Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

http://blog.worlddomination.be/holygrail

HolyGrail aims to be a base library to interact with a todo (missions) database. It provides a simple interface allowing you to interact with your todo in several ways. It’s a GTD (getting things done) oriented approach.

This means that you can create and use whatever client you like (on the same db) and even use multiple interfaces on the same database (ie: cli, mail, web application etc).

Yes, this is nerdy and I like it.

My main inspiration is Tracks (getontracks.org).

This database handle:
  • missions (todos)

  • quests (projects)

  • realms (contexts)

and all operations on them via one main class: Grail.

I found the todo/project/context vocabulary boring and non motivating so I’ve chose to use the medieval one.

If you like tracks main view, I have written a main_view method that recreate this behavior.

For the moment their isn’t any released client but I’m working on a ncurse one (I have also a really dirty cli client).

Installation

(sudo) python setup.py install

Create a ~/.holygrailrc file and add:

[holygrail]
uri=value # according to http://www.sqlobject.org/SQLObject.html#declaring-a-connection

For example for sqlite:

uri=sqlite:/home/user/.holygrail.db

or for mysql (don’t forget to create the username/database etc …):

uri=mysql://username:password@localhost/database

If you have questions, bugs etc … ping me on irc.freenode.net, nick Bram, or mail me at <cortex@worlddomination.be>
