## Todo {#sec:modules:todo}
|
||||
|
||||
The Todo module implements `taskwarrior` functionality by integrating
|
||||
taskwarrior itself into imag.
|
||||
|
||||
Each taskwarrior task s referenced from imag and represented as imag entry, thus
|
||||
making it linkable by other imag entries.
|
||||
|
||||
The "todo" module implements a task manager.

## libimagtodo
|
||||
|
||||
The library for the todo module.
|
||||
The library for the todo module which provides functionality to
|
||||
implement/implements a todomanager in imag.
|
||||
|
||||
Whether this wraps `taskwarrior` or implements a todo tracking mechanism in imag
|
||||
itself is to be defined. Probably the latter.
|
||||
### Implementation details
|
||||
|
||||
One todo entry is stored as one imag entry. The ID of the imag entry is generated by
|
||||
appending a unique ID (UUID) to "todo/".
|
||||
|
||||
The unique ID identifies the todo entry.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Stored data
|
||||
|
||||
A todo entry stores the following information:
|
||||
|
||||
* The (UU)ID of the todo entry
|
||||
* A status of the todo entry. Valid values are: "deleted", "done", "pending"
|
||||
* A "scheduled" date/datetime, can also yield an iterator
|
||||
* An optional "hidden" value, which specifies a date in the future where this
|
||||
todo entry should show up. Relative (eg. "-5days"),
|
||||
to the "scheduled" date/datetime
|
||||
* An optional "due" date/datetime, relative to the "scheduled" time
|
||||
* A list of dependencies of the entry
|
||||
* A "importance"-level, config file defined (strings in an array, index used for
|
||||
ranking them)
|
||||
* User defined value (a map of key-value string pairs)
|
||||
|
||||
The description of the todo entry is stored as plain text.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Data not stored
|
||||
|
||||
Some data is explicitely _not_ stored by the library because there are other
|
||||
libraries fullfilling that purpose. These are:
|
||||
|
||||
* Tags, which can be done with libimagentrytag
|
||||
* Category, which can be done with libimagentrycategory
|
||||
* Project belonging, which can be done with libimagentrylink (by linking to a
|
||||
project file - note that "project" is a domain not yet implemented by imag)
|
||||
* Annotations, which can be stored with libimagentryannotation
|
||||
|
||||
#### Header format
|
||||
|
||||
The header partial for libimagtodo is as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[todo]
|
||||
uuid = "string"
|
||||
status = "string"
|
||||
scheduled = "<kairos time spec>"
|
||||
hidden = "<kairos time func (optional)>"
|
||||
due = "<kairos time func (optional)>"
|
||||
depends = [ "list of uuids" ]
|
||||
importance = "string"
|
||||
uda = {}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
The provided functionality of this library includes, but is not limited to:
|
||||
|
||||
* Creating new todo entries in the store
|
||||
* Deleting todo entries from the store
|
||||
* get/retrieving todo entries from the store
|
||||
* Turning an entry into a todo entry
|
||||
* Getting todo details from an entry
|
||||
* scheduled, due, waiting date/datetime
|
||||
* priority
|
||||
* UUID
|
||||
* status
|
||||
* An iterator over all dependend todo entries (as `StoreIdIterator`)
|
||||
* Calculating a "urgency" of a todo entry from a formula weighted by configurable factors
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
#### Dependencies between tasks
|
||||
|
||||
Dependencies between todo entries are created by putting the UUID of a dependent todo entry into
|
||||
the `todo.depends` header.
|
||||
This way, a unidirectional link is created. A link (as in `libimagentrylink`) is
|
||||
_also_ created, but this can be turned off explicitely.
|
||||
|
||||
As `libimagentrylink` links are bidirectional, they do not suffice for todo
|
||||
entry dependency creation.
|
||||
|
||||
As todo entries are stored with the Store IDs "todo/<uuid>", creating a
|
||||
`StoreId` from a UUID is trivial.
