Create a commandline todo list app that you can use from your terminal and that will keep track of things you need to do.

node todo.js add "eat bak kut teh"

1. [ ] - eat bak kut teh

node todo.js show

1. [ ] - eat bak kut teh
2. [ ] - go shopping
3. [ ] - feed dog
4. [ ] - swim practice
5. [ ] - code app
6. [ ] - meet gabriel

Create and install some things:

npm init
npm install jsonfile
touch data.json

Put the following code inside data.json:

{}

Now you can start coding the index.js file. The one provided has a basic jsonfile example in it. (you should get rid of this basic example as you code your app)

Implement the deliverables in the order shown above.

1. Add to the list. (It starts empty)

2. Show all the items in the list (Once you have something inside it)

Hint: you MUST add a data structure into the json file: the array of todo items you want to track.

So it should look like this:

data.json:

{
  "todoItems" : []
}

Hint: Which jsonfile library functions will you use for each of the above deliverables?

Hint: What will the JSON look like inside the data.json file when your app is done running an add?

node todo.js done 4

1. [ ] - go shopping
2. [ ] - feed dog
3. [ ] - swim practice
4. [x] - code app
5. [ ] - meet gabriel
6. [ ] - eat bak kut teh

Add a column named created_at with data type date and display the date the item was added. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date

Add the ability to permanently delete an item.

Add a column named updated_at with data type date and display the date the item was marked completed.

Use an ascii art generator to add style to your app: http://patorjk.com/software/taag - here you could use the ES6 string interpolation syntax.

There are frameworks to make a completely dynamic command line app. Use a framework to make the app interactive: https://medium.freecodecamp.org/writing-command-line-applications-in-nodejs-2cf8327eee2
