todoRtxt: An R Parser And Interaction Toolkit For todo.txt Files
todoRtxt.Rdtodo.txt files are flat (ascii) text files containing a series of tasks
complying to a format specified by Gina Trappani (see todotxt.org) that
enables decorating a to with priority, due date, and tags for sorting and
filtering.
The todoRtxt R package provides a parser for such files as
well as functions to add, update, delete, or cross out completed tasks.
A Shiny app is provided that provides a (semi) GUI for these operations as
well as an analytics engine for completed tasks.
Overview
A short section on how the package can be used.
Note that the design of the todo.txt specification revolves around a single (set of) file(s) without means for synchronization across devices. Given the proliferation of cloud storage, clients can use such a solution to enable synchronizing on the level of a file. Typically Dropbox is used.
