Add expected/finished number of Pomodoros by weekday #5

Problem: How do we know if Pomodoro was finished?

dominikmayer commented 13 years ago

One way would be to define a keybinding to delete a session file. So every not deleted session file would count as a finished Pomodoro.

dattanchu commented 13 years ago

This would grow the number of files in the same directory to be quite big in a short amount of time. To counter this we should put session files into sub folders based on month, day. e.g. Session files for today would be in the folder

pomodoro_folder/5/29/

This should be suffice for now.

I think we don't even need this. Have a look at the Pomodoro Calendar I made: http://likeswater.com/pomodoro-calendar-2011. I was thinking about adding a simple counter to Xmobar. During the week I want to do at least eight Pomodoros per day. So while I'm doing the third one Xmobar could show something like:

P XXX·· 10 min [2/8]

or

P XXX·· 10 min [xx __]

On a Saturday it would change to:

P XXX·· 10 min [2/4] P XXX·· 10 min [xx__]

This could be stored in a simple configuration file. I'm looking into ConfigParser (http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/configparser.html). That would also be a good way to store the configuration in some kind of .pymodororc.

ini-style like that supported by ConfigParser looks good to me
