@strawberry-3.141 could have I guess but at the time I was onto others things…

So when I get home I’ll do that! Enjoying the sun here: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Galveston,+TX/@29.2187539,-95.2067404,10z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x863f59c8c4059259:0xe58b03c9b9eaecc1!8m2!3d29.3013479!4d-94.7976958

@cowboysdude @strawberry-3-141 I switched to the Wunderlist module that this was based on and encountered the same issue, but I fixed it by generating a new token from the API.

Maybe that would work for Todoist as well.

[cowboysdude]

@JoeSpencer Yes I did that with a weather module and that fixed that also… sometimes those things just happen :)

Hi,

I had the same problem, I don’t know if you’ve solved it yet but for me it turned out to be some simple mistakes.

I thought I had followed the instructions to the letter, but actually at first I hadn’t cloned the module into the modules folder, just into the mirror folder. After cursing my own stupidity for that I carried on a while but still couldn’t get it working.

I tried the tip for generating a new access token but that wasn’t it. I then realised that when I cloned the module (into the correct folder!) I missed the small but vital step of navigating into the new folder before carrying out npm install.

I don’t know if any of you have made mistakes as daft as mine, but I finally got it working so thought I’d let you know.

Hope it helps someone!

Yop,

I’m looking to add the reminder and priority level (with an icon) Has anyone did something like that with this module ?

in the fetcher i found where to add the var

	 for (var i = 0; i < JSON.parse(body).items.length; i++) {
		 if (JSON.parse(body).items[i].project_id == listID) {
			 items.push(JSON.parse(body).items[i].content);
			 items.push(JSON.parse(body).items[i].priority);	
			 items.push(JSON.parse(body).items[i].due_date_utc);	

but i dont know how to use the answer

[tidus5]

Yop,

i did it :-)

Thanks for this module. Dropped Wunderlist in favor of this via Alexa integration.

@tidus5 This looks awesome - how did you implement? I just got my basic Todoist module running today

[dinkybluebug245]

Im having some issues with this module. When I add items to my todoist - it appears in the module, but when I mark them as completed , or they are deleted - the items dont come off the module - unless I add a new item onto the list. At that point, they disappear, and the new item gets added.

Very odd.

Ive raised it as an issue here: https://github.com/cbrooker/MMM-Todoist/issues/3

Any ideas why this might be?

@dinkybluebug245 hi i added this module , when i add a item with Alexa voice , it gets added to inbox i could not able to get lists: [ 1234567890 ] number from the url

[onetwankyfive]

@shashank click inbox instead of today

I wanted to try to fix this module, but I have found that using the .ical export from todoist works great with official calendar module, so…

Hi, all,

Does anybody know how to sort this list? It adds new items at the bottom, so if there is no more room on the mirror, I can’t see them. I can’t figure out how to sort them on Todoist’s site easier, except alphabetically. I am using the “Alexa Shopping List” list in Todoist

Thanks

Hy, please can you post your working config for the Todoist module?
My Module is starting but the Todos are blank ;-)

Thank you

[svonbentzel]

i have figured out why the list is blank:

in MMM-Todoist.js is the default

Module.register("MMM-Todoist", {

 defaults: {
	maximumEntries: 10,
	lists: ["inbox"],
	interval: 60,
	fade: true,
	fadePoint: 0.25
 },

maybe a result of the fork from Wunderlist.

you can see that with pm2 logs

0|mm       | Create new todo fetcher for list: inbox - Interval: 60000

the added value in the config.js doesn’t accept.

so I write the correct list in MMM-Todoist.js

 defaults: {
	maximumEntries: 10,
	lists: ["198511455"],
	interval: 60,
	fade: true,
	fadePoint: 0.25

save and restart MM with pm2 restart mm

then look at pm2 logs

|mm       | Create new todo fetcher for list: 198511455 - Interval: 60000

tadaaaa ;-) the correct fetcher ^^

but why the config.js variable not in use — I don’t know ;-)

@svonbentzel
how does your config for this module look like?

[svonbentzel]

Hi,

{
				        module: 'MMM-Todoist',
				        position: 'bottom_center',  // This can be any of the regions. Best results in left or right regions.
				        header: 'Todoist', // This is optional
				        config: { // See 'Configuration options' for more information.
				            accessToken: 'c7xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxe3b54',
							//lists: ["edit in MMM-Todoist.js"],
				            maximumEntries: 10,
				            interval: 60,
				            fade: true,
				      }
				    },

this is my config.js

you must edit the /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Todois/MMM-Todoist.js

edit the list entry from list: [“inbox”] to [“1234567890”]

defaults: {
	maximumEntries: 10,
	lists: ["198511455"],
	interval: 60,
	fade: true,
	fadePoint: 0.25

Hi psm9… I’m fairly new to MagicMirror but I’ve been digging into the Todoist module to sort the list by due date. Did anyone ever answer your question? I didn’t see any responses to your sort question so I started digging into it and added code to the fetcher.js for MMM-Todoist.
I’ve got it working on my mirror and when I add something that is due today… it will put it in the proper sequence on the next refresh. My JS skills are limited so the code may be made more efficient but it works. I’ll contact the Todoist author to see if I can add it to the module.

P.S. I tried adding the code to this message but it did not take all 50 lines or so.

Hey guys,

Very sorry that I have been MIA. I’ve been really busy with work and haven’t been able to give this any attention. I see a number of bugs and improvements in the thread. If you could submit your improvements and changes as Pull Request to the github repo, I’ll merge them in and everyone can have them. If not, I’ll try to add them in soon.

Thanks,
Chris

Is this module working for people? I’ve tried this one, MMM-Wunderlist and MMM-Wunderlist-Enhanced. They all behave similar. Some times they load the list, sometimes they don’t. When I add an item on my PC, it doesn’t show up in MM until reboot. I see reports of issues like this across all three modules. Since they are based on MMM-Wunderlist, maybe there is a problem in the base code?

Here’s the log
