ToDo List

---

wouldn’t it be great to have something like this in pimatic?

i have found it on github.
I have to say i haven’t the knowing of completing this…
So that the list is stored on the server and however you call the gui via phone, tablet, pc is always the same list…

at the moment it has for every device one list… hmm maybe someone else could solve/complete this…

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

ah here is the repository:
https://github.com/themaxsandelin/todo

edit:

• extract the repository on your webserver…
• usually path: `/home/pi/pimatic-app/node_modules/pimatic-mobile/frontend/public/todolist/
• then you could reach the site by `http//:yourIP:port/todolist/
• as you can see on the picture - it’s an iframe-device wich points to the adress above
• the list is responsive…

Hi,
is it also possible to synchronize the list from different devices? The item I add to the list by phone aren’t present in the list looked up by desktop browser on my computer and vice versa. Where are items from the different lists stored?

Thank you!

The List is stored in the local cache of your device, thats why you have for any device another list…

I would also have one list for all devices, but i didn’t find an solution yet.

@chris idk but how about using a text file instead of localstorage?

Write to txt, read from txt?

@Gleno0h thank you for your feedback.

😂 sounds very easy, but I’m right now overwhelmed. The video linked on the repository seems for me the most promising approach to get into Javascript programming. So I’ll give it a try and report my progress by time.

If you have some hints please let me know!

Thank you.

@Fabian i am actually becoming pretty good at making complicated things sound easy… However you should ignore my last post. Javascript isnt allowed to read from a file as a security meassure. If you want a todo list, which is cross-device available, you would need a database like mysql etc because you need something to store the data. “Localstorage” is a cookie system. There is also “ExtendedDB” which is almost the same idea.

Look for a todo list, maybe some fancy jquery stuff with mysql support and you are good to go

Oh wow, that seems a way to complicated for me. I thought it will be a bit easier…

But thank you for the information.
