Sync todos among Telekasten, Mac Reminders and iPhone Reminders

(Telekasten is a Neovim (lua) plugin for working with a markdown zettelkasten / wiki and mixing it with a journal, based on telescope.nvim)

I use Macbook pro and iPhone, normally the todos in Reminders are synced between Mac/iPhone by iCloud.

However, I also create todos in Telekasten notes, such like take some notes while programming, think of something need to do, then I create todo in Telekasten notes directly. When I walk away from Macbook, I'd like to check todos on iPhone. or, maybe just have something to remember before sleeping, make one reminder in iPhone Reminders, then tomorrow morning when I come back to office, I could see it in Telekasten.

I wrote this script to sync todo items between Telekasten and Mac Reminders bidirectionally. so I am able to manage/check todos anywhere with MacBook or iPhone.

1. Install reminder-cli from https://github.com/keith/reminders-cli
2. Create a list named as "Telekasten" in your Mac Reminders application
3. Of course, you need Telekasten installed and configured

synctoo.sh

1. A Telakasten todo (for example, - [ ] something ) will be synced to Reminders as a new item.
2. when changed to - [x] somehing, it will be marked as done in Reminders

Only todos in Reminders list named as "Telekasten" are synced.

newly createed todos will be synced to Telekasten, such as:

1. topic:abcd will be put into "topic.md" as - [ ] abcd
2. abcd (without list name) will be put into "Reminders.md" as - [ ] abcd

Attention: the first ':' of a Reminders item will always be used as separator between TK note name and todo text. so normally, you'd like to avoid have ':' in todo text
