[TickTick] Include priority when adding task

[D-Pagey]

Extension

https://www.raycast.com/appest/ticktick

Description

The extension is great, however I wish I could set the priority when adding a task. I found the applescript code but when I tried to include the priority arguement, I kept getting AppleScript errors.

On a side note - why use apple script as opposed to TickTicks REST API? Using the REST API wouldn't be reliant on having the actual TickTick Mac application installed.

Who will benefit from this feature?

I assume lots of TickTick users make use of the priority system of organising their todos.

Anything else?

const result = (await runAppleScript(`
    set result to ""
    tell application "TickTick"
      set result to add task to list "${projectId}" title "${title}" description "${description}"${
      dueDate ? ` due date "${dueDate}"` : ""
    } priority ${3} from "raycast" ${isAllDay ? "with" : "without"} allday
    end tell
  `))  

This didnt work for me, I saw from the types that priority is a number.

This Apple Script doesn't support priority syntax yet.

The REST API needs user authentication, and TickTick Open API has a limit on that and it also doesn't work when the user has no internet connection.

A lot of the Raycast extensions involve the user logging in and proving their own API key.

Being able to set priority seems like a pretty fundamental feature to any To Do app imo. Enough so to warrant having a go with the REST API.

Happy to have a look at integrating it if it'd be a welcome addition.
