This is my first project written in Go. Dave is a CLI tool which automates some taks I do at work such as: add a reminder for a certain day and receive and email me when time is due, add credentials from various projects, cancel the noise by blocking certain websites. In the future I might add new commands.
Go should be installed and set up on your system. Tested with version go1.7.1
So far this tool is available only for Linux distributions. However besides focus and focus-clear, the rest of the commands should also work on Windows/Mac OS.
SQLite must be installed on your system. This version was tested with sqlite3.
You should have a mailgun account. You can set-up a free account there and just use the sandbox credentials. It should be enough for the reminders you add(max 10.000 mails per month).
- Prepare the executable
$ go get github.com/zuzuleinen/dave
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/zuzuleinen/dave/
$ go install
$ dave install
$ dave- Add your e-mail and the list of websites you want to block in dave/config/user.go
- Add mailgun credentials in dave/config/mailgun.go
- Set up the daemon which can be started with
$ dave cli
Usage:
dave <command>
List of commands:
install: Install the SQLite database.
remind: Create a new reminder.
reminders: List all pending reminders.
credential: Add a new credential record.
credentials: List all credentials.
focus: Block websites from config/user.go/FavouriteWebSites
focus-clear: Unblock websites from config/user.go/FavouriteWebSites
Options:
-h --help Show this screen.
-v, --version Show version.Since dave focus and dave focus-clear requires sudo, you should add an alias. Add these 2 lines in you .bashrc file:
alias focus='sudo env "PATH=$PATH" dave focus'
alias focus-clear='sudo env "PATH=$PATH" dave focus-clear'
Now, you can use focus and focus-clear commands.
If you encounter a problem feel free to open an issue.
