from_input method should load taskrc_location and data_location

[lyz-code]

Hi, I'm writing some hooks and I noticed that the from_input method loads a TaskWarrior backend with the following configuration

backend = backends.TaskWarrior(data_location=hook_parent_dir)

Therefore it loads the data from the hook parent directory but the configuration from ~/.taskrc.

Now with the hooks V2 it would be as easy as to load those two values from sys.argv.

I'm willing to do a Pull Request if you are interested.

Please let me know

yes, please implement that :)

Sorry @xerus2000, due to the lack of activity of taskwarrior/tasklib I've migrated my efforts to pydo

Hmpf, that's sad. I have been working myself into taskwarrior now. I don't wanna switch again, but I'm already hitting pain points.

I do understand that the representation as text file isn't always optimal, but it is the UNIX philosophy and can be really useful if you work a lot with text-processing CLI tools - renaming tags or whatever can easily be done without even using taskwarrior.

I agree with you, but these reasons made me take the decision. Regarding the UNIX point, I think that as long as the application supports the import and export of it's data as json, it makes it compliant with the principle.
