When you run theaglcommand it assumes that you are in
a directory where you want to store your agile project management
files.Theagltool comes with built-in Git integration. To enable
this simply initialise the project directory as a git repository.gitinitThe step above is optional, but highly recommended. Git is great.Now let’s illustrate how to add a task to our agile project.
The command below creates a task with the title"Learn how to use agl cmd line"of size 3. The available
story point sizes are 1, 3, 5 and 8.agladd"Learn how to use agl cmd line"3This will create abacklogdirectory and place a file namedlearn-how-to-use-agl-cmd-line.ymlfile in it. It will also
create the directoriescurrent/{todo,done}.To move the task to the current sprint.aglmvbacklog/learn-how-to-use-agl-cmd-line.ymlcurrent/todoTo mark the task as done.aglmvcurrent/todo/learn-how-to-use-agl-cmd-line.ymlcurrent/doneTo add a task to the current “todo” list one can use the-cargument
(mnemonic current).agladd-c"Email friends about jicagile"1To list the content of the backlog.agllistbacklog/Thetodoanddonedirectories have aliases so you do not need to
specify the full path to list their content.agllisttodoagllistdoneYou can edit tasks using your favorite text editor or you can use theagl editcommand. For example the command below increases the number
of story points from one to five.agleditcurrent/todo/email-friends-about-jicagile.yml--storypoints=5You can add themes to your project.aglthemeaddadmin"Emails, forms, meetings, etc"agleditcurrent/todo/email-friends-about-jicagile.yml--theme=adminThemes are stored in a.themes.ymlfile.It is also possible to add team members to your project.aglteammemberaddTOTjelvarOlssonaglteammemberaddMHMatthewHartleyTeam members  are stored in a.team.ymlfile.You can then associate a task with a primary contact.agladd"Write report"8-pMH-eadminIn the above-pis the short hand for--primary-contactand-eis short hand for--theme.Note that theagltool simply creates text files. It can be therefore be
used together withgit. In fact all of the commands above automatically
have Git integration built-in. It can be very satisfying to have the agile
project management files under version control on GitHub.Once you have had your sprint review meeting and all the relevant
files have been moved to thecurrent/donedirectory create a
directory namedpast_sprints.mkdirpast_sprintsThen move and rename thecurrent/donedirectory there with
todays date using a year-month-day scheme.aglmvcurrent/todopast_sprints/2016-06-19Release notes0.4.0Added Git integrationAddedagl mvcommandFixed defect where adding to an empty config file caused and iteration error0.3.0Added ability to add and remove team members from the command lineUpdated the format of the output from theagl listcommand0.2.0Refactored and redesigned the command line interfaceImproved test coverageAdded color to list outputAdded ability to associate a task with a theme
