Export function #119

Closed EllieBruggeman closed 4 years ago

EllieBruggeman commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A function for exporting data seems to be not available yet.

Describe the solution you'd like Function for exporting data with respect to tasks at Taskunifier in csv/xml/etc. format.

Describe alternatives you've considered Currently backups can be made and be used for restoring data in Taskunifier itself.

Syncing with for example Toodledo would be a work around (however, currently (not yet reported as bug) I'am experiencing sync errors when trying to sync the data from taskunifier to Toodledo)

Additional context n/a

May I ask you for what purpose ? Is it only to backup the data but at another location ? If you really want to make sure your all the TaskUnifier data are backed up, you can also go to Settings -> General and change the data folder location to dropbox or icloud for example.

In general I have a great preference for tools that provide the option to export data in a universal accepted format.

Specifically at this moment: I have been experimenting with Taskunifier next to Toodledo. After first synchronization of my Toodledo tasks to Taskunifier, and successful synchronisation of changes bi-directional, a day later I now cannot sync anymore in either way (Taskunifier 2 Toodledo: Error: Request failed with status code 400.). No apparent changes to the tasks to cause this sync-error have been made (I started with about 300 active tasks and added a few, and changes details that previously seemed to cause no sync-errors). To start over again I would now like to use the more actual data of Taskunifier to fill Toodledo from scratch again. And then start over to see if the sync-error will be reproduced and after what changes.

The export facility could be very useful Now that you are able to log each individual time spend on each task in the latest update, including each start time and finish time. I could use this data if there was a way to include it in an exported file. This is obviously an enhancement, but would mean the data collected could be used outside of TaskUnifer 2 for further analysis.

This facility to record each time slot against each task is not available in any other Toodledo synching app that I have seen.

Keep up the good work

Import/export as been added to the next version. The file is a zip containing json files, which can be read by any text editor.
