Creating my own version of what a CLI Task manager and To-do-list would look like

Devcord

Devcord is a CLI tool designed to help you quickly manage your tasks as well as help you monitor your time usage. Along with all the essential to-do list functionalities, Devcord allows you to select a task and start a session on it.

During a session, your time-spent on each of your activity is monitored for you to view later. This is useful for people who want to find out where their time is spent.

None of the data is stored on any server, it is all stored locally on your machine.

Installation

With pip:

pip install devcord

Usage

For adding tasks

Simple add task:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name"
$ devcord tasks --add "task name"

With description:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -d
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --desc

Opens scrollable text box to enter description

With due date:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -dd "dd/mm/yyyy"
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --due "dd/mm/yyyy"

Complete by today:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -t
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --today

Complete in next 7 days:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -w
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --week

With priority (1-5):

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -p 3
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --priority 3

With labels:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -lb "label"
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --label "label"

Add subtask:

$ devcord tasks -a "task name" -pid task_id
$ devcord tasks --add "task name" --parent task_id

For listing tasks

By default, in-progress and pending tasks are listed, with in-progress first followed by pending tasks and completed tasks are skipped.

Simple List tasks:

$ devcord tasks -l
$ devcord tasks --list

List tasks by priority:

$ devcord tasks -l -p 3
$ devcord tasks --list --priority 3

List tasks by label:

$ devcord tasks -l -lb "label"
$ devcord tasks --list --label "label"

List today's tasks:

$ devcord tasks -l -t
$ devcord tasks --list --today

List tasks due in next 7 days:

$ devcord tasks -l -w
$ devcord tasks --list --week

List tasks by status:

$ devcord tasks -l -i
$ devcord tasks --list --complete
$ devcord tasks -l --pending

For managing tasks

Pass the task ID after the "task" keyword to perform any action on the task.
