Rust Tasks

A tasklite clone made to learn rust. It has some changes to cater for how I'd like to use the tool.

Set up

rust_tasks

The cli tool. Install with:

cargo install --path rust_tasks

and configure with a file in $HOME/.config/rust_tasks/config.toml like:

[backend]
strain = "Api"
uri = "http://127.0.0.1:3000"

[backend]
strain = "SQLite"
uri = "file:///path/to/sqlite.db"

Summary configuration is optional and looks like:

[summary]
start = "08:00"
end = "17:00"
tags.meeting = "PT30M"
tags.work = "PT45M"
goal = "PT30M"

which we use to calculated some stats about how the day is going on.

Sync configuration is optinal and is similar to the [backend] config like:

[[sync]] # first sync
strain = "Api"
uri = "http://abc.co"

[[sync]] # second sync
strain = "SQLite"
uri = "file:///path/to/sync.db"

Run:

rust_tasks --help

Tasks Server

A server that's compatible with the cli tool's Api strain. Install with:

cargo install --path tasks_server

and configure with a file at $HOME/.config/rust_tasks/tasks_server.toml like:

db_uri = "file:///path/to/sqlite.db"
bind_address = "127.0.0.1:3000"

Or you can use docker by running:

docker image build -f server_dockerfile -t tasks_server .
docker container run --rm \
		-v $(pwd)/test_server.toml:/.config/rust_tasks/tasks_server.toml \
		-v /home/rookie/gdrive_rclone/tasklite/main.db:/tmp/tasklite.db \
		-u $(id -u):$(id -g) \
		-p 0.0.0.0:3000:3000 tasks_server

Quirks

In guix, to install rust_tasks:

export CC=$(which gcc)
guix install sqlite
