#TaskBoard
A Kanban-inspired app for keeping track of things that need to get done.
The goal of TaskBoard is to provide a simple and clean interface to a functional and minimal application for keeping track of tasks. It's not trying to be the next Trello or LeanKit.
###How It's Made
- Front end
-
AngularJS single-page app.
-
ng-context-menu, jQueryUI Datepicker, Spectrum colorpicker, (noty) notifications, marked Markdown parser, and -prefix-free CSS prefix helper.
-
Bootstrap for base look and feel.
- Back end
-
RESTful API written in PHP, using Slim Framework for routing and RedBeanPHP for database ORM.
-
Token-based authentication.
-
SQLite database.
##Installation
###Requirements A web server running PHP with sqlite enabled. Developed and tested under Apache2 running PHP 5.5+.
The server must have sqlite
and php5-sqlite
installed, as well as the rewrite
and expires
Apache modules.
Note: For Apache v2.3.9 and later, virtual host for a site should have AllowOverride All
for TaskBoard root directory. Otherwise, .htaccess files will be completely ignored.
###Install Installing TaskBoard is as easy as 1, 2, 3!
Note: You can skip step 2 if you don't care about minification of JavaScript and CSS for a production environment!
-
Clone the repository directly where you want it, or clone and copy to it's final location.
git clone https://github.com/kiswa/TaskBoard.git
-
Open
TaskBoard/build/
in a terminal and run./build-all
. -
Visit the site and log in with the username and password
admin
(and don't forget to change the password once you're in!).
Note: Ensure TaskBoard/api/
is writable so the back end can do its job!
##Features
###Settings The settings page allows normal users to see what boards they have access to and edit their user settings.
Admin users have the same, with the additional abilities of adding/editing users and boards, and viewing a log of all activity in TaskBoard.
###Boards Each board may have as many columns as needed. For example, a software project might have columns like:
- Proposed
- Backlog
- In Work
- Test
- Done
- Archived
Or maybe you want to track a simple todo list with just:
- Todo
- Doing
- Done
It's all up to you! However many columns you have, each column may have tasks added to it, and tasks can be dragged to other columns as they progress (or edited and assigned to a new column).
Boards may also have categories for additional organization, e.g. Bug
, Enhancement
, New Feature
.
###Items An item (task) only has to have a Title to be added to a board, but there is much more than that available. Items may be assigned to any user on the board (or left Unassigned), and include options for Due Date, Color, Points (an optional difficulty rating), and Category.
TaskBoard uses a Markdown parser for the Description, allowing for better display of details (like this readme).
Once an item has been entered, it may have Comments or Attachments added to it by viewing the task detail. There is a link to edit the item, which takes you to a modal much like the original add item dialog. For admin users, there is also a link to delete the item. This view also shows the task's activity log on the right side of the screen, displaying the complete history of events related to the item.

##Lines of Code
It's silly to use LOC as a metric, but it can be interesting to see what goes into a project. This is only for TaskBoard files (library code is excluded), using CLOC.
Count was done from parent directory of TaskBoard as ./cloc-1.62.pl TaskBoard --exclude-dir=lib,api/lib
