MMM-Todoist - Your todoist tasks on your mirror

[Sunburned]

So the plot thickens. I have a cron job that restarts my mirror at 2am every day. I get home from work today and my mirror shows the 2 test entries I made when setting up my new todoist account, but they will not update. So those entries will not be removed and new entries will not be added, even when restarting the mirror.

Do those two entries have due dates associated? Mine did some weird things until I assigned due dates to each entry… and subsequently added tkotz8105’s fetcher fix.

@Sunburned I find that sometimes happens as well… some changes I make (deletions, additions, mods) don’t make it to the mirror. I do not know why that is happening and have not looked in any detail on it. When you say that you restart the Mirror at 2 am… is it a system reboot? I do the same and when it all starts back up… the tasks are there and properly sorted.

Thanks for the responses everyone.

Yep the entries all had due dates, and I also did the fetcher fix.

2am is a full system reboot of the raspberry pie that then restarts the mirror.

So finally progress. I noticed that when the mirror was starting i was getting that EADRINUSE :::8080 error. I dug around a bit and removed some old modules that I either didn’t want anymore or decided not to use and flushed the PM2 logs, no more error on loading and todoist is working.

The only issue now is the same thing that used to happen with wunderlist. If i add items to the list, they get added fine. If i remove them they do not come off. But if I remove something and add something else the removed item will be removed when the new item appears.

hey guys,

just a short question is it possible to just show up the Tasks of Today or the next seven days or does only “One” list in the Module work right now?

@tidus5 Looks nice! Could you please share your code? :)

Hello,

I can’t see my entrys, but for two weeks as was functional.

My list is now only empty

[tkotz8621]

Mine too. I wonder if Todoist API was changed. I was planning to look at it but unfortunately it won’t be until the weekend.

I have my make a new api , but it is not working too.

Has anyone solved this yet? I was unable to get Wunderlist to work (installed both regular and enhanced - would never show more than the heading title) and now I can’t get Todoist to work. All settings are correct - I’ve updated the List ID in the MMM-todoist.js file in addition to the config.js file. I also assigned deadlines to everything just to make sure that wasn’t an issue. Here’s my section of config file:

		{
			module: "MMM-Todoist",
		position: "top_center",	// This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
		header: "ToDo List", // This is optional
		config: { // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
          	accessToken: "XXXXXXXXXX",
			maximumEntries: 60,
			interval: 60,
//			lists: ["XXXXXXXXX"],
			fade: false,
			}

		},

I’d really like ANY todo list to work on the mirror. I appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks!

Follow-up question - I’ve been trying to put all the config options in both the MMM-Todoist file and the config.js file (commenting them on and off as needed) but it’s not working. Is there a way for me to find a LOG of what Todoist is responding with so I know if it’s working? I’m a relative beginner but am hoping there’s a place for me to look and diagnose what’s not working.

[tkotz8621]

@jsp196 A possible reason for your tasks not displaying is if you have any tasks with no due dates, there is a known bug in MMM-Todoist that will not display any of the tasks. I have a fork at https://github.com/tkotz8105/MMM-Todoist that corrects the bug. I hope it solves your issue.

[jsp196]

@tkotz8621 Thanks. I had tried that but I just went through and deleted all the MMM-Todoist files, started over with your fork and now it works.

One other question - if I want to change the color of this module, is the CSS entry .module.MMM-Todoist? And has anyone had any luck with it working in custom.css or does it need to go into main.css?

Thanks!

Have anyone added a feature where it shows duedate?

[tkotz8621]

@Lange Good idea… I thought about looking to adding it as an option set in config file. It may be a few weeks before I can maybe start to take a look at it.

[djsunrise19]

I want to extend the module a little bit:

• Project Name as header
• Project color in front of the name / the todos
• reminder icon behind the todo (due date like the discussion above)

I tried a few things (from @tidus5 within the fetcher). But I can’t get it to work. Any hints / ideas?

@djsunrise19 Hello

i’m on holiday. Can send you the files when i’m back. you need to change the fetcher indeed.

Have a nice day
