TodoScheduler helps you managing and scheduling your tasks. You can split your tasks into chunks and schedule them for specific days. Scheduling all of your tasks means less postponed tasks and a higher productivity. That means more free time!
This repository contains the backend of TodoScheduler (i.e., an API endpoint). There is a JavaScript web client that can be used as a frontend for TodoScheduler.
The installation is that of a common Django app. Basically, the following steps are required (for advanced configuration as well as a production-suitable database, see the official Django documentation):
It is assumed that a postgres database server is running on localhost with a user todoscheduler with password todoscheduler, that has access to a database todoscheduler.
Create a virtual environment and activate it:
python3 -m venv .pyenv
. .pyenv/bin/activate
Install the dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Copy the example settings:
cp todoscheduler/settings.py{.example,}
Migrate the database:
./manage.py migrate
Run the development server (again, see the official documentation for production-suitable deployments):
./manage.py runserver
For the scheduling of task chunk series, you need to run the following regularly (e.g., once daily):
./manage.py scheduletaskchunkseries
The only officially supported database backend is Postgresql. While most of the features work with other databases like sqlite, some do not. For example, the scheduling of task chunk series uses bulk creation that requires RETURNING inserts such that the ids of all objects are available from the single INSERT query.
