Auto-expanding of links (Jira, GitHub) #158

Open pneff opened 2 years ago

pneff commented 2 years ago

I just came across Taskbutler when looking for tools that would automatically expand links in my Todoist. Specifically I often add links to Jira tickets and GitHub PRs to process. Those I would like to change to have the title automatically.

At the moment I do this with a little Python script I have integrated with Alfred. But Taskbutler looks like a good basis to automate this further.

Before investing into this, I wanted to open this ticket to see if you would merge any such PRs if I contributed them to the repo.

Thanks for reaching out! I'd be happy to merge such a feature.

Please use the branch beta to create a branch, as I'm just in the process of migrating from Travic-CI to GithubActions.

Depending on your implementation, it would probably good to limit the search&expand to specific projects in Todoist(configured as key in config.ini). But as long as it gets an on/off key in the config.ini I'm fine with any implementation that fits your needs.

Thank you @6uhrmittag. I noticed when looking at the code, that you already have some GitHub config options. Am I right in assuming that this was meant not for the link expansion I mention but more for syncing entire issue lists from GitHub to Todoist?

Yes, this. I startet a 2-way sync, but never finished it(code in e8bbd51).

It had no auto-expand feature though, since it created the issues directly via API, it used the returned URL for linking to it.
