Toodles scrapes your entire repository for TODO entries and organizes them so you can manage your project directly from the code. View, filter, sort, and edit your TODO's with an easy to use web application. When you make changes via toodles, the edits will be applied directly the TODO entries in your code. When you're done, commit and push your changes to share them with your team!
Specify details about your TODO's so that you can filter and sort them with
ease! Specify details within parenthesis and separate with the |
delimeter.
# TODO(assignee|p=1|keys=vals|#tags)
The key p=<integer>
will be interpreted as a priority number
Use arbitrary key value pairs <key>=<value>|<key2>=<value2>|...
and design any
organization scheme you wish! A good use for this is to enter dates of deadlines
for TODO's that you can sort on in Toodles
A detail starting with #
, eg #bug|#techdebt|#database|...
will be interpreted as
a tag, which can be used to label and group your TODO's.
Assign your TODO's to someone. Any plain word that will be interpreted as an assignee.
# TODO(bob) - something we need to do later
You can configure toodles by putting a .toodles.yaml
file in the root of your
project. See this repo's .toodles.yaml
for the full configuration spec.
Currently via config you can:
- Set files to ignore via a list of regular expressions
- Specify your own flags to scan for other than the built-ins (TODO, FIXME, XXX)
Ignore as many files as you can! Large autogenerated files will slow Toodles
down quite a bit. Check the output of the server to see any files/folders that
may be causing slowness for your repo and add them to the ignore
section your
.toodles.yaml
If the performance of Toodles is not good enough for your use
case, please open an issue.
These languages will be scanned for any TODO's:
- C/C++
- C#
- CSS/SASS
- Elixir
- Erlang
- Go
- Haskell
- HTML
- Java
- Javascript
- Kotlin
- Lua
- Objective-C
- PHP
- Plaintext files (
*.txt
) - Protobuf
- Python
- React Javascript (JSX)
- Ruby
- Rust
- Scala
- Shell / Bash
- Swift
- Typescript
- Vue (scripts only)
- Yaml
Submit a PR if you'd like a language to be added. There will eventually be support for this to be user configurable
You can run a pre-built toodles for your current directory via docker:
# execute toodles for the directory you are currently in:
$ docker run -it -v $(pwd):/repo -p 9001:9001 docker.avi.press/aviaviavi/toodles
Just mount your project into the container's /repo
and direct a port of your
choice to the container's 9001
.
Toodles builds with stack. Just a stack build
should do it. If you'd like to build toodles without cloning the source,
you can have stack build toodles with stack install --resolver=lts-12.14 toodles
!
For convenience this repository also provides a Dockerfile
to automatically
build toodles.
# to build container run:
$ cd /path/to/toodles/repo
$ docker build -t toodles Dockerfile.dev .
# afterwards you can run the following command to execute toodles for the
# directory you are currently in:
$ docker run -it -v $(pwd):/repo -p 9001:9001 toodles
Invoking toodles
with no arguments will treat the current directory as the
project root and will start a server on port 9001. You can set these with the
-d
and -p
flags, respectively.
# $ toodles -d <root directory of your project> -p <port to run server>
# for more info run:
# $ toodles --help
$ toodles -d /path/to/your/project -p 9001
# or simply
$ toodles
