Todoist Backup Exporter

This project allows you to export your last Todoist backup to a zip file.

Running

Docker (Recommended)

docker run -- rm \
    -e TODOIST_TOKEN=... \
    -e ... \
    -v $(pwd):/exports \
    reaperberri/todoist-backup-exporter

Note: You need to mount a volume to the /exports directory to get the file out of the container (the example comand above mounts the current directory).

Go

# export environment variables here like so:
# export DEST_DIR=...
go run .

Environment variables

Required	Name	Description	Default value
Yes	TODOIST_TOKEN	Your Todoist API token
No	DEST_DIR	Destination directory to download the file to (Don't need to change if running in a container)	/exports
No	DEST_FILENAME_INCLUDE_DATE	Whether to include the backup date in the file name	false

To get the Todoist API token, go to Todoist Integrations, click the "Developer" tab and copy the token from the API token section.
