Create Deck card from email #5900

Open pabsta1 opened 2 years ago

pabsta1 commented 2 years ago

Feature Request

Allow to convert an email in a Deck card (nextcloud Deck-app).

Summary

It would be great if an email could be converted as a deck card. The email title would be the default card title, the recipients would be the default persons tasked to the card,the mail body would become the card comment, and so on.

Sending Deck cards via email could also be useful (as for calendar invites), but this may not fall in the purview of the mail app.

Could be done in a similar way as it was implemented with Talk:

Mail to Deck would be used here as well. We don't use the Task app but find the Deck app more useful.

It looks like this can be done but has a weird flow... Reply to Sender Only, then under Smart Picker, Create a New Deck Card. It would be nice to just be an option in the More Actions section while viewing the email in the reader pane.

This should be already feasible, because in Mail it is possible to add events and tasks to calendars. Given that Deck creates calendars with boards, it should be possible to add a task to the calendar created by Deck and see it in the board.

The problem is that calendars created by Deck are not visible in the dropdown for the "Add task" action: https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/9869

Deck calendars are read-only. This is not an option

BiglifeMatt commented 1 month ago

Are we meaning to say Deck Calendars? I thought we are talking about Deck Cards being generated from Email messages. If I go to reply to an email and select the Smart Picker, it would allow me to create a Deck Card from there. Unfortunately, Smart Picker does not stay open on my screen anymore... it flashes really quick but disappears or is hiding behind the screen now. However, it would be ideal to have the option of creating a deck card from the More Actions list on the individual Email menu.

I understand mine was some sort of workaround, as you are looking for a tighter integration directly with the app.

~I also suppose that Deck calendars couldn't be made writable, right? @ChristophWurst This may not be the right repository to ask it, but it would make for a very good integration between Tasks and Deck, as I want to have CalDAV tasks but also a Kanban view.~

Write access to Deck calendars is being tracked here: https://github.com/nextcloud/deck/issues/2399 I hope there's some way to foster the discussion or finance the development, as I encounter the same problem as the last comment.

In this way my suggestion could become useful in the future, for Mail and maybe for other apps too, given that Deck would have a common ground shared with the entire Nextcloud environment.

@ChristophWurst can you (or is it ok if I do this) change the title of this to "create Deck card from email"? Because the "send deck cards via email" part is already available via https://github.com/newroco/mail2deck and it is not planned to bring this into Deck, correct?

Currently, you can convert an email into an event, and into a task (when this is fixed), but not into a Deck card. That would save a lot of time for users!

Also, I think that it can be done via Reply to Email, then Using a tool in the Smart Picker to Create a Deck Card, however, one that is a weird step or way to do that.   "Alexander Müller" @.*** – July 18, 2024 10:41 AM
