g07cha / pomodoro

A classic time management tool in your menubar

Pomodoro

Time management tool for Windows and macOS inspired by Pomodoro Technique. Build with love and tauri.

Installing

To install the application you can grab the installer for your platform from the latest release, in case of macOS you need to open the app for the first time with Cmd + right mouse button as I don't feel like spending money on a license from Apple to notarize a free application. Alternatively you can also build the release yourself by following the guide below.

Local development

Prerequisites

• Node.js (preferably installed via nvm to match local version)
• Tauri prerequisites

npm install

To run full app execute the following command:

npm start

To build a release for the platform you're running it on execute the following command:

TAURI_PRIVATE_KEY=test npm run build

It will throw an error Error invalid utf-8 sequence of 1 bytes from index 0 in the end due to mismatch in updater private key but will create binaries and installers in src-tauri/target/release/bundle.

pomodoro's Issues

Auto-update doesn't work on Windows 10

When a new version is available, a prompt appears, starting the installation once the user consents, but then the app restarts with the old version showing the update prompt again. Currently, we use MSI installers for updates, maybe NSIS installers could fix this issue.

Feature Request: Allow Pomodoro Timer Window to Always Show

This is a pretty neat app! Here's a feature I'd really enjoy using:

When I open up the pomodoro timer window, I see the visual of the time ticking down.

However, if I click off or lose focus from that window, the window is automatically hidden and I have to click on the menu bar icon to bring the window back.

What do you think about adding in an option to allow the user to keep the pomodoro timer window to never auto-hide on loss of focus? I like being able to have the visual of the circle timer progress counting down without having to click on the menu to bring it back each time (and lose loss of my focus by doing so).

Is this something you'd be interested in? If so I could look into making modifications and submitting a pull request.

Resume/pause shortcut

Config File Not Found

I downloaded the code and followed the install guide, but am getting a config file not found error, causing the app to not load correctly.

How to have pomodoro always visible?

Issue #39 mentions the option "Show timer in menubar", but current version 3.4.2 settings dialog does not have it.

Or, if there is another method to show the timer value unobtrusively, please let me known.
I'm running on Windows 11 64bits.
Thanks!

Add the option to set a custom shortcut tu start/stop the timer

Currently, the shortcut can't be changed so, if other programs are already using it, you can't use it. It would be nice if you could choose a different shortcut

OS X: Use Retina Icons

First of all, this app is great and I wanted to say thank you for putting it together.

Currently the icon is a template icon, which is excellent that you support it. However it doesn't support retina resolution for OS X.

I would've just submitted a PR for this, but the only icon you have is that one in low resolution. Can you add the @2x.png version? I'm happy to do it if you just provide me a higher resolution version of the icon.

Thanks!

Startup path for Windows

Pomodoro also installed in Program Files(x86) folder

Show time in menubar

Optional(must be turned on in settings page)

Relax time spinner

Relax time progress displaying as work time(but timing is correct)

Display slider value dynamically

The OSX download link on the homepage is broken

Write tests

Probably spectron will be most suitable in this case.

windows tray icon color

Using this in win10. Is there a simple way to change the tray icon color? as of now it's black-on-black & it's making me feel like a goth kid

Windows icon

Move app window

There seems no way to move the app window after clicking the tray icon. Causing problems with my toolbar layout with vertical toolbars on a dual monitor set up

Problem with assets in dev

Awesome project! I'm trying to adapt some of the code you've written for a similar timer app.

When I run npm start it looks like it's not loading the assets and bootstrap CSS:

Is there anything else I need to run to get it to work?

Tasklist

TODO list with additional column where spended pomodoros displayed

UPD: This will make application much complicated.

Display pause mode

For now, timer just stops and need to wait few seconds to ensure that timer started/stopped

Dark Mode

Would be great to have a Dark Mode setting; would be cool to integrate with OSX Mohave theme (Light vs Dark)

Missing jQuery

After running npm install, bower install and npm start the app starts missing the clock and this is what I get:
Uncaught Error: Cannot find module 'jquery'

Detect night theme

When it used in Ubuntu or OS X with dark menubar icon becomes almost invisible.

Keep countdown timer active while on break

I find it helpful to have a reminder that I should take a break - sometimes I'm so focused I forget to actually take the break after I click the ok button. If the countdown timer could stay up while it's counting the break, I'd have less incentive to keep my hands on the keyboard.

Launch on startup

Linux version

Are there significant obstacles to creating a version for Linux, or have y'all just not gotten around to packaging it for Linux?

Bower missing JQueryUI dependency

The compiled/non-binary version of this app appears to lack a JQueryUI bower package, making the settings window is non-functional.

High Memory Usage

Not sure if this is an actual issue or not, but considering that it is running in the background, I do not think it should be consuming more memory than Chrome.

I have the latest version of Electron (0.36.7) on Windows 10. After leaving the application on for a couple hours, it consumes nearly 700MB on my system (I did not take a screenshot of this, unfortunately).

Add optional audio signal on the end of a period

Something like sound of the message in iOS and it could be toggled in the settings

Pomodoro count

Progress to see how much 'pomodoro' you have done today

Wiki:

After four pomodoros, take a longer break (15–30 minutes)

you can't reset the "break" timer and restart the normal "pomodoro" timer

Open customisable window rather than dialog window

Hi again!

I'm trying to figure out how to make it so when the timer alert is up, it opens a new window with a given HTML file, so you can put in custom content or reminders in as html files. Do you know how to do that?

Restart time option

Add an option to restart the work or relax time. I searched for it but I couldn't find it. It just pauses.

Settings button doesn't work since 2.1.0 version

I've confirmed this on 2.1.0 and 2.2.0 versions. The button works fine in 2.0 however.

Crashed on "Quit" on Windows 8.1

Just installed the x64 Windows version on Windows 8.1 and gave it a try. When I clicked the "Quit" button during a session, the app crashed with the following error.
