# CLI client for Vikunja

This is a simple CLI for Vikunja > [The todo app to organize your life.](https://vikunja.io/)

It provides a command line interface for adding, viewing and editing todo tasks on a Vikunja Server.
The goal is to support a command line based task workflow ~ similar to taskwarrior.

#### Breaking changes in vja 4.0

vja 4.0 supports (and requires) the most recent Vikunja API >= 0.24.0.
Use vja up to version 3.3.1 for compatibility with Vikunja API 0.23.0.

## Usage

```shell
vja --help
vja ls
```

(You will be prompted for your account on first usage and any time the access token expires,
see [Features.md](https://gitlab.com/ce72/vja/-/blob/main/Features.md#login))

**More user documentation is available on [Features.md](https://gitlab.com/ce72/vja/-/blob/main/Features.md)**

## Installation

- Install from pypi:
  ```shell
  python -m pip install --user vja
  vja --help
  ```
- Upgrade existing version:
  ```shell
  python -m pip install --user vja --upgrade
  ```

## Configuration

Before using vja you must provide a configuration.
An example can be found in [vja.rc](https://gitlab.com/ce72/vja/-/blob/main/.vjacli/vja.rc).

- Create a configuration file $HOME/.vjacli/vja.rc with ~ the following contents
  ```shell
  [application]
  frontend_url=https://try.vikunja.io/
  api_url=https://try.vikunja.io/api/v1
  ```
  (If you cloned from git, you may copy the folder .vjacli to your `$HOME` directory instead.)
- Adjust to your needs.
  `frontend_url` and `api_url` must point to your own Vikunja server.
  Especially, the api_url must be reachable from your client. This can be verified, for example,
  by `curl https://mydomain.com/api/v1/info`.

You may change the location of the configuration directory with an environment variable
like `VJA_CONFIGDIR=/not/my/home`

## Development

### Prepare python virtual environment

Python >= 3.8 is recommended. First create a local environment:

```shell
python -m venv ./venv
source venv/bin/activate
```

(That may be `source venv/Scripts/activate` on some windows machines.)

### Local build

#### Local development install

```shell
python -m pip install -r requirements_dev.txt
python -m pip install -e .
```

#### Run integration test

Start docker container for `vikunja/api:latest` and execute `pytest` against that server instance.

```shell
docker compose -f tests/docker-compose.yml up -d
VJA_CONFIGDIR=tests/.vjatest pytest
docker compose -f tests/docker-compose.yml down
```
