app-misc/todoman-1.7.0.ebuild

Todoman is a simple, standards-based, cli todo (aka: task) manager. Todos are stored into icalendar files, which means you can sync them via CalDAV using, for example, vdirsyncer.

https://github.com/pimutils/todoman

The attached ebuilds works for me. It might be extended with a USE flag for click-repl, but there is no ebuild for that package yet.

"If you install click-repl, todoman gets a new command called repl, which lauches an interactive shell with tab-completion."

Thank you for the new ebuild. We will need someone who volunteers to maintain it.
Do you want to proxy maintain this  package?
I suggest to use EAPI=6 and upload it to your favourite git repository until we found a maintainer.

Sure, why not. As it seems I am going to use it, I could just take care of it.

same ebuild as for 1.7.0, just the name changed but added a USE flag for repl, so it can depend on dev-python/click-repl (see bug #607076) to provide an interactive shell.

I asked the owner of the "xmw" layman/xmw repo to include the ebuild, but he probably forgot.

[Comment 4 Jonas Stein 2017-01-24 14:13:48 UTC]

* EAPI=6
* please test your ebuild with repoman -d full
* DESCRIPTION is not clear to me. 
DESCRIPTION="Command line interface that manages personal tasks in .iCal files" (still not perfect...)

Did not know about repoman. The original description was from upstream.

update ebuild. new test dependencies to flake8-import-order, which requires 3 new ebuilds. Maybe, they can be skipped.

dev-python/flake8-import-order (bug #608456). this in turn depends on
dev-python/pylama (bug #556356) which depends on
dev-python/pydocstyle (bug #556358)

[Comment 7 Kristian 2017-02-20 09:53:44 UTC]

latest release 2.1.0 works with renamed 2.0.2 ebuild.

After a review of attachment 531322 [details] (todoman-3.4.0.ebuild)

I have the following comments:

- Any reason for not using the given description? (“A simple CalDav-based todo manager”)
- You can also add bash-completion with bash-completion-r1 eclass
- pytest-runner should be in ``test? ( … )``
- update the copyright date (2018 instead of 2016) and remove $Id$
- The license is ISC, not MIT
- setup.py and their CI tests also says it should be working with python 3.6

Also if needed I can do a Pull Request with my changes and a ebuild for click-repl.

No, probably never looked at it again after first submitting this bug.

Well, that only changed recently.

I am using a non public git repository. But if you have done these changes, I will appreciate you posting the corrected ebuild. No need to replicate work already done. Thanks for the improvements.

updated ebuild for 3.5.0 release. changed dependencies >=dev-python/icalendar-4.0.3, click-7* and added python 3.7 support.

[Comment 17 Christopher Head 2020-12-18 23:15:33 UTC]

Rebased the PR, bumped to 3.9.0, used bash-completion-r1.eclass, changed DISTUTILS_USE_SETUPTOOLS to bdepend as I cannot find any reference to pkg_resources, distutils, or setuptools outside of setup.py, fixed dependency on dev-python/click to prohibit v8.

> changed DISTUTILS_USE_SETUPTOOLS to bdepend as I cannot find any reference to pkg_resources, distutils, or setuptools outside of setup.py

This was a mistake as it uses entry_points, and has been undone.
