Use TaskWiki Anywhere

[shfattig]

Is there currently a way to configure TaskWiki such that it would track tasks in files outside of VimWiki? Especially since TaskWiki can handle markdown syntax, it would be awesome to decouple TaskWiki from VimWiki such that any markdown file in a user-specified directory can become a place to track Taskwarrior tasks.

If there is no current configuration, I'm willing to help implement. I've already forked the repo and begun exploring, but this is my first experience contributing to a vim plugin so I'm a bit slow! I'm decently familiar with basic vimscript though and Python is my day job, so if someone can point me in the right direction I'm confident to make the updates!

I guess the real question is - How much does TaskWiki rely on VimWiki for its functionality?

[shfattig]

After trying some things out, at least immediately it looks like applying loading the TaskWiki plugin based on a user-specified path or pattern may be easy enough, but the syntax work (concealing, etc) is pretty dependent on VimWiki-implemented syntax matches. Does this require a reimplementation? Can it be simplified?

Hi @shfattig any chance you've made later progress on this?

@yongli-abc thanks for checking in! No I have not made progress, but I did recently come across this project which may satisfy your (our) needs! I haven't given it any trial yet but intend to in the coming weeks!
