requirement

We need the following things to create a new activity:

• Project ID ✅ done
• Issue ID 👈 current focus 🎯
• Start time ⚠️ pending
• End time ⚠️ pending
• Message ✅ done

Currently auto-timesheet fetches git-commit-messages from Github and use it as the message for timesheet activity. We need to somehow extract the issue id from commit messages.

Proposal

Just a proposal to start thinking..

Lets use ti#tags with commit messages. While making a commit message, mention the timesheet issue with a hashtag like:

Adds extra details to fetch details api. ti#fetchDetails

(where fetchDetails is the timesheet issue corresponding to our commit)

We can extract that ti# tag and find that issue-id.

How to detect issue-id from extracted tags?

Looks like timesheet uses an api to fetch all issues (description and id) corresponding to a project. We call that api and get those data. Now we've to match our hashtag with the issue description to get the id.

Why ti# ?

Github uses hashtags to map stuffs made in Github itself (PR/issues). Prepending ti (stands for Timesheet Issue) with it resolve that conflict.

How to handling multiple ti# tags in a message ?

If a timesheet msg contains multiple ti# tags, let's choose one in random..

you know stuff

Add an update available notification
with update-available

timesheet rejecting the content msg with more than 250 chars.

shrink down the msg and make it in between 120 and 250. 😸

Currently showing some err that can't be understood.

in config file, change git to github
So that we can flawlessly determine b/w git services.
use also gitlab & bitbucket fields

• make auto-timesheet command
• auto-timesheet set-credentials to set credentials
• auto-timesheet config for setting configuration
• auto-timesheet start to start the application

yea

make all urls and related stuff configurable

Add ti# instead of #
handle 'failed to detect tags' case.

Detect current version automatically

Integrate bitbucket

User doesn't accidentally corrupt the default conf.
use Object.assign() to merge them.
If user's conf failed to load, use default conf

We need the following things to create a new activity:

• Project ID ✅ done
• Issue ID ⚠️ pending
• Start time 👈 current focus 🎯
• End time 👈 current focus 🎯
• date 👈 current focus 🎯
• Message ✅ done

track start, end times and dates..

now the credentials are hard-coded which is bad.
Let the user set their username and password as credentials so that the program should automatically log them in

Improve interfaces

so that we can integrate gitlab as well without messing with the app logic

Make a study on how to integrate gitlab on it.
and do required stuff.
