Omni Weekly - Weekly Generator for Lazybones
After working as a software developer for two years, I find writing weekly report a really tough experience.
I spent lots of time doing trivial daily works and finally I can't recall them when I need to write the fucking report.
I have to spend time writing what I did this week instead of creating useful code pieces or having some fun.
Now with Omni Weekly, I can log what I did, what I am doing, what I plan to do into a fucking expensive GTD software called OmniFocus on the weekdays, and than generate a well formatted report when I need to.
It was first implement with Apple's ScriptBridge, but I rewrote it and it's base on OmniFocus's SQLite database now!
Installation
pip install git+https://github.com/JamesPan/py-omni-weekly.git
Maybe sudo is needed for privilege issue.
Usage
After install, weekly command is in your path. See what we can do with weekly.
usage: weekly [-h] [-t TEMPLATE] [-d DEADLINE] [-p PERIOD] [-tz TIMEZONE]
[-db DATABASE]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-t TEMPLATE, --template TEMPLATE
absolute path of template file
-d DEADLINE, --deadline-date DEADLINE
-p PERIOD, --period-days PERIOD
-tz TIMEZONE, --timezone TIMEZONE
-db DATABASE, --database DATABASE
Every argument has default value. Of cause the default template is for myself, I just need to type weekly and my
report for this week up to today will be print to stdout. You can use -t or --template to pass the absolute path
of a customize jinja2 template file to Omni Weekly, and pray for rendering properly.
$ weekly
1. 已经完成：
2. 仍在进行：

- 颐养天年
[估计进度 ??%]
3. 下周计划：

It seems I did nothing this week. With -d or --deadline we can reproduce weekly earlier or even later.
$ weekly -d 2016-10-07
1. 已经完成：

On my Macbook, OmniFocus place it's SQLite database on
~/Library/Containers/com.omnigroup.OmniFocus2/Data/Library/Caches/com.omnigroup.OmniFocus2/OmniFocusDatabase2, but
this path may be different on your Mac, it depends on the App version. So, -db and --database can help passing the
right path of database to Omni Weekly.
Other arguments like -tz is for timezone, default is 'Asia/Shanghai'，'-p' is for reporting period, 7 for weekly, 1
for daily, 30 for monthly, etc.
Happy Hacking!
