This is a hook for TaskWarrior (http://www.taskwarrior.org), which allows configurable actions to be initiated on 'task ID start'.
Note: This hook has been written to leverage taskpirate, for greater hook efficiency. Please see https://github.com/tbabej/taskpirate for instructions. Don't worry, it's straightforward.
git clone https://github.com/linuxcaffe/task.start-actions
cp task.start-actions/on-* ~/.task/hooks/
This hook leverages tasklib, so you need to install that too:
pip install tasklib
