Installation

Download

Download the latest stable release for use on your desktop or server.

OS X / macOS

brew install todo-txt

# For macOS on x86 CPU 
cp -n /usr/local/opt/todo-txt/todo.cfg ~/.todo.cfg

# For macOS on arm CPU
cp -n /opt/homebrew/opt/todo-txt/todo.cfg ~/.todo.cfg

Note: The -n flag for cp makes sure you do not overwrite an existing file.

Linux

From command line

make
make install
make test

NOTE: Makefile defaults to several default paths for installed files. Adjust to your system:

  • INSTALL_DIR: PATH for executables (default /usr/local/bin)
  • CONFIG_DIR: PATH for the todo.txt configuration template
  • BASH_COMPLETION: PATH for autocompletion scripts (default to /etc/bash_completion.d)
make install CONFIG_DIR=/etc INSTALL_DIR=/usr/bin BASH_COMPLETION=/usr/share/bash-completion/completions

Arch Linux (AUR)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/todotxt/

Configuration

No configuration is required; however, most users tweak the default settings (e.g. relocating the todo.txt directory to a subdirectory of the user's home directory, or onto a cloud drive (via the TODO_DIR variable)), modify the colors, add additional highlighting of projects, contexts, dates, and so on. A configuration template with a commented-out list of all available options is included. It is recommended to copy that template into one of the locations listed by todo.sh help on -d CONFIG_FILE, even if it is installed in the global configuration location (/etc/todo/config).

Usage

todo.sh [-fhpantvV] [-d todo_config] action [task_number] [task_description]

For example, to add a todo item, you can do:

todo.sh add "THING I NEED TO DO +project @context"
