I have a kiosk for the family that displays various information - calendar, commute time, weather, etc. Has anyone integrated a ToDo/Task Management service. I’m not looking for anything complex - I’d just like to know what others are using.
Sorry, you can’t, i thought you mend you wanted an alternative to your current solution, with a “synced” .txt file … i.e that both your wife and you had HA-App on your phones.
With above card, and the shopping_list integration, you can make automations
The simplest way to use the shopping list with automations (e.g., when entering a zone with shops) is to create a notification that can be clicked to open the shopping list.
PS: you can use Card-Mod to style your card, i.e smaller rows etc … and automations like , " today the sun will shine between noon and 2pm, time for your Garden project"
EDIT: Thou i admit, it’s actually a very basic “shopping/todo list card/integration” , instead i would use.
Webpage_ Card, and in your case place your todo.txt file in HA, or a place accessible by HA, i.e. " url: /local/todo.txt"(thou you can’t edit a “separate txt-file” directly with a dash-button, unless with some extensive template)… or you could make your own cool todo/shopping list in HTML, requires some kind of db thou, or a reload/re-render function, to save updates to the file.
The shopping list is excellent. Only one downside: I only can create one list. So If you use it for shopping (like me), you can’t use another instance for todo
Yes, i also had an idea of several-lists, and/or i.e sections, and maybe even a Tap/link to external/internal “extensive/detailed” doc.
I only looked briefly at it’s structure in browsers-tools, as i didn’t find the source-code in GitHub, thou found an absolutely similar Card in “google” , among few others, so i guess this integration uses the homeassistant_db or some file to store the “settings/items” in. EDIT: or maybe it’s actually in the Card
So i guess an FR, or PR is the only way to evolve this particular integration/card.
I’m about to try to style it, i.e heights on Rows etc. with Card_Mod
But the other i showed, it will try to add i.e a click-button(column) for each row to “extra/detail” info, and as mention section, and/or options for several lists, i could try to use the HA “shopping_card” to build upon, so i had an example, to FR/PR, as i can’t see why/what in the integration that should “prevent” several lists.
From a “Card” perspective, it could just be a “selection” list, i.e Garden/Garage/Projects/Food, problem or point is , i don’t know whether it uses the db, or internal file to store the items and how, but i’ll figure it out when i have time
PS: I think it’s stored in the card(which is then re-rendered for each change applied to it, or maybe actually in the integration, as you dont seems to need the card
PS: It’s the integration, and the way it’s written it’s not “trivial” to get another list in
Some good ideas here, but considering how important having a ToDo list is for me, so far Home assistant hasn’t really been able to do what I want. All I want is to show a card with ToDo items on my dashboard without having to maintain 2 or more lists.
I’ve been looking for an integration with Notion.so as I use that for my ToDo lists/second brain, but I can’t seem to find that. Been trying out the Gtask integration lately, but that stopped working after some time and also been looking at some Zapier but nah.
Will try todoist now, hopefully that will help me.
I stumbled upon the same thing. My wife and I have been using Todoist for a while now, and I couldn’t find any working embeddable solutions for it, so I decided to write my own. Todoist has a very extensible API and should be easy to automated in relation to IFTTT and HA.
Several years later it is still proved very helpful for our household todos & chores! Best option for the purpose of the options I’ve tried
@DeCodeerHeer nice solution you have there!
To make it work nicer in home assistant I’d recommend to keep a local state to show while refreshing from the API, this way it’ll hopefully also feel a lot more native! (I’ll create an issue for it on the repo )
