Tags

Wdid has an automatic tag-parsing system. By using correctly structured tags into your item data, wdid will be able to parse them out and filter using them, as well as display them nicely.

$ wdid add "go with @tanya to get #groceries. #home"
⇒ ok0jba -- Sun, 10 Nov 2019 14:35:01
Tags: [@tanya #groceries #home]
Data:
go with @tanya to get #groceries. #home

In this example, we added an item with three tags - one prefixed by @, the others by #. Wdid will recognize either as a tag - they don't convey any special different meaning - though I find using the @ prefix to denote people is useful.

Wdid parsed these out and will display them in the show output as well as the list.

- Sun Nov 10
⇒ dewjba     remember the milk
⇒ ok0jba     go with @tanya to get #groceries. #home [@tanya #groceries #home]

When referring to tags when listing in other places, use the full tag name, prefix included. E.g. #home or @tanya. Not home or tanya.

Tag Colors

Each tag gets assigned a unique colour that will propagate throughout the system.

List Tags

We can use the tag list command to show all tags we've created so far (not which items were tagged, but the tags themselves).

$ wdid tag-ls
@josler
#pr
#meeting

You can search for items by tag with our advanced listing filter language.
