Tickban

English | 日本語

Automatically collect tasks from across your entire Obsidian Vault and visualize/manage them in a Kanban board.

Motivation

I created Tickban because I wanted to manage tasks using a Kanban board even when using Obsidian in a messy, unstructured way.

You don't need to consolidate tasks into a single file. Whether it's in a daily log, a project note, or a random scratchpad, this plugin automatically finds [ ] task items scattered throughout your vault and aggregates them into a single, organized board.

Key Features

  • Vault-wide Task Extraction: Automatically extracts checkbox list items from specified folders and files (supports Glob patterns).
  • Automatic Status Mapping: Categorizes tasks into "TODO", "DOING", and "DONE" columns based on the following syntax:
    • [ ] -> TODO
    • [/] -> DOING
    • [x] -> DONE
  • Drag & Drop & Menu Operations: Update the status of checkboxes directly within your notes by dragging and dropping cards or using the card menu.
  • Tag Extraction & Display: Automatically recognizes #tag within task lines and displays them as badges on cards.
  • Card Menu: Click on a card to open a menu where you can:
    • Jump to the exact line in the note where the task is written.
    • Change the task status (TODO, DOING, DONE).
  • Flexible Filtering:
    • Narrow down extraction targets using Glob patterns (e.g., excluding specific folders).
    • Automatically hide completed tasks based on the file's last modified date.

Usage

  1. Enable the plugin.
  2. Open the board by clicking the ribbon icon (Kanban icon) in the sidebar, or by running Tickban: Open kanban from the command palette.
  3. If necessary, adjust Include glob and Exclude glob in the settings to define the scope of task collection.

Settings

  • Include glob: Pattern for files to include for task extraction (e.g., **/*.md).
  • Exclude glob: Pattern for files to exclude from extraction (e.g., Templates/**).
  • Show file path: Whether to display the file path on task cards.
  • Hide done tasks (days): Number of days after which completed tasks are hidden (set to 0 to always show).
