Example usage
Here’s an example how to open a todo.txt file and print the description of all
tasks that are not marked as completed:
import pytodotxt
todotxt = pytodotxt.TodoTxt('todo.txt')
todotxt.parse()
for task in todotxt.tasks:
if not task.is_completed:
print(task.description)
Here is how you add a new task to an existing todo.txt file:
import datetime
import pytodotxt
todotxt = pytodotxt.TodoTxt('todo.txt')
todotxt.parse()
task = pytodotxt.Task()
task.parse('This is a new task')
task.creation_date = datetime.date.today()
todotxt.tasks.append(task)
todotxt.save()
