rodo

An easy-to-use todo list program for people who live on the command line written in Racket.

Requirements

• GNU/Linux
• Racket 6.x

Setting up rodo

Using the binary

Download rodo by running:

git clone https://github.com/m455/rodo

Create a $PATH if you haven't done so already by running:

echo "export PATH=~/bin:\$PATH" >> .bashrc

Make the actual directory for your $PATH:

mkdir ~/bin/

Add the rodo binary to your $PATH folder (in your ~/bin/ folder if you followed the instructions above) and add the following contents to it:

chmod u+x ~/bin/rodo

Manually

Download rodo by running:

git clone https://github.com/m455/rodo

Create a $PATH if you haven't done so already by running:

echo "export PATH=~/bin:\$PATH" >> .bashrc

Make the actual directory for your $PATH:

mkdir ~/bin/

Create a file called rodo in your $PATH folder (in your ~/bin/ folder if you followed the instructions above) and add the following contents to it:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
racket ~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@"

For example, if you git cloned the project to your ~/downloads/ folder you would change the line:

racket ~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@"

to

racket ~/downloads/rodo/rodo.rkt "$@"

Make the rodo file executable:

chmod u+x ~/bin/rodo

Usage

The below examples assume that you have rodo set up in your $PATH folder. If you don't, you would simply go to the directory of the rodo.rkt file and use ./rodo <command> instead.

init

Initializes a file in ~/.rodo/todo-list by default

Example: rodo init

ls

Lists items from the list

Example: rodo ls

add

Adds an item to the list

Example: rodo add bread

Note: For multi-word items you will need to surround your item in double quotes like this: $ rodo add "go to the bank"

rm

Removes an item from the list

Example: rodo rm 1

Note: You may have to run rodo ls to see which number corresponds to which item to remove it.

Configuring rodo

Right now, the configurations can be found in the config.rkt file. Settings such at program name, path, and directory can be set here.
