Scheduling tool for recurring tasks #37

Open stianchris opened 4 years ago

stianchris commented 4 years ago

In our project, we have some recurring tasks, that have to be done e.g. weekly, or twice a week / other patterns. We always try to distribute these tasks as much as possible, so we always do polls for a month, where every day has to be covered. The current features are not specially made for this, so they are not as intuitive as they could be. It would be nice to have a tool, where you can define time patterns, which repeat themselves as long as you want them to. In addition there should be definable open slots for people to fill. This way you always have an overview, which tasks are still open, or where just one more person is needed, etc. One example, where this is already implemented, is the foodsharing platform (https://gitlab.com/foodsharing-dev/foodsharing). Is such a tool wanted, or already planned? I also know python - if this could help - but would need some starting assistance.. Anyone interested in setting up such a tool? Is this the right place to put such a request anyways?
