Hi folks, I came across your initiative while searching for the right tool. A couple of features that I think would be great:

i) add file links to task from the cli: task task# addfile ~/Documents/file.pdf task task# addfile ~/Documents/*.pdf ii) link files and notes

iii) list file attachments

iv) possible web view of tasks/notes/files (less important)

Hello,

  1. This is subject to a lot of personal opinions and technical implementations. It needs to be described a little bit more.
  2. Linking files and notes is already possible by using Markdown links. I don’t plan to go any further than this. Emacs’s org-mode has a nice feature to link files from org-mode with a keybinding, and I think it’s an editor feature, not a task feature.
  3. Listing files attachments is basically a sub-task of (1.).
  4. So, besides a potential TUI I will add, I don’t plan any client for toodoux. However, I do plan an API and even a daemon, so that people can play with it. But I will not make a web app and I will not accept contributions adding a web app. If people want to create a web app for toodoux, they are free to use the soon-to-come API and make one. toodoux aims to provide task editing from the terminal. I want the API to authorize viewing, editing and adding notes from other software, but the API consumption will be on the app side, not on toodoux’.
