Elegant Microsoft To-Do inspired desktop and web app leveraging Gitlab's Issue Tracker in the backend
Gitlab Task Manager is a task manager application which hooks into Gitlab's Issue Tracker as the backend. Simply create a project on gitlab.com or your personal Gitlab instance, generate an API token and you are ready to start using GTM.
- Uses Gitlab labels to manage task lists
- Add tasks to "My Day"
- Star tasks to mark them as important
- Clear all completed tasks
- Leave comments on tasks that appear as comments in Gitlab
- Create new task lists from the app
- Assign task labels using hashtags (e.g. "Get Milk #shopping" )
- View all issues with a particular label by clicking on the label itself
As I work on many hobby projects at the same time, I felt the need to add comments to a task as a place to note down decisions, research and root cause analysis findings. I really liked the look and feel of Microsoft Todo and the functionality of Gitlab's issue tracker and wanted to combine them into one easy-to-use tool.
This application was bootstrapped using Create React App and is distributed as a Docker web application as well as an Electron Desktop App.
Copy src/config.sample.js to src/config.js and modify the Gitlab values.
yarn
yarn startIn the project directory, you can run:
- Run for development
yarn dev - Build the electron app
yarn dist(If this fails, runnpm installfirst.) - Build and publish Electron App
yarn dist - Run Electron build on Linux using Docker
bash dist.sh - Build docker image
yarn docker-build
You can deploy the webapplication using docker for use on mobile. Rename docker-compose.sample.yaml to docker-compose.yaml.
docker-compose up -d
This will build the image and deploy.
yarn start Runs the app in the development mode. Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
