Command to clear taskwarrior server?
During the debugging of this script https://github.com/a-t-0/PublicCodeLibrary/tree/master/AutomationAndSystems/Taskwarrior/CustomSort, I am trying to remove the task data from my taskd taskwarrior server.
There I am not aware of a taskwarrior forum and the https://botbot.me/freenode/taskwarrior/ is down. So I figured I would ask it here at Super User.
Initially, I misunderstood the meaning of the command task sync init. I thought it pushes the local tasks on the taskserver as being the complete list that should be on the taskserver. However that is an invalid assumption, in reality it just adds the tasks, as is stated here https://taskwarrior.org/docs/taskserver/sync.html. So the command in itself is not sufficient to clear the taskserver.
Hence I have also tried:
- remove
backlog.data,completed.data,pending.dataandundo.datafrom~/.task/. And enter the commandsudo task sync init. - remove
backlog.data,completed.data,pending.dataandundo.datafrom~/.task/. Recreate those files by creating a single task using commandtask add task1. Enter the commandsudo task sync init. - Remove the taskwarrior server from ubuntu WSL 16.04 using command
apt-get remove taskdand rebooting WSL Ubuntu 16.04 and repeating first step 1, then step 2. Both not effective. - Remove the taskwarrior server from ubuntu WSL 16.04 using command
apt-get purge taskdand rebooting WSL Ubuntu 16.04 and repeating first step 1, then step 2. Both not effective. As suggested here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/187888/what-is-the-correct-way-to-completely-remove-an-application. followed by step 1 and step 2. - I updated to taskwarrior 2.6.0 to use the purge command on all tasks as: task purge, but it did not remove the tasks from the local taskwarrior, so it doesn't remove them from the taskserver either.
A way to effectively clear the taskserver is to completely un-install the WSL Ubuntu, and re-install taskwarrior, taskwarrior server and the other software I run on the Ubuntu. As much as that is an excellent exercise in forcing me to think very well before I try another debugging test that corrupts the data, I am also eager to learn about the functioning of taskwarriors taskserver.
Therefore I wonder if someone knows the command(s) to clear the taskwarrior server from within Ubuntu?
