[FEATURE] Track time spent on non-scheduled task

Open aurelienpierre opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

The current logic of the plugin is to map a time slot with a task, so you are to switch tasks depending on time of day.

I'm working in R&D on tasks that need to be completed ASAP but it's usually hard to predict how much time they will need and certainly not desirable to hop on between tasks.

I would like to be able to declare tasks without time schedule, for example with a dummy time marker XX:XX like:

- [ ] XX:XX Debug issue #0000

then start a timer on the task to record the time it took until completion. Such tasks could spread over several days.

Then, possibly, have a table of all individual tasks with aggregated time spent over all days.

If the principle is accepted, I can try to work on that myself.

I think this is a good idea. The question would be how this would be visually displaye in the timeline. Furthermore, I think that tasks could be scheduled a specific start time, but no end time in particular (which can be updated once the item is checked off).

The feature described here is a time tracker like Toggl. Closing this as a duplicate of #330.
