Godoist

Godoist provides a (really) simple way to add tasks to a project on Todoist.

Installing

Dependencies you may need

libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0
libgl-dev
libglib2.0-0
libglx-dev
libgtk-3-dev
libx11-dev
libxcursor-dev
libxi-dev
libxrandr-dev

For now, the only way to go is to build from source and place the binary within your $PATH.

make build

You also need to create a config file in your home directory, named .godoist. It must contain your Todoist API Key, in the following format:

{"todoist": {"apiKey": "123ABC"}}

After that you should be able to run it :)

Examples

Adding a new task

./main add "Some task"
Task created! Id: ******

Listing pending tasks

./main list "Inbox"
[]godoist.Task{
  {
    Content: "Some task",
    Id: ******,
    ProjectId: ******,
    ParentId: ******,
    Url: "https://todoist.com/app/task/******",
  },
(...)

There's also the option to run in GUI-mode, by passing the -g|--use-gui flag.

This is useful to reduce the steps necessary to create a task. You can use something like sxhkd to bind a hotkey to your godoist -g add command.
