Timesheet analysis for Work from Home percentage

Simple Docker container that outputs the Work From Home percentage for each timesheet pdf in a folder.

How to use it

Build Docker image

docker build -t timesheet:latest .

Run Docker container

Assuming you're on a Windows machine and are in the folder that contains your timesheet pdfs:

docker run -v ${pwd}:/data timesheet

Debugging

If the output is not what you expect, run the included commands one by one.

You need pdftotext, which you can install on Linux with

apt-get install poppler-utils

and MacOS with

brew install poppler

Option 1

Run the file input.pdf through pdftotext and write the result to output.txt

pdftotext -layout input.pdf output.txt

Pipe output.txt through the python script

cat output.txt | python process_timesheet.py

Option 2

Output pdftotext to stdout and pipe that directly through the Python script:

pdftotext -layout input.pdf - | python process_timesheet.py
