NAME

Health::BladderDiary::GenChart - Create bladder diary table from entries

VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of Health::BladderDiary::GenChart (from Perl distribution Health-BladderDiary-GenChart), released on 2020-12-11.

SYNOPSIS

Your bladder entries e.g. in `bd-entry1.txt` (I usually write in Org document):

 0730 drink: 300ml type=water

 0718 urinate: 250ml

 0758 urinate: 100ml

 0915 drink 300ml

 1230 drink: 600ml, note=thirsty

 1245 urinate: 200ml

From the command-line (I usually run the script from inside Emacs):

 % gen-bladder-diary-table-from-entries < bd-entry1.txt
 | time     | intake type | itime | ivol (ml) | ivol cum | icomment | urination time | uvol (ml) | uvol cum | urgency (0-3) | ucolor (0-3) | ucomment |

Produce CSV instead:

 % gen-bladder-diary-table-from-entries --format csv < bd-entry1.txt > bd-entry1.csv

DESCRIPTION

This module can be used to visualize bladder diary entries (which is more comfortable to type in) into table form (which is more comfortable to look at).

Diary entries

The input to the module is bladder diary entries in the form of text. The entries should be written in paragraphs, chronologically, each separated by a blank line. If there is no blank line, then entries are assumed to be written in single lines.

The format of an entry is:

 <TIME> ("-" <TIME2>)? WS EVENT (":")? WS EXTRA

It is designed to be easy to write. Time can be written as hh:mm or just hhmm in 24h format.

Event can be one of drink (or d for short), eat, urinate (or u or urin for short), poop, or comment (or c for short).

Extra is a free-form text, but you can use word=text syntax to write key-value pairs. Some recognized keys are: vol, comment, type, urgency, color.

Some other information are scraped for writing convenience:

 /\b(\d+)ml\b/          for volume
 /\bv(\d+)\b/           for volume
 /\bu([0-9]|10)\b/      for urgency (1-10)
 /\bc([0-6])\b/         for clear to dark orange color (0=clear, 1=light yellow, 2=yellow, 3=dark yellow, 4=amber, 5=brown, 6=red)

Example drink entry (all are equivalent):

 07:30 drink: vol=300ml
 0730 drink 300ml
 0730 d 300ml

Example urinate entry (all are equivalent):

 07:45 urinate: vol=200ml urgency=4 color=light yellow comment=at home
 0745 urin 200ml urgency=4 color=light yellow comment=at home
 0745 u 200ml u4 c1 comment=at home

Urination entries

A urination entry is an entry with event urination (can be written as just u or urin). At least volume is required, can be written in ml unit e.g. 300ml, or using vNUMBER e.g. v300, or using vol key, e.g. vol=300. Example:

 1230 u 200ml

You can also enter color, using color=NAME or c0..c6 for short. These colors from 7-color-in-test-tube urine color chart is recommended: https://www.dreamstime.com/urine-color-chart-test-tubes-medical-vector-illustration-image163017644 or https://stock.adobe.com/images/urine-color-chart-urine-in-test-tubes-medical-vector/299230365:

 0 - clear
 1 - light yellow
 2 - yellow
 3 - dark yellow
 4 - amber
 5 - brown
 6 - red

Example:

 1230 u 200ml c2

You can also enter urgency information using urgency=NUMBER or u0..u10, which is a number from 0 (not urgent at all) to 10 (most urgent). Example:

 1230 u 200ml c2 u4

Drink (fluid intake) entries

A drink (fluid intake) entry is an entry with event drink (can be written as just d). At least volume is required, can be written in ml unit e.g. 300ml, or using vNUMBER e.g. v300, or using vol key, e.g. vol=300. Example:

 1300 d 300ml

You can also input the kind of drink using type=NAME. If type is not specified, water is assumed. Example:

 1300 d 300ml type=coffee

Eat (food intake) entries

The diary can also contain food intake entries. Currently volume or weight of food (or volume of fluid, by percentage of food volume) is not measured or displayed. You can put comments here for more detailed information. The table generator will create a row for each food intake, but will just display the time, type ("food"), and comment columns.
