Hi guys,
my workflow during daily work is like this:
In every project I’m working on, I have one obsidian-project-note, which is split in two sections:
- Section1: 2 dataviews, one for my milestones in that project and one for my todos in that project
- Section2: a protocol, in which I log all calls and meetings, out of which my “todos” and “milestones” result. So during a call, I quickly want to have the opportuniy to create “todos” and “milestones”, which should automatically appear in the two dataview-queries at the begining of that obsidian-project-note
To create my “todos” and “milestones” I use tasks, like this:
Strg+return => Checkbox, and after the Checkbox I write a short note to the topic of the “todo” or the “milestone”.
The difference between a “todo” and a “milestone” is in my convention:
- milestones have 2 fields, [from:: ] and [to:: ], and the hashtag #ms
- todos have just 1 field [to:: ] and no hashtag
and this is the code I use:
for the Milestones:
TABLE WITHOUT ID
Tasks.from AS "from ",
Tasks.to AS "to ",
regexreplace(Tasks.text, "\[.*$", "") AS Milestone,
Tasks.link AS "date milestone created"
FROM #ms
WHERE file.tasks FLATTEN file.tasks AS Tasks
WHERE !Tasks.completed
WHERE file.name = this.file.name
SORT Tasks.to DESC
for the todos:
TABLE WITHOUT ID
Tasks.to AS "to ",
regexreplace(Tasks.text, "\[.*$", "") AS Todo,
Tasks.an AS "@ ",
Tasks.link AS "link"
FROM !#ms
WHERE file.tasks FLATTEN file.tasks AS Tasks
WHERE !Tasks.completed
WHERE file.name = this.file.name
SORT Tasks.due ASC
Problem:
the hashtag #ms seems to be a hashtag, which is assigned to the whole obsidian-project-note, not just only to that task. So if I once use the hashtag #ms in one note, there won’t appear any todos in my dataview-query - at least, that’s my explanation, why I don’t see any…
So my question to you is:
Is there a possibility to use explicit task-hashtags? … for example as “file.tasks.tags” in my query?
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Silias
