-----------
Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Install **trackmac** using pip:
.. code:: bash
$ pip install trackmac
or
.. code:: bash
$ git clone https://github.com/MacLeek/trackmac && cd trackmac && python setup.py install
Note:
If you are using virtual environment, you should use `$VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/tm`
instead of `tm` or simply add it to your environment PATH.
Usage
~~~~~
First, create sqlite database and add .plist to keep trackmac run at startup
.. code:: bash
$ tm setup
With this command, a dbfile will be created under ~/Library/Application Support/com.macleek.github.trackmac/
