Below is a sample of how a configfile looks.You can pass more than one record through a config file. The below sample consist of two set of records. The code will iterate through each of the record anddownload images based on arguments passed... code:: json{"Arguments":{"known_images_path": "/users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/images","download_path": "/users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/downloads","download_format": "json"}}Examples========- If you are calling this library from another python file, below is the sample code.. code-block:: pythonfrom time_sheet import time_sheet   #importing the libraryresponse = time_sheet.timesheet()   #class instantiationarguments = {"known_images_path": "/users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/images","download_path":"/users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/timesheet/downloads","download_format":"json"}   #creating list of argumentsresponse.capture(arguments)   #passing the arguments to the function- If you are passing arguments from a config file, simply pass the config_file argument with name of your JSON file.. code-block:: bash$ timesheet -cf example.json- Simple example of using arguments.. code-block:: bash$ timesheet --known_images_path /users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/images --download_path /users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/downloads --download_format json-  To use the short hand command.. code-block:: bash$ timesheet --kip /users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/images --dp /users/NoSkillGuy/mysites/time_sheet/downloads --df json--------------Troubleshooting===============**## timesheet: command not found**While using the above commands, if you get ``Error: -bash: timesheet: command not found`` then you have to set the correct path variable.To get the details of the repo, run the following command:.. code-block:: bash$ pip show -f time_sheetyou will get the result like this:.. code-block:: bashLocation: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packagesFiles:../../../bin/timesheettogether they make: ``/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin`` which you need add it to the path:.. code-block:: bash$ export PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin"**## [Errno 13] Permission denied creating directory 'downloads'**When you run the command, it downloads the images in the current directory (the directory from where you are running the command). If you get permission denied error for creating the `downloads directory`, then move to a directory in which you have the write permission and then run the command again.**## Permission denied while installing the library**On MAC and Linux, when you get permission denied when installing the library using pip, try doing a user install... code-block:: bash$ pip install time_sheet --userYou can also run pip install as a superuser with ``sudo pip install time_sheet`` but it is not generally a good idea because it can cause issues with your system-level packages.Contribute==========Anyone is welcomed to contribute to this script.If you would like to make a change, open a pull request.For issues and discussion visit the`Issue Tracker <https://github.com/NoSkillGuy/time_sheet/issues>`__.In Development==============If this project gets 10 Stars, then i will work on the following1. Implementing a command line utility for taking a snapshot so that one can easily add his/her picture before trying out `timesheet`2. Documentation3. Examples4. Tests
