If I have multiple tasks to delete and they were all created around the same time, it can become tiresome having to write lots of ids especially when they are sequential.

tb -d 1 2 3 4 5

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to be able to type a command that can delete a range of tasks.

tb -d 1-5

It would also be good if one could specify multiple ranges together with single ids, for example:

tb -d 1-5 7 9-11

Thanks very much for this very useful tool!

Hello there, saw your app on Reddit and immediately though that is has no logo. I have some designer friends that could make one. Happy to help if you would like. Appart from that the an other alternative designing option might be @arasatasaygin and open logos: https://github.com/arasatasaygin/openlogos, but there is a long process for that.
Please reach any time if you have considered my offer so I can contact my friends. Thank you for your time Klaus.

Describe the bug
The checkbox(on/off) do not display properly in windows subsystem for linux(ubuntu). You just see the symol that is used when a character cannot be displayed.

To Reproduce
Install in wsl(window subsystem for linux)
Add task
run tb

Expected behavior
I should see checkbox

I want to see an option in which I could add a comment to a task and keep it all organized.
It would be nice to keep track on tasks that demands more than a few hours to finish.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would have something like `tb 1 --add-comment This task's on hold because of that.

Additional context
A plus would be if it has a feature to list comments enumerated with some option to edit/sort/remove comments.

Sometimes, the items in your Todo are very small, e.g. a shopping list

* bread
* butter
* more bread

In it's current form I'd have to type tb -t @shopping bread, tb -t @shopping butter and tb -t @shopping bread. How about being able to write tb -t @shopping bread|butter|more bread, which could be translated to

* bread
* butter
* more bread

Thanks

The prompt asking to type taskbook --help might have been intended to be tb --help.

~ $ tb

  Type `taskbook --help` to get started! ★

  0% of all tasks complete.
  0 done · 0 pending · 0 notes 

~ $ taskbook --help
-bash: taskbook: command not found

taskbook uses flags for all of the actions it can do:

$ tb --task hello world
$ tb --check 1

These commands do not compose as flags would imply in a CLI, so they should probably just be commands and not flags:

$ tb task hello world
$ tb check 1

This makes it a lot easier to type stuff out, and more coherent with how other CLI apps work.

Describe the bug
I just have installed taskboard on my machine with npm install -g but after the successful installation the command tb was not found. I just use node with nvm, both other globally installed node commandline tools have no problems with that.

I checked the global bin folder where all executable node binaries are installed but no tb binary was there. (It's with nvm under ~/.nvm/versions/node/v10.4.1/bin

I checked

To Reproduce
Just install it with npm -g

Expected behavior

This is a neat app and it clearly solves a useful problem (based on the response).

But the command line is ubiquitous and not all cli users are javascript devs who have / want to have npm installed.

Describe the solution you'd like
Come up with a way to remove the dependency on npm, using either existing transpilation tools to create binaries or via a port(?)

Port is less favorable option in my opinion, but I'm not enough of a JavaScript developer to be aware of options for creating binaries.

Additional context
This would also permit the creation of a lean debian package so those of us on *buntu could just apt-get install taskbook without pulling in dependencies. It further would increase the exposure of this nifty tool.

EDIT: Clearly there are stable options for binary releases. Issue is now whether debian packages are merited / desirable.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would love to be able to edit org-mode files with taskbook.

Additional context
Org-mode is quite extensive, merely a subset of it would already be great!

$ tb -h doesn't launch the help menu.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

$ tb -h should launch the help menu.

Describe the solution you'd like
A command that can be run to clean or clear all checked items. This would simply loop through and delete all checked items.

tb --clear or tb --clean

Additional context
I like to start my work day with a clean to do list. Meaning, there is no checked tasks on the board. Currently, I am accomplishing this by manually deleting all checked tasks
tb -d 113 115 116 117 120 121

But that approach is error prone. It is too easy to type an incorrect id.

By the way, LOVE the tool! Been using it daily since it was posted on HN a few days ago!

Add random thoughts (pieces of information) to a task item.

Describe the solution you'd like

After creating a task it would be nice to add some pieces of information to it in a while. For example
tb --edit 3
will open full task description in your favorite editor (eg. vim). To view complete task`s description
tb --show 3

Taskbook's output becomes unreadable when the terminal background color is identical or similar
to the text color.

Describe the solution you'd like
Being able to change the text color with the taskbook config file would solve the problem and offer some customization.

I use the terminal emulator "Terminator".

Screenshots

Want a ncurses interface to operate on tasks interactively( with vim keyboard shortcuts support) instead of memorizing commands.

Current commands to display tasks:
tb or tb --timeline

With many boards and tasks these options can result in an overwhelmingly large list. We do have the option to find with tb -f but this only matches text in the task and not board names.

It would be nice to have an option to display tasks from a particular board like this:
tb @some_board

resulting in only tasks from that board:

I have some ongoing projects in trello, I want to sync my scope of issues between this local system and trello, so my team can follow my progress.

Describe the solution you'd like
Sync switch that synchronizes the local board with trello.

This would be perfect if I could see and edit the same tasks on my phone.

A way to export this so that it can be imported into a todo.txt compatible app better still would be an app for this application.

Describe the bug
tb -h doesn't work the same as tb --help

To Reproduce
type tb --help and observe the output
type tb -h and observe the output

Expected behavior
Outputs should be the same

Screenshots
none

Additional context
I don't know JavaScript, but if I'm reading the code correctly then there's also a problem with "tb -v" (and I verified that that's true).

Describe the bug
when you check an item that has already been checked the program returns item checked even though it actually becomes unchecked

To Reproduce
$ tb -t foo
$tb -c 1
$tb -c 1

Expected behavior
If I realized that what I had done wasn't actually done I would want to uncheck it so the program should return "# unchecked" if I run --check twice on an item

Right now there's no means of assigning a due date/time to tasks.

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow for setting a due date on tasks and display this alongside them (ideally in a human readable format).

$ tb -t Do something tomorrow due:tomorrow

$ tb -t Do something in 3 days due:3d

$ tb
    My Board [0/4]
      1. ☐  Pay bills (yesterday)  
      2. ☐  Team dinner (tomorrow)
      3. ☐  Approve PR #270 (3 days)

Suppose I have a Board named, "@Test"
and inside that board, I have a few tasks/notes,
i.e.

@Test
    2. [ ] task 1
    3.  *  note 1
    6. [ ] task 2 (though do note that this is non-sequential)

to delete this, from my understanding, I'd need to run the command

tb -d 2 3 6

While this is fine for most boards, I just went to delete a board that had 20+ items, and as you can imagine, it was a little bit tedious making sure I didn't delete the wrong numbered item.

Describe the solution you'd like
Why not instead of having to type

tb -d 2 3 6

I just have to type

tb -d @Test

And remove all the items in that board (including the respective board)

This is a really cool little tool, aside from this small inconvenience, I'm really enjoying just how usable it is!

Terminal colors get disabled when running thru unix watch (at least on a Mac)

It is extremely difficult to read Taskbook's output with my terminal colors

Describe the solution you'd like
Because terminal styling is highly irregular, allowing users to configure the color hexes in the ~/.taskbook.json would be the ideal solution.

Additional context

This is on iTerm 2 Build 3.2.20180723-nightly in ZSH, with theme "af-magic"

If we can have a feature to export a report of our tasks as pdf then it would be great, maybe automated generated reports on daily basis or weekly basis as a reference of what we did in an entire day or week. Coz data stored by taskbook is fragile we can delete it anytime, but PDF report are not.

May be PDFKit would be something useful.

Feel free to share your thoughts.

This looks great! I like that the tasks are kept private, but I can also see a use case for teams wanting to collaborate.

How contained is the data kept on disk? Would it be easy to provide commands to sync up the data remotely via private git repos?

Running tb throws an exception and quits:

The current functionality allows the user to create, close, adit, delete and mark tasks as done, but it doesn't provide a time tracking feature. It would be nice to add a Pomodoro style timer for added focus.

Describe the solution you'd like
Offer another option to start a task with a pomodoro timer. Once the time is up, the console will let the user know that it is done, and if the task should be crossed off, or if they need more time.

Additional context
I understand that taskbook is meant to be simple and minimalistic, but this feature would be nice to have.

The edit option says the flag is -t but it's actually -e.

Taskbook stores its metadata under ~/.taskbook/, e.g.

• ~/.taskbook/.archive
• ~/.taskbook/.storage

If configure my taskbook config to point to say, /Users/me/google drive/taskbook, it will create the .archive and .storage folders in there.

As they are hidden, the google drive client won't sync them

Describe the solution you'd like

Under the taskbook directory, all data within should not be hidden

e.g.

/Users/me/google_drive/taskbook/archive
/Users/me/google_drive/taskbook/storage

At first , tb is a good tool for record my tasks. but I want to get the special tasks after the special date. Example:

if I type this:

tb --list done --after 20180804

then, I get all of the tasks which attr is done and item._timestamp is after 2018-08-04.

Have you given any thoughts to allowing additional storage providers? I've been wanting to build a similar CLI task management tool, backed by GitLab issues using the API. But now I'm thinking...what if we expand taskbook to allow for N number of storage providers.

Describe the solution you'd like
Decouple storage from the file system, allowing anyone to write a shim between the taskbook data model and an external storage provider (think GitLab, GitHub issues or Trello/JIRA or S3, etc.)

Describe the bug
Using ~ to represent my home directory in the taskbookDirectory configuration option doesn't work.

To Reproduce

• Set taskbookDirectory to a path like /Users/my_username/Dropbox/Taskbook
• Run tb, and observe that Taskbook works as expected
• Set taskbookDirectory to a path like ~/Dropbox/Taskbook
• Run tb, and observe that Taskbook says: Custom app directory was not found on your system: ~/Dropbox/Taskbook

Expected behavior
The Taskbook directory, when using a tilde, should expand to /Users/my_username/Dropbox/Taskbook.

For example, If I created 3 tasks, they are:

1. task 1
2. task 2
3. task 3

Then, I delete @3, and create a new task 4. The new task will be created as number 4

1. task 1
2. task 2
4. task 4

I can imagine if I use taskbook for a long time. I will have maybe only 1 task in the list, but its number could be @99999, which is a bit inconvenience to type more digits.

Describe the solution you'd like
Is it possible to separate task id (which is unique in json) and task number (showing in the list)? And task number is recyclable, for the case above, it should show:

1. task 1
2. task 2
3. task 4

I find myself frequently creating tasks that I know I'd like to give a priority of 2 or 3. However, the way this is done now is two steps:

tb -t 'My created task'
tb -p @<task_id> 2

It'd be great if we could have an option on the --task option to do one of the following:

tb -t -p=2 'My created task'
tb -t -p 2 'My created task'
tb -t 'My created task' -p 2
