todoist-to-todotxt

Script to save tasks from Todoist to todo.txt format.

It provides support for export of limited set of Todoist's task fields, particularly:

• Priority
• Creation date
• Task name and description (merged together into one line)
• Project and section (merged together)
• Labels
• Due date
• Recurrence date
• Deadline date

Definitely NOT supported:

• Sub-tasks (all tasks exported in flat list, so there will be no tree-like structure)
• Completed tasks (it is possible to load only active tasks via API)
• Due time (only due date part saved)
• Comments
• Task order number
• Creator and assignee (assuming that it is used for personal todo-list)
• Reminders
• Location

Above list may be not complete, as there could be features in Todoist I'm not aware of.

Install

Use pipx or pip to install:

$ pipx install todoist-to-todotxt

$ pip install todoist-to-todotxt

Usage

Generate API token in your Todoist account Integrations settings.

Launch script with your API token (it will print tasks in todo.txt format to stdout):

$ todoist-to-todotxt <TODOIST-TOKEN>
