kantrack 0.1.1

Super lightweight task tracker that integrates directly with Git repositories.

kantrack

Kantrack is a lightweight task tracker that lives in your Git repositories, keeping project tasks versioned alongside your code. It features a simple FastAPI backend, a minimal web UI, and a CLI for managing tasks. Kantrack is intended for solo developers who want an easy way to track their projects, keeping the task tracking as close to the code as possible - no need to sign in to 3rd party software, nothing to pay, and no risk of forgetting where all of your plans and notes are when you return to a project after six months.

Features

• Git-native – Task data is stored in a json file inside your repository.
• Minimal and fast – A FastAPI backend with a simple web interface.
• CLI-first – Manage tasks efficiently with a command-line interface.

Installation

Install with pip:

pip install kantrack

Or with poetry:

poetry add kantrack

Usage

Start the Board

Start the board and open the web UI:

kantrack start

Runs a FastAPI server on 127.0.0.1:8000. You can specify the host and port, but you'd need to manually update the front-end code to point at the new host/port if you do so.

Add a Task (CLI)

Add a task to the default column ("planned")

kantrack add "Implement authentication"

Specify the column with --to "name", and the size with --size "size". If you specify a column name that doesn't exist, you'll be asked if you'd like to create it.

List Tasks (CLI)

kantrack list

Move a Task Between Columns (CLI)

kantrack mv "task name" --to "new column"

Remove a Task

kantrack rm "task name"

Development

Clone and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/kantrack.git
cd kantrack
poetry install

Set up pre-commit hooks:

pre-commit install
pre-commit run --all-files

This ensures that code is formatted with Black and imports are managed with isort.
