So, a while ago, I was bored and wanted to add something to my todo list. So I created a URI for a todo namespace, and used it a couple times via the ^addturtle function built into the julie IRC bot.<\/p>\n
As usual with my todo methods, I totally forgot about it. Recently, I brought julie into a new IRC channel (#svg) and she met raxor, who immediately started going through her commandlist:<\/p>\n
13:15:07 < julie> Current commands: allRelated, olb, like-pubs, maintainer, webpage, drankbeerwith, like-same-music-as, alldayevents, depiction, based_near, icbm, keywords, country-population, kissed, todo, authorlinks, like-musicalwork, like-books, title, rsslinktitles, country-background, languages, nick, neighborhoods, commentContains, pub-address, schemaweb, desc, homepage, workplace, available, country-lowestPoint, knows, quote, school, sha, ljinterests, xfn_met, members, country-highestPoint, rangeOf, term, made, name, places, agentknows, dob, like-musicians, domainOf, modified, picOfA, newdepiction, rsstitles, weblog, contact, javaPlatform, biodob, mbox, dranklagerwith, namefromany, rsslinks.<\/p>\n
Wondering what todo was, he tried it, and got a todo item I had added long ago. I replied, “Oops. Never did that.” and went to work on investigating how I could make the todo feature more useful.<\/p>\n
In the process, I added a command to julie to add a todo item given a string:<\/p>\n
^todoItem document built ins<\/p>\n
Will add for me a todo item of the following turtle:
\n[a todo:Item; todo:owner [a foaf:Person; foaf:nick “crschmidt”]; dc:date “currenttime”; todo:text “text given”].<\/p>\n
It will then query the model for all existing todo items for me, and return that.<\/p>\n
Of course, this has problems: one of them being I have no way to mark a todo item as “done” once it is, and other similar things, so I will have to work a bit more on the interface to the todo list, but it’s interesting, and I thought maybe other people might want to know about it.<\/p>\n
I do need to start documenting the built ins like this: listeningTo is another example. They don’t have a ^commandinfo result, so I’ll have to improve julie’s built in help. <\/p>\n
