     13 this project seeks to simplify the creation and maintenance of engineering work logs.
     14 
     15 Entries of each individual log has core text content. Additionally, every entry may have any number of file attachments associated with it.

     46 
     47 .TP
     48 .BI -l log_id
     49 Log id to operate on. May be the full uuid or the alias defined at creation time.
     50 
     51 .TP
     52 .BI -c config_file
     53 Load configuration from file.
     54

     60 
     61 .SS Options for attach
     62 
     63 .TP
     64 .BI -e entry_id
     65 uuid of entry to attach file to.
     66 
     67 .SS Options for create
     68 
     69 .TP
     70 .BI --alias alias_id
     71 Create log id alias that may be used as argument to \fB-l\fP for future operations.
     72 
     73 
     74 .SS Options for add and entry
     75 
     76 .TP
     77 .BI -s subject
     78 Entry subject.
     79 
     80 .TP
     81 .BI --task-id id
     82 Associate the log entry with the given taskwarrior numeric id. This is a quasi-magical instruction which will resolve to the actual taskwarrior uuid.
     83 
     84 .TP
     85 .BI --task-uuid uuid
     86 Associate the log entry with the given taskwarrior numeric uuid.
     87 
     88 
     89 .SH ATTACHMENTS
     90 
     91 Both \fBfeedwarrior add\fP and \fBfeedwarrior entry\fP will return the created entry id.
     92 
     93 This id can be used further with the \fB-e\fP flag for attachments.
     94 
     95 Any file in any format may be an attachment. The feedwarrior tool imposes little if no restriction on what data qualifies as valid attachment data.
     96 
     97 
     98 .SH INTERACTIVE ENTRIES
     99 
    100 The \fBfeedwarrior add\fP command enables interactive definition of textual update entry contents.
    101 
    102 It will open an editor (at the moment hardcoded to \fBvim\fP) to receive the contents.
    103 
    104 
    105 .SH DATA STORE
    106 
    107 Log entries are stored as email-like MIME Multipart messages, wrapped in a json metadata structure.
    108 
    109 Only the default, simple filesystem structure is currently available as storage backend.
    110 
    111 
    112 .SH EXAMPLE

    121 # attach file to entry
    122 feedwarrior attach -e $ENTRY <attachment_file>
    123 
    124 ¤ interactively add log entry contents
    125 entry=`feedwarrior -l myfeed add -s "second update" 
    126
