NextAction
A more GTD-like workflow for Todoist. Uses the REST API to add and remove a @next_action
label from tasks.
This program looks at every list in your Todoist account.
Any list that ends with -
or =
is treated specially, and processed by NextAction.
Note that NextAction requires Todoist Premium to function properly, as labels are a premium feature.
Requirements
- Python 2.7, Python 3.0+ is unsupported at the moment
todoist-python
package.
Activating NextAction
Sequential list processing
If a list ends with -
, the top level of tasks will be treated as a priority queue and the most important will be labeled @next_action
.
Importance is determined by order in the list
Parallel list processing
If a list name ends with =
, the top level of tasks will be treated as parallel @next_action
s.
The waterfall processing will be applied the same way as sequential lists - every parent task will be treated as sequential. This can be overridden by appending =
to the name of the parent task.
Executing NextAction
You can run NexAction from any system that supports Python, and also deploy to Heroku as a constant running service
Running NextAction
NextAction will read your environment to retrieve your Todoist API key, so to run on a Linux/Mac OSX you can use the following commandline
python nextaction.py -a <API Key>
