I’ve just finished employing Tasker for Android Notifications for selected tasks. In my case it’s those with status TODO, DOING or NOW and tag #ACTIONABLE. Tasker scans my journals folder on my Android phone looking for those and if it finds any it creates a permanent Notification with the task.
EDIT: After I removed some debug steps, the first GOTO got messed up and should be now 17 (End If). You can also delete 18, that was a debug step.
I’m not sure if it will create duplicates, if it runs i.e. every 8 hours and finds the same tasks again. It doesn’t do duplicates when I run it repeatedly manually.
The tasker procedure so far does not remove the notification automatically, when the task is finished in LogSeq (not sure if I need it).
Any improvements appreciated.
It would be cool to do it in native LogSeq, but to my best understanding, extending that mobile application is not possible. No plugins, no python scripts,… (?)
This is so cool! Unfortunately Tasker is not open source and I am hesistant because of that. But with that info it’s become even more tempting now!
I guess I’ll just have to wait for Logseq to implement reminders or expandability to the app aswell.
You’re absolutely right, Tasker is not Open Source. I wanted, but forgot to mention it. I like the idea of Tasker, but the inteface is quite weird and in many ways very unintuitive. Technically, it would be easy to write the procedure in Python, if not for all the Android interfaces one needs to deal with. But I’m sure in time this will get done. Perhaps I can write a native add-on app to Android to interact with LogSeq, at some point.
By the way, I use this procedure specifically for tasks, that I tend to procrastinate. So I mark them with #ACTIONABLE tag and then they appear and stick in my phone notifications. I have a custom workflow page to display all other tasks, which I keep in LogSeq’s right panel. It works for me perfectly and this procedure for “actionable” tasks was the last missing piece
