Taskomaly 0.1.0 Released

Taskomaly Logo

So, yeah. Taskomaly 0.1.0 (now 0.1.1 to deal with some things) is released, but I’m not too happy about it. It’s a very confining release. Here’s what you need to know, things that are implicit in the code, but not in the documentation.

  • Project names are converted into symbols for no real reason, but they lose their formatting in the process. “My IBM Project” will become :my_ibm_project, which will then get transformed into “My ibm project:” when the project name is formatted for a task file.
  • Comments are ignored and not parsed, and not brought into a formatted task file.

I think that’s it, but those are constricting things nonetheless. Tests pass, but only because I use special cases for these things. I know. I’m ashamed. I’m going to add better criteria for all the tests, and stick it out until the next release.

But basically anything that you want to do with papers, projects, and tasks is available for you. The README explains how to integrate it with Tasko.

Right. The whole thing needs an overhaul API wise. Already. I’m not sure if that’s a function of my using TDD naively, or if I’m just a bad programmer. Let’s say a little bit of both.

In any event, what there is, is well-documented. On top of that, if you have any issues or test cases you want to provide, throw them to me at my Lighthouse project for Taskomaly. Things like that would be wonderfully appreciated, since this is the sort of project that builds itself based on the most common habits of the people who use it.

Enjoy!

$ gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
$ sudo gem install ardekantur-taskomaly

If you get any version from GitHub that’s not 0.1.1, wait a couple minutes and try again. GitHub says it takes up to ten minutes to propagate a gem change, and I haven’t been keeping track of time.
