# Asymptome
|
|
CLI tracker to prioritize your limited time by ELO ranking media.
|
|
|
|
## Initial Ideas
|
|
- [ ] Mark books read/unread/in-progress.
|
|
- [x] 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.
|
|
- [x] 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.
|
|
- [x] Store items as an array instead of object, because that makes the JSON output more consistent -> smaller JSON commit differences.

## Contributions

|
|
This repo is hosted at https://gitea.tangentfox.com/tangent/Asymtome and
|
|
force-pushed to https://github.com/TangentFoxy/Asymtome when commits are made.
|
|
I accept pull requests and issues, but management of the code is handled there.
|
|
|
|
Licensing? I don't care. Do whatever you want. IP rights are stupid.

## Book Data Structure
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"title": "Title",
|
|
"author": "Author",
|
|
"series": "Series",
|
|
"genre": "Fiction",
|
|
"pages": 100,
|
|
"priority": 0,
|
|
"progress": 0.5,
|
|
"hidden": true
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `title`, `author`, `series`, `pages`, `genre`, and `hidden` are optional.
|
|
- At least one of `title`, `author`, `series`, or `genre` 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.
|
|
- `hidden` is undefined or `true` to hide a book from ALL of the interface
|
|
without deleting its data.
|
|
|
|
Despite the script supporting otherwise, I highly recommend only using this for
|
|
*specific book titles*. In my experience, using entries representing multiple
|
|
books makes it more difficult to prioritize and use.

## Why "Asymptome" ?
|
|
A combination of asymptote - because you will die before you finish your reading
|
|
list, always getting closer but never arriving - and tome.
|
|
|
|
It's also a-symptom of my neuroses. :D
