Basic Duplication of a Todoist Project

Steps

script

let strProjectTemplate = "General";
let strProjectNew = "Packing";

script

//Dump template project into a variable

let strProjectTemp = "";

let mapIds = (arr, key, valKey) => {
	let result = {};
	arr.forEach(o => {
		result[o[key]] = o[valKey];
	})
	return result;
}

let f = () => {
	// create Todoist object and load projects
	let todoist = Todoist.create();
	let projects = todoist.getProjects();
	
	if (!projects) { 
		console.log("Unable to retreive data from Todoist.");
		return false; 
	}

	// add projects
	let projectLookup = mapIds(projects, "name", "id");
	let projectID = projectLookup[strProjectTemplate];

	let tasks = todoist.getTasks({
		"project_id": projectID
	});
	if (!tasks) { 
		alert("No tasks to import.");
		return false;
	}
	
	let content = [];
	content.push("## " + strProjectTemplate);
	content.push("");
	
	for (let task of tasks) {
		content.push("- " + task.content);
	}

	strProjectTemp = content.join("\n");
	return true;
}

if (!f()) {
	context.fail();
}

script

//Create a new project based on the project variable (strProjectTemp) content


//Initialise
let todoist = Todoist.create();
let ctErrors = 0;

//Create the project
todoist.createProject({"name" : strProjectNew});

//Process Lines
let lines = strProjectTemp.split("\n");
for (let line of lines) {
	if (line.length > 0 && !line.startsWith("#")) {
		let success = todoist.quickAdd(line + " #" + strProjectNew);
		if (success) {
			console.log("Todoist task created: " + line);
		}
		else {
			ctErrors++;
			console.log("Todoist error: " + todoist.lastError);
		}
	}
}

if (ctErrors > 0) {
