ttask-manager 0.2.1

A simple task management package.

TaskManager

TaskManager is a simple Python package for managing tasks. It's designed to be used in command-line interface (CLI) applications, providing basic task management functionality.

Description

This package was created as part of a learning project to understand Python package development and distribution. While it's not intended to be a comprehensive task management solution, it serves as a practical example of how to structure and package a Python project.

The TaskManager package provides functionality to:

• Add tasks to a to-do list
• Mark tasks as completed
• Remove tasks from the list
• View current tasks and completed tasks

What's New in 0.2.1 Release

The 0.2.1 release introduces several key features and improvements to enhance task management and tracking. This version adds daily task tracking, the report method enables saving task activity in a text file allowing users to generate daily progress reports, and optimizes task addition and removal for better performance and clearer feedback. Error handling during data loading is improved, with automatic resets on failure, and task formatting and list resetting have been streamlined for a cleaner and more efficient user experience.

Usage

Here's a quick example of how to use the TaskManager effectively:

from ttask_manager.ttask_manager import TaskManager

# Create a new TaskManager instance
tm = TaskManager()

# Load existing tasks (if any)
tm.load_recent_state()

# Add multiple tasks to the to-do list
tm.add_task("Write README", "Create setup.py", "Push to GitHub", "Test the application")

# View current to-do tasks
print(tm.current_state('to-do'))

# Mark specific tasks as done
tm.task_done("Write README", "Test the application")

# View completed tasks
print(tm.current_state('done'))

# Generate a report of today's tasks
print(tm.report())

# Clear the to-do list after completing tasks
tm.clear_todo_list()

# Reset both lists if needed
tm.reset()

This example showcases how to create a TaskManager instance, load existing tasks, manage to-do and completed tasks, generate a daily report, and reset the lists as needed.

Features

• Add multiple tasks at once
• Remove tasks from the to-do list
• Mark tasks as completed
• View current to-do list and completed tasks
• Clear to-do or completed lists
• Reset both lists

Development

This project was primarily created as a learning exercise in Python package development. Its simplicity is intentional, and there are no plans for significant feature additions or expansions. However, if you find a bug or have a suggestion for a minor improvement, feel free to open an issue on the GitHub repository.

Notice

Due to the pressure of my studies, I will be taking a pause from further development on the TaskManager. Thank you for your understanding and support during this time.
