Go-Canvas-Todos

Go-Canvas-Todos is a Go-based utility that helps you synchronize your Canvas LMS todos with a task calendar. This tool allows you to automatically add, update, and manage your tasks based on assignments in Canvas.

Prerequisites

Before you begin using this tool, make sure you have the following:

• Go Programming Language (installed and configured)
• Access to Canvas LMS
• Access to a WebDAV server (for calendar synchronization)

Configuration

To configure the Go-Canvas-Todos tool, create a config.json file based on the provided config-example.json. Here is what each configuration parameter means:

• canvas_host: The hostname of your Canvas instance (e.g., canvas.example.com).
• canvas_key: Your Canvas API key. Replace <YOUR CANVAS KEY> with your actual API key.
• dav_url: The URL of your WebDAV server (e.g., https://dav.example.com).
• dav_username: Your WebDAV username. Replace <YOUR DAV USER> with your actual username.
• dav_password: Your WebDAV password. Replace <YOUR DAV PASSWORD> with your actual password.
• task_calendar: The name or identifier of the calendar where tasks will be added.
• disable_tls: Set this to true to disable TLS certificate verification when making HTTP requests to Canvas. Only use this option in a trusted environment, as it may pose security risks.
