Supported Integrations
WeeklyTimelog is an Automatic Time tracking for Developers, that integrates with terminal, git repositories, popular task managers (Asana, Trello, YouTrack, Jira, etc), and many other developer productivity tools.
The CLI is designed to help developers (and net admins) to track their terminal activities such as SSHing into servers, deploying, running tests, documenting maintenance work, etc. You may execute the WT command directly from the command line in manual mode (start/stop mode) or add the command to shell scripts or cron jobs to record the activity (as they are triggered).

Usage:
wt activity <description>
Sample:
wt activity "coding wt cli"
Describes the task performed and time spent allocated to a project. Timelogs are visible by project owner for further reporting, cost analysis, share with clients in real time, etc.
Usage:
wt timelog <hours> <description> [-p projectId]
projectId is optional.
Samples:
wt timelog 1h30m "server maintenance"
wt timelog 1.5 "server maintenance"
Manually run last command to record all your ssh access history activites.
Update your bash profile to start tracking time when SSHing into server. vim ~/.bashrc and add wt activity "Connecting to server for maintenance"
Update you deployment and testing script to automatically create activities (reminders)
SSH into server or from local terminal, use start command to record your activity.
Manually issue activity and timelogs commands on demand.
The cli will provide basic commands but further customization can be done from any language thru our API.
Q. Is the CLI hooked $PROMPT_COMMAND ? A. NO. we are not reading the prompt, logs, tty output or any other sensitive data.
Q. Is the CLI sending the entire session to the server? A. NO. we are basically executing a API restfull call (to our server) with the activity description, time spent and host name.
Q. Is the CLI secure ? A. YES, source code can be accessed https://gitlab.com/fabian-castillo-developer/weeklytimelog-cli for review.
