A simple Org mode interface to Toggl

This is a (very) simple Emacs and Org mode interface to Toggl, a cloud-based time-tracking service. It is basically done by me for myself, though other people might find it useful.

This project is completely unrelated to org-toggl-py. Due to the limitations of org-toggl (see below), you may decide that org-toggl-py suits your needs better.

Put this into your init.el to get the most of org-toggl. To get the Auth token, go to your profile settings and scroll to the bottom. To get the workspace id, click the down arrow on the top left, select “manage workspaces”, select the workspace and copy the second number from the URL. (A better way would be for the user to set workspace name and get the id in toggl-get-projects. PRs welcome.)

(setq toggl-auth-token "...")
(setq toggl-workspace-id 123456)
(setq org-toggl-inherit-toggl-properties t)
(require 'org-toggl)
(toggl-get-projects)
(org-toggl-integration-mode)

You may say M-x toggl-get-projects to download project info from your account.

If you don’t use Org mode, you may then use M-x toggl-select-default-project to select the project your entries will go to, M-x toggl-start-time-entry, M-x toggl-stop-time-entry and M-x toggl-delete-time-entry to start, stop and delete entries.

If you use Org mode (which is the recommended way to interact with org-toggl), put the point on a heading and say M-x org-toggl-set-project to associate that heading (and its subheadings, if org-toggl-inherit-toggl-properties is non-nil) with a project. Then, if org-toggl-integration-mode minor mode is on, clocking in/out of such a heading will start/stop the respective Toggl entry.

Warning: as of now, org-toggl is very simplistic and has a few limitations. The most serious is that due to asynchronicity of http requests, if you start clocking and then immediately stop/cancel it (before the response to the starting requests comes and is processed), the Toggl entry is not stopped/deleted. (This could be fixed, but I’m not sure whether it’s worth the effort.) Another one is that if you shorten the Org clock (see (info "(org) Resolving idle time")), this does not get reflected in Toggl. Again, PRs welcome.
