Moco time booking script

Easily book times in moco via a Terminal UI script. Especially helpful for repeatedly occurring stuff.

Usage

1. Install uv (very nice python wrapper).
2. Fill both moco.yaml and secret.yaml with some activities that you often do.
3. Fill the project list manually, since most of the users won't have permissions to read those via API. This will help you navigate later.
4. Run the script! uv run --script moco.py
5. Press 'q' to quit.

How to get the project and task IDs?

Since most of the time you do not have full access, here is a trick: Create a manual entry in moco and perform this curl request:

curl --silent --request GET \
--url 'https://mycompany.mocoapp.com/api/v1/activities?from=2025-02-28&to=2025-02-28' \
--header 'authorization: Token token={{token}}'

If you are lazy and have jq installed, use this to get the project ID and task ID:

curl --silent --request GET \
--url 'https://mycompany.mocoapp.com/api/v1/activities?from=2025-03-03&to=2025-03-03' \
--header "authorization: Token token=${token}"| jq -r '.[] | "\(.project.id) \(.project.name) \(.task.id) \(.task.name)"'
