Standup

I'm terrible at Standups.

I never remember what I did the day before, or even worse, what I was doing the week before.

So I threw something together to organise what I do daily, and what I need to recap on during my morning meetings.

Commands

standup fix the login bug   -> log a new item
standup                     -> see today's list, with numbers
standup d 2                 -> mark item 2 as done
standup note fixed a typo   -> log something you already did
standup drop 2              -> give up on item 2
standup report              -> what to say at the morning meeting
standup log 14              -> the last 14 days
standup edit                -> open the log in your editor

Everything lives in one markdown file, ~/worklog.md, so it stays readable without me. Point WORKLOG somewhere else if you'd rather.

Getting it

There's nothing to install. Drop the script somewhere on your PATH:

ln -s "$PWD/bin/standup" ~/.local/bin/standup

Tests

ruby test/standup_test.rb

They run the real script against a throwaway worklog, so they can't touch yours.
