Set up the configuration file:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Taskwarrior published a new feature to synchronize tasks others, but the feature was not ready.
|
|
The server's default installation instructions assume that users pay for hosting services.
|
|
All listed providers run proprietary software and actively support genocide.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To ignore the synchronization, tell the configuration file to use a local synchronization file.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
task config sync.local.server_dir
|
|
task config data.location ~/.local/state/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add a task:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task add update linux
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See which task is next:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task next
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note the id number.
|
|
|
|
Mark a task as started:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task start 1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once finished:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task 1 done
|
|
```
|
|
|

# Projects
|
|
|
|
Add a project:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task add project:house buy potted plant
|
|
task add proj:house.repair buy screwdriver
|
|
task add proj:house.repair buy shelf brackets
|

|
|
task add pro:house.paint $t
|
|
done
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task pro:house sum
|
|
task burndown.daily pro:house
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The summaries will show how fast a project is being completed, and when you can expect it to finish at the present rate.

# Review
|
|
|
|
View list of tasks completed in the last week:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task end.after:today-1wk completed
|
|
```
|
|
|

# User Defined Attributes
|
|
|
|
Define a new attribute for tasks called 'size'.
|
|
The 'user defined attribute' (UDA) needs a `type` and `label`.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task config uda.size.type string
|
|
task config uda.size.label Size
|
|
```
|
|
You can also ensure task tasks can only be `large`, `medium`, or `small`, then set a default.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task config uda.size.values large,medium,small
|
|
uda.size.default=medium
|
|
```
|
|

|
# Tricks
|
|
|
|
This command shows tasks I'm most interested in:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
task next +ACTIVE or +OVERDUE or due:today or scheduled:today or pri:H
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The command is long, so `alias` is your friend.
