Task¶

class knut.apis.Task(task_dir='~/.local/share/knut/tasks')¶

Interact with the task service.

This class extends the KnutAPI to handle the following requests:

All tasks are stored in tasks. Using load_tasks(), the dictionary can be filled with tasks that are stored in the local directory task_dir.

Here’s a small example on how to create a new task:

>>> from knut.apis import Task

>>> task_api = Task()

>>> # since no id is an emtpy string, my_task will be as a new task
>>> my_task = {
>>>     'assignee': 'John',
>>>     'author': 'Bob',
>>>     'body': 'Can you please get some cheese at the supermarket.',
>>>     'title': 'Buy cheese',
>>>     'id': ''
>>> }

>>> task_api.request_handler(Task.TASK_RESPONSE, my_task)

In the example is no directory specified. Therefore, the task would not be saved by the task service.

load_tasks(task_dir=None)¶

Load all tasks saved in the directory task_dir.

If task_dir is not provided, the tasks from the directory task_dir are loaded instead.

task_dir = None¶: The directory where the tasks are saved.

tasks = None¶

A dictionary with all back-ends.

The keys are the task identifier and the values are the corresponding Task objects.
