Timesheets

A Python CLI tool that parses markdown pipe-delimited timesheet tables and exports them to CSV for import into Odoo. It also supports a human-readable summary view, a stories list, a work status dashboard, and can fetch notes directly from Joplin.

Config file

Copy timesheets.example.toml to timesheets.toml in the working directory (or pass --config /path/to/file.toml):

[joplin]
token = "your_api_token_here"

[projects]
map = "/path/to/project_map.json"

[work]
daily_hours = 8.0
weekly_hours = 40.0

Priority order: CLI flag > config file > environment variable > default.

Joplin notebook structure

Work/
└── Timesheets/
    └── YYYY/
        └── YYYY - WNN      ← note per week, one table per day

Each table is preceded by a heading of the form # <weekday> - YYYY-MM-DD. Open entries (start time present, end time absent) are used by the status command to calculate expected end time.
