What did I do is a command line tool for preparing and recording your daily SCRUM stand-ups.
I want to recall the work I've done during my previous work day during daily stand-up meetings.
I also wanted to have ability to see linear record of my stand-ups.
wdid
is written in Javascript for NodeJS environments. It should be
installed globally so it's accessible as an executable. The required
version of NodeJS is at least v18.
The entries are stored in sqlite database file.
npm i -g wdid
- Clone this repository
- CD into the cloned folder
npm link
TBD
wdid init
is required before using the tool. It sets you up with
configuration file and database file.
You can re-run this command anytime. It will also detect any existing configuration and database file, so you can move these between machines and it should work fine.
Run wdid --help
to get hints or append --help
flag to any command
wdid
offers.
The tool operates under certain assumptions and is very opinionated. It has two modes of operation that map to type of stand-up entry:
- stand-up (command:
wdid new
) - reminder (command:
wdid remind
)
You should record your stand-up at the beginning of your work day. That way you can share it or report it during stand-up meeting.
Reminder should be recorded at the end of your work day. The reminder helps you with stand-up which happens next day as it helps you recall the work you did during the work day.
You can re-run each command to edit the entries.
Run wdid log
to get ordered list of all stand-ups. wdid log --last
will
show the latest stand-up.
You can also get list of reminders by including -r
flag. See wdid log --help
for more options.
