Is it possible to create a recurring task with the API? Looking at the JSON for a recurring task didn’t give me enough information to do this.

Hello Jared,

  Unfortunately, we didn't add open api for creating recurring tasks so far. May be a bit later. 
  May I ask you why do you need it? How are you going to use this api?

I am writing a command-line interface to Checkvist since I spend a lot of my time in a terminal. It would be nice to be able to add a recurring task without logging into the web interface.

 

For more background I am totally blind. While I have found several accessible task list programs for the iphone none of these programs offer cross platform support with a command-line client. The Checkvist mobile website is quite accessible on my iphone. Given this and the fact that the API looked simple to use I decided to write my own command-line client for use on my computer and to create a shortcut on my home screen directly to the mobile site on my iphone.

Hello Jared,

   Thanks a lot for the explanation.

   I'll try to squeeze the recurring tasks OpenAPI support into the next Checkvist update.

   All the best,

Hello Jared,

   The API for creating recurring tasks is available for testing at http://beta.checkvist.com
   The relevant heading on the api page is "Set repeating task information".

   If you have any questions regarding the usage please don't hesitate to ask.

   Kind regards,
