📕 Things Logbook for Obsidian
This plugin for Obsidian will periodically sync your Things Logbook with your Obsidian Daily Notes.
Why?
Anecdotally, I love using Things for task management. But I also want Obsidian daily notes to be a holistic view of my day-to-day. This plugin dumps completed tasks from Things into my daily notes, meaning I can keep my same workflow, and my Second Brain has a new data source.
Disclaimer 🚨
The initial sync will backfill your entire Things Logbook into Obsidian. This potentially means creating/modifying hundreds of files. I recommend testing this plugin out in a new vault first to make sure you're happy with the result.
Backup your data
While I have tested this plugin with my own data, your mileage may vary. I am not at fault for any data loss that may incur. Backup your data!
Usage
This plugin will fetches all your historical tasks and dumps them into the Daily Note corresponding to the completed date of the task.
It also displays any subtasks, tags, or areas associated to the tasks.
It will refetch the tasks at a designated interval.
Settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Section Heading | Controls where the tasks will be displayed within your daily notes. Defaults to ## Logbook |
| Sync Frequency | How often you want to fetch the tasks from the Things DB |
| Tag Prefix | Allows you to prefix your Things tags into a parent tag (e.g. #logbook/work #logbook/school) |
