NAME
       timew-import - import time-tracking data	from files

SYNOPSIS
       timew import [<file>...]

DESCRIPTION
       Import tracked time from	file. If no files are specified, the command
       will read from standard input.

       The data	to import has to be in JSON format, as exported	by
       timew-export(1),	i.e. a single array with interval objects.

       When importing, the intervals are checked for overlaps with existing
       intervals. If an	overlap	is found, the import will abort	at the first
       overlap and no more intervals are imported, unless the :adjust hint is
       specified.

       In general, it is recommended to	create a backup	of your	data before
       importing.

HINTS
       :adjust
	   When	given, the imported interval will overwrite any	existing
	   intervals that it overlaps with.

EXAMPLES
       Import intervals	from a file

	   Import intervals from a single file:

	       timew import intervals.json

	   Any file path that does not start with a / is interpreted as
	   relative to the current working directory.

       Import intervals	from multiple files

	   One can also	use shell wildcards and	absolute paths:

	       timew import /path/to/intervals/*.json

       Import intervals	from standard input

	   Import intervals from stdin:

	       timew export | ssh <server> 'timew import'

	   This	is especially useful for synchronizing intervals between
	   different machines.
