nextaction-rs

Nextaction is a webhook server for Todoist which mimics omnifocus' behavior and can automate your nextaction workflow.

Details

@nextaction

Nextaction will auto tag current nextaction task with @nextaction. It also supports parallel task (with '-' append) and sequential task (with ':' append).

e.g.

|-taskA:
    |-taskB  // This task will be tagged @nextaction
    |-taskC:
        |-taskD

after you complete taskB, it will become

|-taskA:
    |-taskC:
        |-taskD // This task will be tagged @nextaction

And for parallel tasks:

|-taskA-
    |-taskB // This task will be tagged @nextaction
    |-taskC // This task will also be tagged @nextaction

So that you can add a filter on @nextaction to make you focused.

Parallel tasks and sequential tasks can corporate with each other seamlessly:

|-taskA-
    |-taskB:
    |   |-taskC // This task will be tagged @nextaction
    |   |-taskD
    |-taskE // This task will be tagged @nextaction

@someday

Nextaction also supports a tag called @someday. The logic is: when Nextaction meets a task which should be tagged @nextaction but currently has tag @someday, it won't tag @nextaction to that task. So that your someday tasks won't show up on your nextaction list.

Usage

You should set environment variable NXTT_token to your todoist token.

To build the application, (rust)rustup.rs is needed. Run: git clone && cargo run --release

Docker Image

A docker image is also available. Run it by docker run -it -e NXTT_token=<your todoist token> wooya/nextaction

Todo

  • Make nextaction-rs cargo-installable
  • Auto complete parent task && archive parent project if all sub tasks/projects are completed/archived
