A simplistic todo list manager written in Go

Tasks

Tasks is a simplistic Go webapp to manage tasks, I built this tool to manage tasks which I wanted to do, there are many good kanban style boards, but I felt they were a bit too heavyweight for my taste. Also I wanted to learn the Go webapp development.

How to use?

Via script: bash install.sh

This will generate the binary and set up the database. If you want, you can copy the binary and the public folder into a folder of your choice.

Manually:

1. go get github.com/thewhitetulip/Tasks
2. change dir to the respective folder and create the db file: cat schema.sql | sqlite3 tasks.db
3. run go build
4. ./Tasks
5. open localhost:8081

You can change the port in the config file

##Features

1. Add, update, delete task.
2. Search tasks, the query is highlighted in the search results page.
3. Github flavoured markdown, which enables us for using a task list, advanced syntax highlighting and much more.
4. Supports file upload, randomizes the file name, stores the user given filename in a db and works on the randomized file name for security reasons.
5. Priorities are assigned, High = 3, medium = 2 and low = 1, sorting is done on priority descending and created date ascending.
6. Categories are supported, you can add tasks to different categories.
7. Ability to hide a task from the timeline.
8. For a task list, shows 6 out of 8 tasks completed.
9. Single click install, just run the install.sh file.

Book

I am learning writing webapps with Go as I build this application, I took to writing an introductory book about building webapps in Go because I faced a lot of problems while learning how to write webapps in Go, it, the book strives to teach by practical examples. You are welcome to contribute to the book.
