Hours Calculator
This script implements an hours calculator which has 3 modes that can be piped to each other to achieve the desired results.
Below are the modes description:
- elapsed_hours: Given a date's hours range record, returns the total elapsed hours on that day. E.g.:
COMMAND:
$ echo '# 14/01 (09:00 12:50 13:55 18:30)' | python calculator.py --mode elapsed_hours
OUTPUTS:
14/01 - 08:25
- hours_balance: Given a date and a sum of hours, calculates the hours balance, using 8 hours as a reference. E.g.:
COMMAND:
$ echo '14/01 - 08:25' | python calculator.py --mode hours_balance
OUTPUTS:
14/01 - 00:25
- total_hours: Given hours records, return the sum of all of them. E.g.:
COMMAND:
$ echo -e '20/01 - 01:30\n19/01 - 00:35\n18/01 - -00:20\n15/01 - 00:45\n14/01 - 00:25\n' | python calculator.py --mode total_hours
OUTPUTS:
2:55
The commands can be piped between them, so that you can get what you want from a file with time records (you can be smart here using grep to get the desired records from any file, since it has lines on the desired format ;).
A sample input file is included on this directory so that you can experiment with the possibilities. There are also make commands you can run from this folder to get the idea:
$ make example-run-elapsed-hours-mode-on-sample-file # runs "elapsed hours" mode on the sample input file
$ make example-run-hours-balance-mode-on-sample-file # runs "hours_balance" mode on the sample input file
$ make example-run-total-hours-balance-mode-on-sample-file # runs "total-hours" mode on the sample input file
