A very simple import/export plugin for rememberthemilk (rtm) tasks. The main use-case for the plugin is to quickly get tasks into org mode from my smart phone. I plan to support getting tasks out of org mode into the app, but only in a limited kind of way.
The plugin reads all your rtm lists and adds headlines for each one of them. Each task in a list gets an org-mode sub-headline.
Simply add the plugin to your load-path (it’s not on (m)elpa yet), then do M-x org-rtm-import. It will give instructions on how to retrieve the API key. You only have to do that step once.
The plugin will import the data to ~/rtm.org by default (a buffer which is not saved by default, so you can just refile your stuff and kill the buffer; no file is created). Use M-x customize-group for org-rtm to customize the file name.
If org-complete-after-import is t, org-rtm will complete all imported tasks.
Notes, due dates and urls are supported. However, there are:
- no repeaters
- no tags
- no contacts
- no estimates
- no location
- no postponed
- no priorities
I think most of those could easily be added, but I’m just covering my use-cases at the moment, so drop me a note if you’d like some of those features as well.
I’m building upon rtm.el by Friedrich Delgado Friedrichs which is partly built upon org-rtm by Avdi Grimm. Thanks to you guys for laying the foundation!
