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_actions. 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>
