my_todo.txt \
               "my todo name here"

The most simple way to add a To-Do would be to run hopla add todo without arguments. Hopla will then prompt you for a To-Do name:

$ hopla add todo
Please provide a name for your todo: Feed the dog
