[Feature Request] Exclude/ignore "other side" events (by title)

Open OddBloke opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I'm looking at using tw_gcal_sync to sync my upcoming meetings into taskwarrior. I have some events on my calendar that I will never want synced (e.g. "Lunch (via Clockwise)").

I would like to be able to specify a list of substrings (e.g. "via Clockwise") whose presence will cause tw_gcal_sync to exclude an event from the set considered to be present in GCal, so they will never be synced.

This is a fair request :) This isn't currently implemented so if you want to have a go, let me know, otherwise I may look into it, but can't promise on an ETA

By the way, even though tw_gcal_sync is pretty stable by now, nevertheless I would suggest to consider a way to bring your synchronization to a clean slate if needed. For example in my case, I always sync a subset of my taskwarrior tasks (thouse with +remindme) to a completely separate google calendar so, if I wanted to reset the synchronization, I just delete that calendar and delete all the files under ~/.config/taskwarrior_syncall/... and run tw_gcal_sync ... again.

I suppose that you could resort to something similar (e.g., task rm +special_tag_of_synced_items && rm -rf ~/.config/taskwarrior_syncall/...).
