Calendar tasks

Tasks are a part of the lino_welfare.modlib.cal plugin.

This page contains code snippets (lines starting with >>>), which are being tested during our development workflow. The following snippet initializes the demo project used throughout this page.

>>> from lino import startup
>>> startup('lino_welfare.projects.mathieu.settings.demo')
>>> from lino.api.doctest import *

My tasks

The My tasks table (lino_xl.lib.cal.MyTasks) is visible in the dashboard.

This table shows tasks that are due in the next 30 days. These edge values may get customized locally in the settings.py file. Our demo project sets mytasks_start_date to -30, which means that users don’t see tasks that are older than 30 days.

>>> print(dd.plugins.cal.mytasks_start_date)
None
>>> dd.plugins.cal.mytasks_end_date
30

For example Mélanie has one task in that table:

>>> rt.login('melanie').show(cal.MyTasks)
========== =============== ============================= ============================= =========================

Actually Mélanie has more than one open tasks. But they are all more than 30 days away in the future. If she manually sets end_date to blank then she sees them.

>>> pv = dict(end_date=None)
>>> rt.login('melanie').show(cal.MyTasks, param_values=pv, language="en")
