A little project to make sure I keep on track of my monthly goals of working hours.

Toggl Target

At work, we track our working hours on Toggl (www.toggl.com), so I created this small project to calculate how many hours I should work to achieve my monthly goals.

You will need to install requests and dateutil python libraries to be able to use this.

Installation on linux

If you are using linux, you most probably have Python already installed on your machine. If not, use your distro's package management system to install Python 2.7

• Download and extract the source code from here
• Navigate to the extracted directory and run the following command to install the required packages :

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

• Copy config.py-example to config.py
• In config.py add your Toggl API token, which can be found in your Toggl account's settings.
• Change other values in config.py to match your case

Installation on Windows

• If you don't have Python installed, then you must install Python 2.7 from here
• Open the Windows command shell
• In the command shell, run the following commands

python distribute_setup.py
easy_install pip
pip install python-dateutil requests

• Download toggl_target from here
• Extract the downloaded zip file, copy config.py-example & paste it as config.py beside run.py
• Change your API key in config.py Your Toggl API token can be found in your Toggl account's settings.
• Run python run.py

Usage

To use the script run the following command :

$ python run.py

The output will be something like :

Hi
Checking Internet connectivity...
Internet seems fine!

Trying to connect to Toggl, hang on!
