Taskmono is a Command Line Task Tracking app, where you can,

• Add, update and delete tasks
• Mark them in-progress or done
• display all, todo, in-progress or completed tasks

• Taskmono
  • Contents
  • Installation (UNIX/Linux)
  • Usage

Note: If you do not want to perform any installation, you may simply run the main.py file using python3 main.py help

However by installing, you can run the task tracker program using the taskmono command (or any other custom command, check step 6) from any location.

1. Clone this repo or download and extract the project folder

2. Move the project directory into a not so temporary location (moving it after installation requires re-configuring symlinks)

3. Change permission of main.py file to make it executable

    $chmod 744 main.py
   

4. If not exists, Create a customized directory for local/user scripts, try to check

    $cd $HOME/bin
   

   If it does not exist, then

    mkdir $HOME/bin
   

5. Add this dir to PATH, copy paste the following in your .bashrc or .zshrc file

    export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/bin"
   

6. Create a SYMLINK in $HOME/bin directory to execute the script using the taskmono command.

    $ln -s path/to/taskmono/main.py $HOME/bin/taskmono
   

   If you want to use any other command other than taskmono you can simply insert your command in place of taskmono

    //optional custom command
    $ln -s path/to/taskmono/main.py $HOME/bin/<your custom command>
   

7. Refresh the shell by

    $. $HOME/.zshrc
    //or
    $. $HOME/.bashrc
   

8. Try

    $taskmono help
   

9. Use alias for quick command (Optional)

   Ex: Add the following line of code in .zshrc or .bashrc

    alias tm="taskmono"
   

   Now run taskmono using tm

    $tm list
   

1. help - prints all commands

    $taskmono help
    
    Options:
