tasktime reads information of a project from taskwarrior and calculates, how much time was spent with this project. tasktime can print CSV or readable output.

Usage

Prepare taskwarrior

You have to add journal.time=on to your taskwarrior configuration (.taskrc). Taskwarrior will save start and stop annotations from now on. This annotations are evaluated by tasktime.

Note time with taskwarrior

taskwarrior has the operations start and stop. This information is used to calculate the spent time. You have to start and stop the tasks you work on.

Example:

task 2 start

# Work on task 2...

task 2 stop
