moritzwachter / calendar-to-mite

Side project to map Google Calendar events to the time tracking software Mite.

Calendar to mite

With this script, you can automatically generate Time Tracking entries for Mite (https://mite.yo.lk/) by mapping your Google Calendar events to specific projects and services.

Workflow

How to / installation

git clone [e-mail]:moritzwachter/calendar-to-mite.git 
cd calendar-to-mite/
npm install
cp .env.dist .env

Log into your Mite-Account and create an API-Key inside your settings page. Paste your API-Token into your .env file.

Additionally, you have to enable the Google Calendar API (https://developers.google.com/calendar/quickstart/nodejs) and save your credentials.json in ./.google/.

Finally, run the application by calling

node calendar2mite.js

Mappings

Use the example-mappings.csv as a sample file for your mappings. The keyword can be any part of your Calendar event's title. The keyword is case-sensitive. You can find your project and service ids either in some Mite reports or by searching through the page's source code id="time_entry_project_id" or id="time_entry_service_id".

Attention

This script in its current version (v0.5) is getting your Google Calendar events for the last 7 days and immediately creates Mite entries for them! To change the timings, check function runApplication(auth) { ... } inside calendar2mite.js.
