A more GTD-like workflow for Todoist. Uses the REST API to add and remove a @next_action label from tasks.

This program looks at every list in your Todoist account. Any list that ends with _ or . is treated specially, and processed by NextAction.

Note that NextAction requires Todoist Premium to function properly, as labels are a premium feature.

• Python 2.7, Python 3.0+ is unsupported at the moment
• todoist-python package.

If a project or task ends with _, the child tasks will be treated as a priority queue and the most important will be labeled @next_action. Importance is determined by order in the list

If a project or task name ends with ., the child tasks will be treated as parallel @next_actions. The waterfall processing will be applied the same way as sequential lists - every parent task will be treated as sequential. This can be overridden by appending _ to the name of the parent task.

You can run NexAction from any system that supports Python.

NextAction will read your environment to retrieve your Todoist API key, so to run on a Linux/Mac OSX you can use the following commandline

python nextaction.py -a <API Key>
