Only return available actions or Perspectives

[ijoelanderson]

Just installed ofexport.

Three questions:
Is there any way to output only tasks that are available (or alternatively, exclude completed tasks)?

Is there any way to output the tasks that would be included in a Perspective?

Is there a way to only include the task name and due date in the output? (no notes, no, defer date, etc)

Hi:

The 2nd to last example here shows how you can exclude a task with a "done" date set (i.e. one that has been completed).

Currently there's no support for perspectives, I couldn't work hot how they were stored in the database.

There are a variety of templates to choose from. If you look at the XXX-lite templates and compare them to the normal ones you can see it's quite easy to remove fields you don't want. One of the existing ones will probably provide a good starting point.

Thanks, both of your responses resolved my issue (I had already looked at the example page you linked too, I just missed it last night).

New question. When I went to try this out today, terminal gave me an error when I tried to run of export:
-bash: ofexport: command not found

I ran "bash install.sh" again to resolve the issue, but why would I have to re-run the installer between terminal sessions?

I'm on 10.9

It sounds like the ofexport bin directory is not on your path.

There was a point in the install where it suggested you run the following:

cat example-bashrc >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc

This should permanently add the correct entry to your path.

if you view the '.bashrc' file in your home you should see some ofexport stuff at the bottom.
