# todotxt.js

master: [![Build Status][travisci-img-master]][travisci] develop: [![Build Status][travisci-img-develop]][travisci]

A JavaScript parser and container for the TODO files in the [todo.txt format][format].

## From CLI to JavaScript

A mapping of what to do for each CLI command (and an implementation status).

-   **Multiple lists** - multiple in-memory lists are supported through multiple
    instances of `TodoList`. Todo: Ability to persist and retrieve from a file.
-   `add|a` - Implemented. `TodoList.add(task)`
-   `addm` - Will be implemented as a file reader. Call `TodoList.add` lots.
-   `addto` - Call `TodoList.add` on the correct `TodoList` instance.
-   `append|app` - Implemented: `TodoList.append(id, text)`, `TodoItem.append(text)`.
-   `archive` - Todo with file management.
-   `deduplicate` - Implemented: `TodoList.deduplicate()`
-   `del|rm` - Implemented: `TodoList.remove(id)`
-   `depri|dp` - Implemented: `TodoList.deprioritise(1)`, `TodoItem.deprioritise()`
-   `do` - Implemented: `TodoList.findById(id).complete()`, `TodoList.complete(1, 2, 3)`
-   `list|ls` - Implemented: `TodoList.list(term, priority, case_sensitive, completed)`. Todo: helpers/aliases (below)
-   `listall|lsa` - Implemented: `TodoList.listAll([term], [priority], [case])`
-   `listcon|lsc` - Implemented: `TodoList.contexts()`
-   `listproj|lsprj` - Implemented: `TodoList.projects()`
-   `move` - Todo with file management.
-   `prepend|prep` - Implemented: `TodoList.prepend(id, text)`, `TodoItem.prepend(text)`.
-   `pri|p` - `TodoItem.priority = "A"`, `TodoList.prioritise(1, "A")`
-   `replace` - `TodoList.replace(1, "New task text")`.
-   `report` - Todo.

## Support

This library aims to be both `<script>` and module compatible (so you can use it
with node/rhino). I *think* it's CommonJS compatible at the moment - if it's not
and you know how to make it so - please send a PR! Finding good information on
this has been difficult.

## Testing

Tested with Jasmine - these can be run using SpecRunner.html which runs them in
the browser, or by node using [node-jasmine][node-jasmine] (`npm test`).

## About

This project does things quite similarly to [jsTodoTxt][jsTodoTxt]; it also:

-   Has a list container that allows for actions on the list (such as add, append, pri, sorting etc.) from the CLI tool.
-   Should be both client and server compatible.
-   Contains an EBNF notation.

> Why not fork? I wanted to have a bash at building a JS lib from scratch :)

Primarily developed for a [todotxt-demo][todotxt-demo] app.
