planner2taskwarrior

A bash script to add planner tasks to taskwarrior. Generate plans with planner and automatically add all tasks into taskwarrior. Tasks will use the start and due dates calculated in planner.

Usage

planner2taskwarrior.sh /path/to/planner/file.xml

As of 2016-03-18 the script will pull out all the tasks from the planner xml. For each task:

• Task already completed - do nothing
• Task not completed - check if already added
  • If not added - add new task
    • New task will use 1) project name 2) task name 3) start date as wait 4) due date as wait
  • If task already added - update the wait and due dates

Info

To do

• Read project dependencies to properly assign task order
