Description
The Taskserver is a lightweight, secure server providing multi-user, multi-client access to task data. This allows true syncing between desktop and mobile clients.
Users want task list access from multiple devices running software of differing sophistication levels to synchronize data seamlessly. Synchronization requires the ability to exchange transactions between devices that may not have continuous connectivity, and may not have feature parity.
The Taskserver provides this and builds a framework to go several steps beyond merely synchronizing data.
Installation Instructions
Copy the repofile to /etc/yum.repos.d/ on your your_server and:
# Install taskd from this copr
yum install taskd
# Generate ca, server and client keys
su - taskd
cd /etc/pki/taskd
./generate
# Set up an organization and user
taskd add org ORGNAME --data /var/lib/taskd
taskd add user ORGNAME USERNAME --data /var/lib/taskd
exit # to bail on the taskd user.
This will print out a key that you need to save. It might look something like this: New user key: b981dda6-8f6d-4610-90f2-a34e593e270f
# Open a firewall port
firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=taskd
# Start taskd
systemctl start taskd
On your your_client, install taskwarrior from the Fedora repos as usual. Then, copy down the client certificates that were conveniently generated on your server:
scp your_server:/etc/pki/taskd/client.\*.pem ~/.task/.
Configure your taskwarrior client to talk to your_server. Add the following to your local ~/.taskrc:
taskd.server=your_server:6544
taskd.credentials=ORGNAME/USERNAME/USER_KEY
taskd.certificate=/home/USERNAME/.task/client.cert.pem
taskd.key=/home/USERNAME/.task/client.key.pem
taskd.trust=yes
On your local client, try it out:
task sync initialize
task sync
