Integration

Tracks kann mit verschiedenen Werkzeugen zusammenarbeiten... was immer Sie brauchen, um Ihre Aufgaben zu erledigen! Auf dieser Seite finden Sie Informationen, um einige dieser Werkzeuge einzurichten. Diese Beispiele sind nicht unbedingt auf Ihre Umgebung anwendbar oder bedürfen mehr technisches Wissen als andere. Weitere Informationen finden Sie in der <%= link_to "Entwickler Documentation der Tracks' REST API", url_for(:action => 'rest_api') %> (englisch).

Eine Aktion mit Applescript hinzufügen

Dieses Beispiel-Script zeigt einen Dialog, welcher nach einer Beschreibung fragt und die Aufgabe in einem festen Kontext anlegt.

1. Wählen Sie den Kontext, für welchen die Aktion erstellt werden soll: <%= options_from_collection_for_select(current_user.contexts, "id", "name", current_user.contexts.first.id) %>
2. Kopieren Sie das AppleScript in die Zwischenablage.
   <%= render :partial => 'applescript1', :locals => { :context => current_user.contexts.first } %>
3. Öffnen Sie den Script Editor und fügen die Daten in ein neues Script ein.
4. Kompilieren und speichern Sie das Script, um es bei Bedarf einzusetzen.

Sie haben noch keinen Kontext angelegt. Dieses Script ist automatisch verfügbar, sobald Sie Ihren ersten Kontext angelegt haben.

Add an Action with Applescript based on the currently selected Email in Mail.app

This script takes the sender and subject of the selected email(s) in Mail and creates a new action for each one, with the description, "Email [sender] about [subject]". The description gets truncated to 100 characters (the validation limit for the field) if it is longer than that. It also has Growl notifications if you have Growl installed.

1. Choose the context you want to add actions to: <%= options_from_collection_for_select(current_user.contexts, "id", "name", current_user.contexts.first.id) %>
2. Copy the Applescript below to the clipboard.
   <%= render :partial => 'applescript2', :locals => { :context => current_user.contexts.first } %>
3. Open Script Editor and paste the script into a new document.
4. Compile and save the script to the ~/Library/Scriipts/Mail Scripts directory.
5. For more information on using AppleScript with Mail.app, see this overview.

You do not have any context yet. The script will be available after you add your first context

Add Actions with Quicksilver and Applescript

This integration will allow you to add actions to Tracks via Quicksilver.

1. Choose the context you want to add actions to: <%= options_from_collection_for_select(current_user.contexts, "id", "name", current_user.contexts.first.id) %>
2. Copy the Applescript below to the clipboard.
   <%= render :partial => 'quicksilver_applescript', :locals => { :context => current_user.contexts.first } %>
3. Open Script Editor and paste the script into a new document.
4. Compile and save the script as "Add to Tracks.scpt" in ~/Library/Application Support/Quicksilver/Actions/ (you may need to create the Actions directory)
5. Restart Quicksilver
6. Activate Quicksilver (Ctrl+Space by default)
7. Press "." to put quicksilver into text mode
8. Type the description of the next action you want to add
9. Press tab to switch to the action pane.
10. By typing or scrolling, choose the "Add to Tracks" action.

You do not have any context yet. The script will be available after you add your first context

Automatically Email Yourself Upcoming Actions

If you enter the following entry to your crontab, you will receive email every day around 5 AM with a list of the upcoming actions which are due within the next 7 days.

You can of course use other text <%= link_to 'feeds provided by Tracks', feeds_path %> -- why not email a list of next actions in a particular project to a group of colleagues who are working on the project?

Integrated email/SMS receiver

If Tracks is running on the same server as your mail server, you can use the integrated mail handler built into tracks. Steps to set it up:

• Go to <%= link_to t('layouts.navigation.preferences'), preferences_url %> and set your "<%= Preference.human_attribute_name('sms_email') %>" and "<%= Preference.human_attribute_name('sms_context') %>" for todos sent in via email (which could come from an SMS message)
• In sendmail/qmail/postfix/whatever, set up an email address alias to pipe messages to

  /PATH/TO/RUBY/ruby /PATH/TO/TRACKS/script/runner -e production 'MessageGateway.receive(STDIN.read)'

• Send an email to your newly configured address!

You can also use the Rich Todo API to send in tasks like "do laundry @ Home" or "Call Bill > project X". The subject of the message will fill description, context, and project, while the body will populate the tasks's note.

Add Tracks as a Google Gmail gadget

You can now manage your projects/actions inside Gmail using Tracks Gmail Gadget. Add Tracks Gmail gadget to the sidebar of Gmail and track your next actions or add new action without explicitly open new browser tab for Tracks. Steps to set it up:

• Sign in to Gmail and click Settings in the top right of your Gmail page. In Gmail setting page, click Labs tab
• Enable the "Add any gadget by URL" feature. You will find it at bottom of the list. Select Enable radio button and click Save Changes button.
• Now you can see Gadgets tab added to Gmail Settings. Go to the Gadgets tab
• Paste following link to the Add a gadget by its URL: and then click Add button:
  

  <%= integrations_url + "/google_gadget" %>
