Beeminder

I have a script that uses launchctl to automatically updates beeminder every day. It requires some manual setup:

1. Set up a pyenv virtualenv:

    pyn things3-api
    pip install things3-api
    pip install argcomplete
   

2. Set up a pyenv virtualenv for goals

    git clone [email protected]:pokey/goals.git
    cd goals
    pyn goals
    pip install -e .
   

3. Set up an envdir in ~/envs/beeminder containing BEEMINDER_AUTH_TOKEN and BEEMINDER_USER from here.

4. Create something like the following in ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.pokeyrule.update-tasks-beeminder.plist:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">

          </dict>
        </array>
    </dict>
    </plist>
