Installing

From Package

Thanks to the community, there are binary packages available here.

Building Timewarrior

Building Timewarrior yourself requires

• git
• cmake
• make
• C++ compiler with full C++14 support, currently gcc 6.1+ or clang 3.4+
• Python 3 (for running the testsuite)
• Asciidoctor (for creating documentation)

There are two ways to retrieve the Timewarrior sources:

• Clone the repository from Github,

  git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/timewarrior
  cd timewarrior
  

• Or download the tarball with curl,

  curl -O https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/timewarrior/releases/download/v1.4.3/timew-1.4.3.tar.gz
  

  and expand the tarball

  tar xzf timew-1.4.3.tar.gz
  cd timew-1.4.3
  

Build Timewarrior, optionally run the test suite, and install it.

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release
make
[make test]
sudo make install

This copies files into the right place (default under /usr/local), and installs man pages.

Add the optional parameter -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/your/install/location to the cmake command if you want to install Timewarrior at a location other than /usr/local. The make install command may not require sudo depending on your choice of install location.
