Todoer

Todoer is a command-line tool written in Go that processes a markdown file containing a to-do list. It separates completed and uncompleted tasks, and moves completed tasks to a specific date section in the file. This helps in organizing tasks based on their completion date.

Features

• Parses a markdown file for tasks.
• Separates completed and uncompleted tasks.
• Moves completed and aborted tasks to a specific date section in the file.
• Configurable to move tasks to either the current day or the previous day based on the current time.

Usage

todoer [options] [file]

Options

• -h, --help: Show the help message.

Example

todoer tasks.md

Task Format

Tasks in the markdown file should follow this format:

- [ ] Task description
- [x] Completed task description
~~- [ ] Aborted task description~~

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/danielsrojo/todoer.git
   

2. Change to the project directory:

   cd todoer
   

3. Build the project:

   go build -o todoer
   

4. Move the executable to a directory in your PATH:

   mv todoer /usr/local/bin/
   

How It Works

1. The tool reads the specified markdown file.
2. It parses tasks, separating them into completed and uncompleted tasks.
3. Completed and aborted tasks are moved to a section labeled with the current date or the previous day if run before a specific time (9 AM).
4. The updated content is written back to the file.
