tickbin is a simple time tracking application with an emphasis on minimizing disruption to the user. It accomplishes this by:
tickbin emphasizes user data ownership:
Local database path will default to ~/.tickbin. If you would like to specify a custom location, add the following to ~/.tickbinrc:
local=~/custom/path
If you're developing you can add a .tickbinrc file to your development directory.
To sync with a remote database, add the following to ~/.tickbinrc:
remote=http://user:pass@host:port/dbname
Run tick sync in order to sync your database with your remote server.
