Just an idea: create also addon for Blender's "Python Console".[0]

That's an interesting thought. I suppose if it works from the Python REPL it'd work there. Will dig into that a bit when I can. Thanks for the feedback!

It seems the columns are hardcoded (todo, in-progress, done). Is it possible to create different columns from the configuration or would that require a code change?

kitplummer3• 6 years ago

They are hard-coded. I think they _could_ be made configurable, just managed as "strings" with in the code. If you're really interested please create an issue at the Github project.

is there particular reason why the commands take seemingly superfluous option thing; i.e. why `clikan promote --id [task id]` instead of just `clikan promote [task id]` etc?

probably me being dumb. IIRC the CLI library in play is Click, and it wasn't the most flexible things to work with - though infinitely better than parsing args manually. tis a good note though. will look into it.

Thanks for this. I've used kanban.bash [0] but I'm not married to it. I'll have to try clikan soon. I did make a slight modification to kanban.bash so that I could have a kanban board per directory/project [1].

Very nice looking! Didn't even know terminal-based kanban was a thing. A quick search turned up a couple of other [0] [1] similar looking projects (in addition to kanban.bash which was already mentioned)
