TaskBot

An automation tool that manages (recurring) tasks stored as issues in a Forgejo repository. It has two main purposes:

• Rescheduling recurring tasks as soon as they are completed.
• Reminding due tasks with batching at the beginning of the month or week.

Development

Create a .dev-environment.json file:

{
    "dev-token": "<forgejo-api-token>",
    "server-url": "https://git.example.com",
    "repo-with-owner": "owner/repo"
}

Then run:

RUST_LOG=debug cargo run

Deployment

TaskBot is meant to run in CI where it automatically attaches to the issues of the repository it is running from. It should run on a daily schedule.

For NixOS runners, you can check .forgejo/workflows/taskbot.yml and the associated taskbot.nix.
