Subject: backend for todo.txt format (todotxt.com)

Message-ID: <8760ytwb1i.fsf@jupiter.lan> (raw)
I just tried to write am backend for this todolist format:
https://github.com/ginatrapani/todo.txt-cli/wiki/The-Todo.txt-Format
and after a few hours
with no real success I gave up.
I want to first have a very simple convertion of some tasks like that:
TODO foo
DONE bar
to:
foo
x bar
bonus would be to ignore headline levels for now
so:
* Tasks
** TODO foo
** DONE bar
would be ok too.
There is a nice opensource android App that uses this format:
https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=task&fdid=nl.mpcjanssen.simpletask
so it would be nice to be able to easy have a list of your tasks with
you in a touchfriendly environment. I know there is mobileorg but the ui
is horrible and the projekt is more or less abandoned.
Maybe export/import backend is the wrong way to go, a sync or exchange
feature would be better so maybe org-agenda todo export/import ability
would be better? but for now a export alone would be an advancement.
dont know if import or export can update/replace lines?
maybe with some kind of taskid property?
maybe thats stupid and I should just fork such am tool to make it
understand org-mode format, but a automatic way to send stuff one way to
android would be a good starting step, to test if I use that feature
much.
exporting to todo.txt format seemed just to be the easiest way, heck I
even could write a macro to do that if nothing else is reasonable easy
to do.
