Lightningfocus is a command line Pomodoro timer written in Rust. It is intended for rotating between a small number of tasks but works just as well as a classic Pomodoro timer.
As Lightningfocus is in the early stages of development, the best way to install
it is to clone the repository and install with cargo, like so:
$ git clone https://github.com/gevhaz/Lightningfocus
$ cargo installYou will need to have the system package libnotify installed (or your
distribution's equivalent).
The following commands assume that Lightningfocus is installed, but you can run
any of them by prepening cargo run to them when the root of the repository is
your current working directory.
You can (not yet) start a Pomodoro session with the default intervals like such:
$ focusThe default intervals are:
| Interval type | Length in minutes |
|---|---|
| Work | 10 |
| Short break | 2 |
| Long break | 5 |
Once you've run the command, a Work interval starts, and you are shown a desktop notification and a message in your terminal. You are notified in the same way when it is time for breaks or to work again.
- Allow setting duration for work, short break, and long break intervals via command line.
- Show current interval type and name in standard output.
- Show time passed for current interval in standard output.
- Show notifications when switching between work and breaks.
- Allow interactive specification of tasks. The user should be able to enter tasks one-by-one which will then be looped through as work intervals.
- It should be possible to use the app as a Pomodoro timer without naming any tasks.
- Allow setting default intervals in a configuration file.
