Task Manager for Groups

Project Description: Adding a tool in groups to plan, organize, and manage teams’ work, from start to finish. The task panel will have the following features:-

  • Categorize the task.
  • Custom tags/labels and custom categories.
  • Assign the work to members.
  • Deadline date, work progress bar, attachments.
  • Comment on the tasks.
  • Subscribe the task to get notifications.
  • Start any task directly from the group’s message.
  • Collaboration with Github/Bitbucket to import/sync tasks/issues.
  • Arrange tasks to be done in sequential order.
    In addition to group task, there will be a user Personal task manager where a user can create a personal task, and see all the assigned task from his/her groups.

Rocket.Chat already has an implementation for storing data in MongoDB, using meteor create method. Parallel to the existing models for Users, Messages, etc. a new model(Tasks) will be implemented in rocketchat-models. Add functions, methods, for create, edit, complete, assign, Tags, etc. in packages.

Rest API can be built in parallel to existing Rocket.Chat REST API,
for task.create, task.edit, etc.
