AppleScript to stop Harvest Timer
I use Harvest for time tracking.
Also, I use Bunch. Almost all of my bunches start a Harvest timer. I want to stop the current timer when I close the bunch.
This is an excerpt of my Blog bunch.

* ~/Library/Scripts/Harvest.scpt "SAC" "Writing" "Writing post" ~5
!<<#On Close

#[On Close]
* ~/Library/Scripts/Stop\ Harvest.scpt
Unfortunately, Harvest does not integrate with AppleScript. Moreover, they don't have a menu option to stop the current timer. Neither, a Keyboard Shortcut to stop the current timer. You can stop the the timer by click the H
in the menu item but I am not sure I an automate that.
Thus, I resort to browser automation. The following AppleScript:
- Opens Safari
- Creates new tab and navigates to my harvest account.
- Clicks the current timer stop button via Javascript.
set website to "https://softamo.harvestapp.com/time"
set theScript to "document.getElementsByClassName('js-stop-timer')[0].click();"
tell application "Safari"
tell window 1
set current tab to (make new tab with properties {URL:website})
end tell
delay 5
do JavaScript theScript in current tab of first window
end tell
