This plugin allows you to create and synchronize tasks with Microsoft To Do.

Installation

Adding plugin via BRAT

  1. Install BRAT from the Community Plugins in Obsidian
  2. Open the command palette and run the command BRAT: Add a beta plugin for testing (If you want the plugin version to be frozen, use the command BRAT: Add a beta plugin with frozen version based on a release tag.)
  3. Using LumosLovegood/obsidian-mstodo-sync, copy that into the modal that opens up
  4. Click on Add Plugin -- wait a few seconds and BRAT will tell you what is going on
  5. After BRAT confirms the installation, in Settings go to the Community plugins tab.
  6. Refresh the list of plugins
  7. Find obsidian-mstodo-sync you just installed and Enable it.

Updating plugin

  • Plugin can be updated using the command palette by running the command Check for updates to all beta plugins and UPDATE
  • Optionally, beta plugins can be configured to auto-update when starting Obsidian. This feature can be enabled in the **Obsidian42- BRAT" tab in settings.

Development

If you are working on the plugin, you can use the following commands to build and run the plugin:

npm install
npm run build

Releasing new releases

  • Update your manifest.json with your new version number, such as 1.0.1, and the minimum Obsidian version required for your latest release.
  • Update your versions.json file with "new-plugin-version": "minimum-obsidian-version" so older versions of Obsidian can download an older version of your plugin that's compatible.
  • Create new GitHub release using your new version number as the "Tag version". Use the exact version number, don't include a prefix v. See here for an example: https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-sample-plugin/releases
  • Upload the files manifest.json, main.js, styles.css as binary attachments. Note: The manifest.json file must be in two places, first the root path of your repository and also in the release.
  • Publish the release.

You can simplify the version bump process by running npm version patch, npm version minor or npm version major after updating minAppVersion manually in manifest.json. The command will bump version in manifest.json and package.json, and add the entry for the new version to versions.json
