Todoman is a simple, standards-based, CalDAV-based cli todo (aka: task) manager. Todos are stored into icalendar files, which means you can sync them via CalDAV using, for example, vdirsyncer.
Todoman usage is CLI based.
Todoman is now part of the pimutils project.
Key Features
- Listing, editing and creating todos.
- Todos are read from individual ics files from the configured directory. This matches the vdir specification.
- There’s support for the most common TODO features for now (summary, description, location, due date and priority) for now.
- Dedicated zsh completion function.
- Bash autocompletion.
- Today setting and flag to exclude todos that start in the future.
- Support for times in due dates with time_format setting.
- –humanize to show friendlier date times (eg: in 3 hours).
- Runs on any Unix-like OS. It’s been tested on GNU/Linux, BSD and macOS.
- Unsupported fields may not be shown but are never deleted or altered.

Todoman requires Python 3.4 or later. Installation of required libraries can be done via pip, or your OS’s package manager.
Todoman will not work with Python 2. Python 2 and Python 3 can coexist (and most distributions often ship both).
Recent versions also have experimental support for pypy3.
