pomodoro

This crate offers you a functional terminal based pomodoro clock.

Dependencies

This application works on Linux and OSX, but not Windows (yet). On linux make sure that you have libdbus-1 installed - this is an essentialy dependency so that pomodoro can integrate with the linux notification system.

Installation

This clock requires being built with nightly because of an experimental feature I used to keep the clock in sync and never fluctuating by more than 1ms. You can install the application with this command:

$ cargo +nightly install pomodoro

Note: On OSX you don't need to install anything extra. Just use the above terminal command to install the binary crate with nightly

Using pomodoro

To use, simply run it. By default it will give you a work time of 25 minutes, short break of 5 minutes and a long break of 20 minutes.

$ pomodoro

You can pass it terminal flags to customize the times. -w flag will set the work time, -s will set the short break time, and -l will set the long break time. Here's an example that sets up a custom pomodoro with 30 minute work time, 10 minute short break and 25 minute long break:

$ pomodoro -w 30 -s 10 -l 25

All of the controls for starting, quitting or resetting a pomodoro are displayed by the pomodoro menu on launch. s will start your next pomodoro. q will take you back to the menu if you are in a pomodoro, or quit if you are at the menu. r will reset the current pomodoro (back to the head of the work cycle and immediately begin countdown).

Commands are listened for in an asynchronous and non-blocking fashion.

Enjoy!
