Better experience for filtering open tasks

[apraga]

Hi,

As a taskwarrior user, I would like to be able to filter opened tasks. My use case is to search by context or projects. tasklite open does not allow that (I think) so one would have to resort to queries.
Those are not super straigthforward (see my issue #106 ) and a bit lengthy to type.

Do you have any plan for the open command ? I understand it's not the scope of the project and having a better search by state would alreadly be much better !

Thanks,

I extended the open command in 3be80d2!

You now can add a filter expression like tl open +chore or tl open due:2025-08-01.

Does this solve it for you?

I was able to build the previous HEAD at some point. Thanks!

Ah, maybe the problem is system-ghc: true in the stack.yaml. If you remove it, does that fix it?

[apraga]

It does fix it, thanks !
This new version is way much better and closer to taskwarrior :)
I have tested with single and combined tags, and with due date. It looks good. A small note : due date without a time seems to be at midnight on this date. So due:2025-06-01 will not show tasks due on the first of June at 12:00 for example. A small note into documentation about date management would be awesome though.

[ad-si]

Great!
Good point, I'll add some documentation about dates.
