Timesheeting made easy

What is Taxi ?

Taxi is a timesheeting tool that focuses on simplicity to help you write your timesheets without wasting time. All you'll do is edit a text file and write down what you've worked on and how long, like so:

23/01/2014

pingpong 09:00-10:00 Play ping-pong
infra         -11:00 Repair coffee machine

You can then get a summary of your timesheet:

Staging changes :

# Thursday 23 january #
pingpong (123/456)             1.00  Play ping-pong
infra (123/42)                 1.00  Repair coffee machine
                               2.00

Total                          2.00

Use `taxi ci` to commit staging changes to the server

Through the use of backends, Taxi allows you to push your timesheets to different systems.

Installation & usage

The recommended way to install Taxi is by running the following command:

pip install --user taxi

You'll probably want to install a backend too, that will allow you to push your timesheets. To install the Zebra backend for example:

pip install --user taxi-zebra

You can now try to run the taxi command. If you're getting a "command not found" error, make sure that ~/.local/bin/ is in your PATH environment variable (eg. by running echo $PATH). To change your PATH environment variable, you can follow this guide.

Everything else is covered in the user documentation available on Read The Docs: https://taxi-timesheets.readthedocs.org/en/master/userguide.html
