# Asymptome CLI tracker to prioritize your limited time by ELO ranking media. ## Initial Ideas - [ ] Mark books read/unread/in-progress. - [ ] Show top 10 / bottom 10. Show only in-progress or unread. - [ ] Rank only in-progress or unread. - [ ] Track books by title, author, and series. Default is to recognize "by" or "(series)" and automatically sort into relevant fields. - [ ] But also almost nothing is actually *needed*. - [x] Store progress as a numerical value? (Unread = 0, read = 1, in-progress in-between? Too easy to forget how it works?) - [x] Store pages as an option, - [ ] allow a weighted priority based on remaining percentage or whatever. - [ ] Store items as an array instead of object, because that makes the JSON output more consistent -> smaller JSON commit differences. ## data structure of an item ```json { title = "Title", author = "Author", series = "Series", pages = 100, priority = 0, progress = 0.5, } ``` - `title`, `author`, `series`, and `pages` are optional. - At least one of `title`, `author`, or `series` must be defined. - `priority` is the ELO ranking, initializing to `0`. - `progress` represents read/unread/in-progress status. `0` is unread, `1` is read, and anything in-between in a percentage of progress. ## the name A combination of asymptote - because you will die before you finish your reading list, always getting closer but never arriving - and tome.
