# pytodotxt

A tiny library to access `todo.txt`-like task lists.


## Installation

To install pytodotxt, you can follow these steps to clone the repository,
and install the program.

```bash
pip install pytodotxt
```

That’s all there is to do.


## Documentation

You can find the full documentation at <https://vonshednob.cc/pytodotxt/doc/>.


## Example usage

Here’s an example how to open a `todo.txt` file and print the description of all
tasks that are not marked as completed:

```python
import pytodotxt


todotxt = pytodotxt.TodoTxt('todo.txt')
todotxt.parse()

for task in todotxt.tasks:
    if not task.is_completed:
        print(task.description)
```


Here is how you add a new task to an existing `todo.txt` file:

```python
import datetime

import pytodotxt

todotxt = pytodotxt.TodoTxt('todo.txt')
todotxt.parse()

task = pytodotxt.Task()
task.parse('This is a new task')
task.creation_date = datetime.date.today()

todotxt.tasks.append(task)

todotxt.save()
```
