I'm brand new to USENET so please bear with me. I'm writing a specialized to-do list app. I'm using Django but this is not a question about Django. It has to have recurring tasks set by the managers for the employees to then check off.
I've got pretty much everything in the app worked out, except for one thing: the repeating tasks. I want to have it so that the manager puts in a repeating task with a description and a repeat rule. This rule then generates simpler one-time tasks. These one-time tasks have a description, a time (a datetime.datetime object) and "completed" boolean. I've looked around and think I have these options: 1. Manually put it all together with another Django model that implements the repeat rules. 2. Do the same thing but use dateutil.rrule to help. 3. Use the icalendar (http://codespeak.net/icalendar/) module to access ICS files. 4. vObject (http://vobject.skyhouseconsulting.com/) to do the same. I think I want to use vObject because it uses dateutil and the management can easily manage tasks from a desktop app. Only thing is that I find vObject's documentation very cryptic and was wondering if anybody here could shed some light on how to use vObject. A simple "getting-started" tutorial or something similar would be nice. Thanks all! -Josh -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
