Is it possible to get direct string output from the "create task modal" to other plugins like quickadd and templater?

[NikhilSaini38]

I am trying to implement a quick-add command that takes input for the task and captures it to today's daily note from anywhere in the vault. The problem is, When I trigger create task modal, it writes it directly to the active note even if I try to trigger it from quick-add capture in its format syntax.
Is there any way to get the desired result?

The Tasks plugin does not provide an API to access the modal at the moment.

I have written a user script for quickadd just in case someone else might want to implement the same.

module.exports = async (params) => {

    const GLOBALFILTER = "::";

    const { quickAddApi: { inputPrompt, suggester }, app } = params;
    const nldatesPlugin = app.plugins.getPlugin("nldates-obsidian");
    const getDateTime = async (header, placeholder, value, dateformat) => {
        const input = await inputPrompt(header, placeholder, value);
        if (input) {
            const date = nldatesPlugin.parse(input);
            if (date.formattedString === "Invalid date") return await getDateTime(header, placeholder, value, dateformat);
            else return date.moment.format(dateformat);
        }
        return "";
    };

    const task = await inputPrompt("Task description", "Water the garden...")
    const priority = await suggester(["None", "Low", "Medium", "High"], ["", " 🔽", " 🔼", " ⏫"]);
    const dueDate = await getDateTime("Task due on", "Leave empty to skip...", null, ' 📅 YYYY-MM-DD');
    const recurrence = await inputPrompt("Task recurrence", "Leave empty to skip....");
    const startDate = await getDateTime("Task starts on", "Leave empty to skip...", null, ' 🛫 YYYY-MM-DD');
    const scheduledDate = await getDateTime("Task scheduled on", "Leave empty to skip...", null, ' ⏳ YYYY-MM-DD');
    const reminderTime = await getDateTime("Remind on", "Leave empty to skip...", null, " ⏰ YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm");

    return `- [ ] ${GLOBALFILTER}${task ? task : ""}${priority}${reminderTime}${dueDate}${recurrence ? ' 🔁 ' + recurrence : ""}${startDate}${scheduledDate}`;
}

Please feel free to move this thread to discussions.
