A command line tool managing all sorts of TODO lists

Project description

pda is a command line tool used to manage useful lists in your daily ife - such as TODO, TOLEARN and TOREAD lists, etc. You can use it to create as many lists as you want.

Install

$ sudo pip install pda

Or (but not recommended):

$ sudo easy_install pda

Synopsis

List names can be any string you want, personally I have todo, tolearn and toread as available list names. List data is always stored locally. And, depends on the configuration setting in your configuration file (~/.pdaconfig), list data can also be synced to Github Issue and accessed through pda; that is how you make your todo list(s) portable via web interface.

If no configuration file is provided, pda assumes it is to be used in local mode; in other words, list data only stored locally.

For more detailed usage:

CREATE tasks

To add (-a option) a task in a list. If list with listname has not yet created, this command will automatically create such list in database. See example below:

# Command format:
#
# $ pda -a <task summary text> <-t PERIOD> <-p PRIORITY> <listname>
#
# ===> add a task in a list named <listname>
#
# <-t> specifies the time frame this task is scheduled to
#      allowed values are => d (day), w (week), m (month), s (season), y (year)
#
# <-p> specifies the priority of this task
#      allowed values are => 1 (low), 2 (medium), 3 (high), 4 (must), 5 (urgmust)

$ pda -a 'wash dishes' -t d -p 4 todo

UPDATE tasks

All the attributes of a task can be changed to the specified values in the options. If a value with an option is not specified in the command, then the corresponding attribute in list will stay unchanged.

# Command format:
#
# $ pda -r <N>
#
# ===> delete a task numbered <N>

$ pda -r 5

# Command format:
#
# $ pda -e <N> -s <task summary text> <-t PERIOD> <-p PRIORITY> <listname>
#
# ===> update a task numbered <N> in a list named <listname>
#
# <-s> specifies the NEW task summary
#
# <-t> specifies the NEW time frame this task is scheduled to
#      allowed values are => d (day), w (week), m (month), s (season), y (year)
#
# <-p> specifies the NEW priority of this task
#      allowed values are => 1 (low), 2 (medium), 3 (high), 4 (must), 5 (urgmust)
#
# <lisname> specifies the NEW list this task belongs to

$ pda -e 3 -s 'vacuum floor this week' -t w
