# worklog

simple workday recording with a basic rest api


## endpoints

| method | url | arguments | description | 
| ------ | --- | --------- | ----------- |
| `get` | /csv| from=DD.MM.YYYY<br>to=DD.MM.YYYY | get recordings (in range) as csv |
| `get` | /json| from=DD.MM.YYYY<br>to=DD.MM.YYYY | get recordings (in range) as json |
| `get` | /today |  | get aggregated recordings for today as json (if any) |
| `post` | /start | | start a new recording | 
| `post` | /stop | | stop the current recording (if any) |

**note:**  
the api uses basic authentication so each request has to include an `Authorization` request header.

## examples

**start a new recording:**  
curl -X POST -u username:password http://localhost:3333/start

**stop the current recording:**  
curl -X POST -u username:password http://localhost:3333/stop

**get all recordings as json:**  
curl -u username:password http://localhost:3333/json

**get all recordings for january 2023 as csv:**  
curl -u username:password http://localhost:3333/csv?from=01.01.2023&to=31.01.2023

## configuration

configuration is entirely done inside the file `config.yml`.  
you can specify the location of the config file with the optional argument `--config` or `-c` when starting the server.  
otherwise the program will try to find a config file at the following locations:
- `$HOME/.config/worklog/config.yml`
- `$PWD/config.yml`
