taskwarrior-hamster-hook

A minimal hook for TaskWarrior to help tracking time with hamster-cli

Prerequisites

• Taskwarrior (>= 2.4)
• hamster-cli (>= 2.91.3) (hamster in fedora)
• python (>= 3.3)

Installation

• Copy or link on-modify.hamster into $HOME/.task/hooks/
• Make sure it is executable

Usage

Start and stop tasks using the usual commands in Taskwarrior.

If a "start" is detected, hook will call "hamster-cli start [Task description]@[project], #[TAG1],#[TAG2] "

If a "stop" is detected, hook will call "hamster-cli stop" (effectively stopping any task currently active in hamster).

The '#' and '@' characters within any field (description, project, tags) are replaced by '_' in order to avoid incorrect parsing.
