ChartMaker

# ChartMaker A data toolkit for chart-related data logging and export. Record, transform, query, and export data entries — all from the command line, all stored locally. ## Commands | Command | What it does | |---------|-------------| | `chartmaker ingest <input>` | Log a new ingest entry (no args = show recent entries) | | `chartmaker transform <input>` | Log a transform entry | | `chartmaker query <input>` | Log a query entry | | `chartmaker filter <input>` | Log a filter entry | | `chartmaker aggregate <input>` | Log an aggregate entry | | `chartmaker visualize <input>` | Log a visualize entry | | `chartmaker export <input>` | Log an export entry (see also export with format below) | | `chartmaker sample <input>` | Log a sample entry | | `chartmaker schema <input>` | Log a schema entry | | `chartmaker validate <input>` | Log a validate entry | | `chartmaker pipeline <input>` | Log a pipeline entry | | `chartmaker profile <input>` | Log a profile entry | | `chartmaker stats` | Show summary statistics across all log files | | `chartmaker export <fmt>` | Export all data to json, csv, or txt format | | `chartmaker search <term>` | Search all entries for a term (case-insensitive) | | `chartmaker recent` | Show the 20 most recent activity log entries | | `chartmaker status` | Health check — version, entry count, disk usage | | `chartmaker help` | Show usage and available commands | | `chartmaker version` | Print version string | Each logging command (ingest, transform, query, etc.) accepts free-form text. Called without arguments, it shows the 20 most recent entries for that category. ## Data Storage All data is stored locally in `~/.local/share/chartmaker/`. Each command category writes to its own `.log` file, and all actions are recorded in `history.log` with timestamps. ## Requirements - Bash 4+ ## When to Use - Logging chart and visualization data points from the command line - Tracking data transformations and schema changes over time - Exporting accumulated entries to JSON, CSV, or plain text for reports - Searching across all logged entries to find specific visualization data - Checking health and statistics of your local chart data store ## Examples ```bash # Log visualization data chartmaker ingest "Monthly revenue: Jan=10k Feb=12k Mar=15k" # Transform and record a data step chartmaker transform "Normalized Q1 values to percentage scale" # Search across all logs chartmaker search "revenue" # Export everything to CSV chartmaker export csv # View recent activity chartmaker recent ``` Powered by BytesAgain | bytesagain.com | hello@bytesagain.com
