Alright, this system needs to be robust and easy to use. I shouldn't have to do ANYTHING extra to use this
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
2 ways to do it
 | 
						|
Have a file for each day and clock in and out 
 | 
						|
have a master log and parse the log
 | 
						|
parsing the log seems significantly easier
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
File name can be generic because it gets cleaned as part of an accumulation script
 | 
						|
i.e. timesheet.log
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Everytime a user logs in echo
 | 
						|
I, DATE, TIME to the file
 | 
						|
A logout or i3lock echos
 | 
						|
O, DATE, TIME to the same file
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
can be dead simple as far as the logging goes
 | 
						|
clock -i to clock in
 | 
						|
clock -o to clock out
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Parser will have to be a bit more robust
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
hell with a parser, I have a better system. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Steps
 | 
						|
1) On login echo date, start time >> to a csv
 | 
						|
2) On logout echo end time, total uptime \n to same csv
 | 
						|
    Ending format:
 | 
						|
    Date, Time in, Time out, Total
 | 
						|
    11/11, 11:00,  12:00,    1
 | 
						|
3) On every wednesday mv to a non-temp file for tracking and destroy csv
 | 
						|
notes)
 | 
						|
    - Should be robust as hell as it will log entries into a seperate entry for the same date which can be compressed manually
 | 
						|
    - Column -s -t ',' < csv should make for easy viewing in terminal
 | 
						|
    - should be deadsimple to implement a way to track pay periods or modifyed command for entries
