dLine

dLine is an innovative command-line tool designed to seamlessly present crucial data in the form of a calendar right in your terminal. This versatile application caters directly to developers, making event management and schedule navigation efficient and straightforward. With dLine, you can easily monitor important dates, add events through user-friendly APIs, and calculate timespans for various event types—all without leaving the terminal.

Key Features

Dynamic View

Execute dline without arguments to display the events scheduled for the current month instantly. This dynamic view highlights past dates in blue and color-codes events for quick identification, complemented by intuitive icons. You can also hide specific categories to create a cleaner visual, allowing you to stay focused on what matters most. Events are organized by week, making it easy to navigate through your commitments.

Static View

For those who prefer a straightforward approach, run dline -m yyyy/mm to switch to Static View. This mode provides a monthly calendar without the dynamic elements, ensuring a smooth visual experience of the entire month’s events—perfect for users who just need a traditional calendar view.

Event Calculator View

Need to quickly count the days between events? Use dline -w with your specified date range to calculate workdays and weekends effortlessly. This functionality is particularly beneficial for freelancers calculating their proposals based on distinct workdays.

Administration and File Management

Start managing your calendar data with a simple command: dline -b. This command opens the door to a complete suite of CRUD operations, allowing you to create, read, update, and delete events efficiently. Special features such as API imports and the management of overdue deadlines enable you to maintain an organized schedule while keeping track of public holidays and other critical dates worldwide.
