**You need to close the application manualy before you shutdown your PC. Otherwise the last running project is not saved to database.**

# Install
Download the .jar and .bat file and execute the .bat (see [releases](https://github.com/doubleSlashde/KeepTime/releases)). The start may take up to one minute. You should put the .jar in an extra folder as a *logs* and a *db* folder will be created next to it.\
It is recommended to run the application at windows start so you do not forget to track your time. To do this follow these steps:
* Copy the keeptime.bat file from this repo next to the *.jar*. Adapt the path inside the *keeptime.bat* to the name of the *.jar* file (if needed). Try starting the application by executing the *keeptime.bat* file. Close the app
* Download keeptime.bat and keeptime-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT-bin.zip (see [releases](https://github.com/doubleSlashde/KeepTime/releases))
* Extract the downloaded .zip
* Copy the downloaded keeptime.bat file next to the *.jar*. Adapt the path inside the *keeptime.bat* to the name of the *.jar* file (if needed). Try starting the application by executing the *keeptime.bat* file. The start may take up to one minute.

It is recommended to run the application at computer start so you do not forget to track your time. For autostart also execute the following steps (for windows)
* Open the autostart folder: Press *Windows+R*, execute *shell:startup*
* Create a shortcut to the *.bat* in the autostart folder

You should put the .jar in an extra folder as a *logs* and a *db* folder will be created next to it.\

**migrate from old version**

If you have a folder *db* next to the old .jar, the folder has to be next to the new .jar as well. The folder contains your tracked times.\
If you used this application before with a *config.xml* you can import your old projects in the settings dialog. Place your config.xml next to the jar and press "parse config.xml". Otherwise no steps are needed.
