Data Storage
All data is stored in ~/.local/share/event-planner-pro/ (or the path set by EVENT_PLANNER_PRO_DIR or XDG_DATA_HOME):
- data.log — The main task list. Each line contains a date and the item text.
- history.log — An audit trail of every command executed, with timestamps.
You can customize the data directory by setting the EVENT_PLANNER_PRO_DIR environment variable:
export EVENT_PLANNER_PRO_DIR="$HOME/my-events"
Requirements
- Bash 4.0+ (uses
set -euo pipefail)
- coreutils —
date, wc, grep, cat
- No external dependencies, API keys, or network access required
- Works fully offline on any POSIX-compatible system
When to Use
- Wedding planning — Add all wedding tasks (venue booking, caterer selection, invitation mailing), set priorities, view today's checklist, and mark items done as you go.
- Corporate event coordination — Track conference logistics (speaker confirmations, AV setup, catering orders), use
today to see what needs attention right now, and week for the upcoming schedule.
- Birthday party preparation — Add decorations, cake order, guest list items; use
remind to set follow-ups for RSVPs and vendor confirmations.
- Daily task triage — Start each morning with
event-planner-pro today to see what's due, use priority to rank items, and done to clear them as you complete tasks.
- Post-event cleanup and review — After the event, run
stats to see how many items were tracked, export the full log for archiving, and clear completed items to start fresh for the next event.
Examples
event-planner-pro add "Book photographer — call Studio Lux by Friday"
event-planner-pro add "Confirm vegetarian menu options with caterer"
event-planner-pro priority "Book photographer" high
event-planner-pro today
event-planner-pro week
event-planner-pro remind "Send invitations" "next Monday"
event-planner-pro done "Book photographer"
event-planner-pro stats
event-planner-pro export > event-backup.txt
event-planner-pro clear
event-planner-pro list
Tips
- Use
event-planner-pro list to get a full dump of all tasks, then pipe to grep for filtering: event-planner-pro list | grep "caterer"
- Redirect
export output to a file for backups: event-planner-pro export > archive-2024.txt
- The
today command filters by the current date, so add items with the correct date context for best results.
- Combine with cron for daily reminders:
0 9 * * * event-planner-pro today | mail -s "Today's events" you@example.com
