Setup

Needs API setup in the Google Dev Console - then you'll need to download the json file and define it's path in the config (see below)

Config

The configuration json file should be located at $HOME/.gtasksconfig.json or where the command is called ./.gtasksconfig.json

  "default_list_id": "DON'T FILL IT",
  "auth": {
    "token_path": "FOLDER/token.json",
    "client_secret_path": "FOLDER/client_secret.json"
  }
}
