Configuring

You'll need to configure Todoman before the first usage, using its simple ini-like configuration file.

Configuration File

The configuration file should be placed in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/todoman/config.py. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to ~/.config is most situations, so this will generally be ~/.config/todoman/config.py.

Sample configuration

The below example should serve as a reference. It will read ics files from any directory inside ~/.local/share/calendars/, uses the ISO-8601 date format, and set the due date for new todos in 48hs.

../../config.py.sample

Color and displayname

  • You can set a color for each task list by creating a color file containing a color code in the hex format: #RRGGBB.
  • A file named displayname indicates how the task list should be named and is needed when there are multiple directories sharing a name, e.g.: when using multiple $CloudInstances. The default is the directory name.

See also relevant documentation for the vdir format.

Timezone

Todoman will use the system-wide configured timezone. If this doesn't work for you, you _may override the timezone by specifying the TZ environment variable.

For instruction on changing your system's timezone, consult your distribution's documentation.
