Monitor My Time (mmtime)

This CLI tool aims at offering a deamon-like process that works in the background and monitors the time that the user had spent on a collection of applications.

This collection of applications can be defined in the ~/.config/mmtime-vX.X/targets file, where every application, that the user wants to track the amount of time he/she spend in, is listed in a sperated time. i.e

    # My target apps.

    Discord 
    Code 
    Slack 
    Mpv 
    Firefox 
    Vim 

The mmtime tool will then track all the time spent on these applications and write that to a db file (~/.local/share/mmtime-vX.X/targets.stats.db).

Besides, there will be a system tray applet that will allow the user to see the current monitoring related stats, this will give the user the ability to see the stats live and also through a menu item reload the configuration file (targets file).
