Tasks on waybar (arch linux, sway taskbar)

[brianbecsi]

Hi there! I like managing my calendar on Obsidian. I make use of the Tasks plugin (I will crosspost this idea on the Tasks git). I’m also a new Arch Linux user. As I’ve been playing around with Sway and Waybar, I would very much like to be able to pull my Obsidian tasks and put them on Waybar.

Considering I’m having issues even getting a calendar on Waybar, it’s doubtful I’ll be able to get it to happen. However, I’m going to give it a shot so if you have any knowledge in this direction, please send it my way - it must be easier on Linux than on Windows, at least, and Waybar is already highly configurable.

Again, I’ll post this on the Tasks git, as well as the Arch Linux forums. Thanks for reading.

Hi @brianbecsi, as a Mac and Windows user, I’m afraid I have no idea what you are talking about! 😆

It would be really good if you could provide some links and perhaps screenshots of what you are talking about, please. And ideally and indication of what might need to be done in Obsidian or Tasks I order to do what you requested.

This might give ideas as to how to help.

Also please provide a link to wherever you cross-posted it, so we can see any other answers there too.

Thanks in advance.

Good luck. I hope you get something that suits your needs.
