Adding tasks from Ruby or YAML
 

Encouraged by Andy Schott's Safari to OmniFocus AppleScript example, I wrote a command line Ruby program to import tasks defined in YAML files.

For example:

% cat tasks.yml
---
- context: Administriva
due date: 2010-12-24
name: Blossom 2
note: Cherry 2
project: Auto
% of-import-yaml tasks.yml

Importing tasks seems to be quite a common request here, so I thought I'd post this in case other people find it useful even though it's very rough and ready code.

Good piece of illustrative code - thank you !

Thanks much for this! My source was CSV instead of YAML so I wrote some Python code to transform it. I posted it here in case it's useful to anyone: [url]http://forums.omnigroup.com/showthread.php?p=88934#post88934[/url]
