# kanban-tui
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## About
|
||||
|
||||
kanban-tui is a lightweight, minimalist, terminal-based [Kanban](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban_board) tool built in
|
||||
Rust. Keybindings are vim-like, making it pretty fast to navigate and handle
|
||||
tasks. Currently it's not that feature-rich, but it provides all the essential
|
||||
functionality you need to manage tasks in the classic Kanban way.
|
||||
|
||||
It uses [ratatui](https://crates.io/crates/ratatui) for the TUI interface rendering and [rusqlite](https://crates.io/crates/rusqlite) for data
|
||||
persistence. Both awesome crates to work with.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
Decided to make kanban-tui to work on a non-trivial Rust application. I enjoy
|
||||
TUIs for their simplicity and efficiency. I don't really plan on using this, as
|
||||
I'm an [org](https://orgmode.org/) person myself, but if someone actually decides they like this level
|
||||
of minimalism, then I might consider working on it more.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
|
||||
- Terminal-based: Enjoy the simplicity and speed of a text-based interface
|
||||
- Vim-like keybindings: For those who have `hjkl` burned into their skull
|
||||
- SQLite backed: Overkill maybe? At least I like SQL
|
||||
- No bloat: Just create a task and move it around
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

|

|
||||
## Building and Installing
|
||||
|
||||
To build and install kanban-tui, follow these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
- Install Rust: If you don't have Rust installed, you can get it from [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).
|
||||
- Clone this repository, cd into it
|
||||
- Build the project: `cargo build --release`
|
||||
- The built binary can be found in `target/release/kanban-tui`
|
||||
- Optionally, you can move the binary to a directory in your `$PATH` for easier
|
||||
access.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to run `kanban-tui` from the root of your project so it can
|
||||
pick up the project's name. This automatically creates a SQLite database there
|
||||
named `kanban.db`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you prefer a different name for the database file, you can specify the file
|
||||
name when running the app, like `kanban-tui todos.kanban` as an example.
|
||||
|
||||
Once open, start creating tasks, then move them across columns to track their
|
||||
status - from "To Do", through "In Progress", to "Done". All task and navigation
|
||||
operations are performed through simple keybindings.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Keybindings
|
||||
|
||||
- Quit: `q`
|
||||
- Navigation: `hjkl`
|
||||
- Move Task: `HJKL`
|
||||
- New Task: `n`
|
||||
- Edit Task: `e`
|
||||
- Cycle Form Fields: `Tab`
|
||||
- Column Top: `g`
|
||||
- Column Bottom: `G`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Potential Future Features
|
||||
|
||||
- Timestamps for tasks (created, moved, completed)
|
||||
- Customizable column (name, amount, etc;)
|
||||
- More project stats (velocity, avg time to complete)
|
||||
- Column visibility toggle (hide "Ideas")
|
||||
- Attach images (using [Kitty Term Image Protocol](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/graphics-protocol/))
|
||||
- Read from other backends (Trello, Jira, etc;)
|
||||
- Copy task
|
||||
- Reports
|
||||
- Export to other formats
|
||||

||||

||||
## Acknolwedgements
|
||||
|
||||
[Karrq](https://github.com/Karrq) was nice enough to provide some help from time to time and even
|
||||
contributed a handy little macro.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Contributions
|
||||
|
||||
While the project is primarily developed to practice Rust, if for some reason
|
||||
you like this and want to contribute, open an issue and we can discuss whatever.
