Request: Push/Pull with Google Tasks #113

Closed ninjawil closed 12 years ago

ninjawil commented 12 years ago

Hi,

I'm a big fan of todo.txt and the todotxt.net implementation is fantastic.

It would be brilliant if we could have a push pull (sync) ability with google tasks so we could indirectly manage our tasks through google calendar too.

This would push the usability of this software to great levels.

Thanks

Will

Hi WIll, Thanks for the praise and the suggestion. I can see the benefit of google task syncing, but that's out of the scope of what I want todotxt.net doing.

Cheers,

Ben

Hi,

Do you have a suggestion as to how I could implement this alongside todotxt.net?

Thanks

Will

Sorry, I've never used gtasks, so I have no idea. In general good has pretty good APIs though, so it shouldn't be too hard to pick a todo.txt implementation in a language you like (for parsing the todo.txt file) and writing the API calling code yourself. Syncing would be a pain though: it would be very hard to automatically resolve conflicts because the todo.txt format (purposefully) doesn't store very much metadata.
