Example Usage

Is now a working day?

Silent answer:

❯ arbejdstimer now --config test/fixtures/basic/holidays-config.json || echo "OFF"
OFF

Explaining the reasons and answering:

❯ arbejdstimer explain --config test/fixtures/basic/holidays-config.json || echo "OFF"
read valid configuration from (test/fixtures/basic/holidays-config.json)
consider 12 holidays:
- Day (2022-10-23) is not a holiday
- Day is weekend.
OFF

Another example from test fixtures:

❯ arbejdstimer explain --config test/fixtures/basic/triplet-holidays-config.json
read valid configuration from (test/fixtures/basic/triplet-holidays-config.json)
consider 3 holidays:
- Day (2022-10-23) is not a holiday
- Day is weekend.

The same example from test fixtures with verbatim explanation mode on:

❯ arbejdstimer explain -v -c test/fixtures/basic/triplet-holidays-config.json
read valid configuration from (test/fixtures/basic/triplet-holidays-config.json)
configuration has 19 lines of (indented) JSON content:
    1 | {
    2 |   "api": 1,
    3 |   "application": "arbejdstimer",
    4 |   "operator": "or",
    5 |   "holidays": [
    6 |     {
    7 |       "label": "triplet holiday",
    8 |       "at": [
    9 |         "2021-12-29",
   10 |         "2021-12-30",
   11 |         "2021-12-31"
   12 |       ]
   13 |     }
   14 |   ],
   15 |   "working_hours": [
   16 |     8,
   17 |     17
   18 |   ]
   19 | }
detected non-strict mode (no constraints on year frame from config)
effective configuration:
- given 3 holidays within [2021-12-29, 2021-12-31]:
  + 2021-12-29
  + 2021-12-30
  + 2021-12-31
- working hours:
  + [8, 17] (from configuration)
evaluation:
- Day (2022-10-23) is not a holiday
- Day is weekend.

The new day option to explain any valid date working day status (default non-strict mode):

❯ arbejdstimer explain --day 2345-11-13
read valid configuration from (/some/user/.arbejdstimer.json)
consider 32 holidays:
- Day (2345-11-13) is not a holiday
- Day (2345-11-13) is not a weekend
- At this hour (14) is work time

Better call cal? ... looks correct (13th of November 2345 is a Tuesday):

❯ cal 11 2345
   November 2345
Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa
             1  2  3
 4  5  6  7  8  9 10
11 12 13 14 15 16 17
18 19 20 21 22 23 24
25 26 27 28 29 30

Trying the same working day query with strict mode enabled (and assuming no eternal configuration present):

❯ arbejdstimer explain --day 2345-11-13 --strict
read valid configuration from (/some/user/.arbejdstimer.json)
consider 32 holidays:
detected strict mode (queries outside of year frame from config will fail)
- Day is not within year range of configuration

Still doubts on how the evaluation went? Try the verbose option:

❯ python -m arbejdstimer explain --day 2345-11-13 --strict --verbose
read valid configuration from (/some/user/.arbejdstimer.json)
configuration has 76 lines of (indented) JSON content:
