Todist - HabitRPG sync

Build Status

This is a small utility to help you keep your Todoist tasks in sync with HabitRPG.

Installation

Ensure that you have NodeJS installed.

Then run: npm install -g todoist-habitrpg

Windows Troubleshooting

Currently the Windows NodeJS installer has a bug in it. If you encounter an Error: ENOENT, stat 'C:\Users\.....' error, just create a folder at the path specified and re-run the above command.

Running

From the terminal or command prompt enter the command below and replace habitRpgUserId, habitRpgApiToken, and todoistApiToken with the correct values. You can find directions on how to find these values in the Locating Your API Tokens section.

todoist-habitrpg -u habitRpgUserId -t habitRpgApiToken -a todoistApiToken

Locating your API Tokens

HabitRPG

Your User ID (habitRpgUserId) and API Token (habitRpgApiToken) can be located at your HabitRPG settings page.

Todoist

Your API Token (todoistApiToken) can be located by following these steps:

  1. Login to your account at todoist.com
  2. Click the "Gear" icon in the top right corner
  3. Click "Todoist Settings"
  4. Click the "Account" header inside the modal.
  5. Your API Token is located on this page.

Choosing the directory where the sync history is stored

Pass a -f flag followed by the directory where you want your file to be stored, relative to your home directory. For example, if you want the json file stored in ~/foo/bar/.todoist-habitrpg.json, you'd write the following at the end of your terminal command

-f ~/foo/bar

Assigning Attribute Labels

Once you've reached level 10 in HabitRPG, you start gaining skill points and can choose to allocate those skill points based on the kind of task you do. You can choose what kind of task it is by applying labels in Todoist. Below is a list of valid labels for each attribute.

Attribute Name Valid Labels
Strength str, strength, physical, phy
Intelligence int, intelligence, mental, men
Constitution con, constitution, social, soc
Perception per, perception, other, oth

If more than one valid label is assigned to a task in todoist, the first valid label will be assigned to the task in HabitRPG.

Updating to new versions

Periodically new versions will be published. You can install these updates with the command below.

npm update -g todoist-habitrpg

Command Line Help

todoist-habitrpg --help

Cron Usage - Linux/Mac Only

I would recommend setting this up as a cron job for automatic syncing.

  1. crontab -e
  2. Set your $HOME variable: HOME=/home/username
  3. */10 * * * * todoist-habitrpg -u habitRpgUserId -t habitRpgApiToken -a todoistApiToken
  4. Verify it was saved with crontab -l

Troubleshooting: If this doesn't work for you, please use absolute paths or adjust the PATH for your cron.
