log VS report

Open ezbik opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

Here is my vision of log vs report functionality.

log pros:

  • detailed output (day, start & stop time)
  • frames IDs
  • chronological order

log contras:

  • too wide output (extra newlines, extra formatting)
  • no total time!
  • chronological order is reversed (why!?)

report pros:

  • total time
  • tiny output

report contras:

  • no details for a specific entry: date, frame id, start / stop time
  • enties are sorted in alphabetical order, per entries titles

None suits my needs so I had to modify log output with a wrapper https://github.com/ezbik/scripts/blob/master/watson/watson_log.py

  • added total time
  • made output more compressed

so after passing vanilla watson log through my wrapper, it looks like this.

2019-02-27, from 16:03 to 16:13, spent 0:10:02 on [ 0f070cbf @ redirect]
2019-03-21, from 20:11 to 20:31, spent 0:20:05 on [ 4b7edd8d @ parse service autorestart]
2019-04-04, from 16:11 to 16:31, spent 0:20:07 on [ 5f4026c4 @ redirect contact-us]
TOTAL 0:50:14

Hi @ezbik ! Thanks for the report. What do you think about adding a --oneline option to the Watson log command? If you think it's an interesting idea, are you willing to make a PR that implements it?

I second having a reverse flag for the log option. I just recently found out about the no pager flag, and I think it'd be nice to be able to see the most recent day at the bottom.

@Kevin-Mok there is also issue #271 where the order matter is discussed, but nobody has started to work on it yet.

Updated my wrapper. It now includes customer field.

As for the log order, currently there is --reverse flag, which works as I want it in regards to dates (the latest date at the top, just like git log), however, it does not reverse the session order (regardless of --reverse/--no-reverse, it is always printed out from oldest to latest, while I’d prefer it to be same as the date order), which is a bit frustrating and hard to look for what I want.

Session order example

That said, a line per session log format is a nice addition. :+1:
