# worklog

A tiny Node program that lets you log work to files in `~/Dropbox/worklog` via the terminal.

```sh
worklog [<custom filename>] -m <a message to be logged> [-t <a custom timestamp>]
```

Per default the filename of the file the message is logged to is the current date in the following format: `YYYY-MM-DD.txt`.
To use a custom filename pass the name as the first parameter.

Per default the message logged is prefixed with a timestamp. If you want to customize the timestamp pass your timestamp of choice with the `-t` flag.

Per default worklogs are stored in `Dropbox` folder. With a `-d` flag it is possible to specify an alternative directory:

```sh
worklog -m 'some stuff I did today' -d 'Google Drive'
```

Add this alias to avoid typing `-d` flag every time:

```sh
alias worklog='worklog -d "Google Drive" '
```

## Getting Started
Install the module with: `npm install -g worklog`

Mostly you would use it like this:

```sh
worklog -m 'some stuff I did today'
```

If the file already exists the message is appended.
The contents of a worklog file could look like this:

```text
11:30:20 - did some stuff
14:30:31 - totally did more stuffz
16:31:03 - hangin'
```
