Config format

Config is YAML file .todostatrc like these:

scan_only:
  - lib
except:
  - lib/YxNews
file_masks:
  - *.pm
  - *.pl
scan:
  - TODO
  - HACK
  - FIXME
  - WTF
colors:
  TODO:  'blue bold'
  HACK:  'bold magenta'
  FIXME: 'red on_bright_yellow'
  WTF:   'bright_red on_black'

Options

• --list, --ls, -l – show full statistic
• --quiet, -q – quiet mode
• --color, -c – color mode
• --zsh, -z – zsh mode (useful for status line)
• --no-br, -n – avoid newline symbol at end
• --help, -h

zsh support

My oh-my-zsh theme config:

todo(){
  if [ -e .todostat.cache ]
  then
    if $(which todostat &> /dev/null)
    then
      out=$(echo $(todostat -z -c -q))
      if [ ! -z $out ]
      then
        echo "$out"
      fi
    fi
  fi
}

set_prompt () {
  export RPROMPT="$(todo)"
}

precmd() {
  title "zsh" "%m" "%55<...<%~"
  set_prompt
}

Some zsh colors supported, but it didn't tested heavy.

TODO

• improve colors support
• better bash support (?)
• tests
