Task Management Tool in php

-

Creating a task management tool in PHP involves several steps, including setting up a database to store tasks, creating PHP scripts to handle task operations (such as adding, updating, deleting tasks), and designing the user interface for users to interact with the tasks. Below is a step-by-step guide to help you create a basic task management tool in PHP using MySQL database for storage.

Prerequisites:

  1. Basic knowledge of PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
  2. A web server with PHP and MySQL support. You can use XAMPP, WAMP, or any other local development environment.
  3. A code editor like Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, or any of your choice.

Step 1: Database Setup

  1. Create a MySQL database named task_management.
  2. Create a table named tasks with columns: id (auto-increment), task_name, task_description, created_at (timestamp), updated_at (timestamp).

Step 2: PHP Scripts

config.php (Database Configuration)

php code
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$database = "task_management";

$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $database);

if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
?>

index.php (Task Listing and UI)

php code

<?php
include('config.php');
?>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Task Management</title>
    <!-- Add your CSS styles here -->
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Task Management</h1>
    <ul>
        <?php
        $sql = "SELECT * FROM tasks";
        $result = $conn->query($sql);

        if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
            while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
                echo "<li>" . $row["task_name"] . " - " . $row["task_description"] . "</li>";
            }
        } else {
            echo "<li>No tasks found</li>";
        }
        ?>
    </ul>
    <!-- Add your form and JavaScript for task management here -->
</body>
</html>

add_task.php (Add Task)

php code

<?php
include('config.php');

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $taskName = $_POST['task_name'];
    $taskDescription = $_POST['task_description'];

    $sql = "INSERT INTO tasks (task_name, task_description) VALUES ('$taskName', '$taskDescription')";

    if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
        header("Location: index.php");
    } else {
        echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error;
    }
}
?>

Step 3: User Interface

In index.php, add a form to add tasks using HTML and use JavaScript to handle form submission (you can use plain JavaScript or jQuery for this).

Step 4: Styling

Add CSS styles to make your task management tool visually appealing.

Step 5: Run Your Application

Upload your files to your web server or run your local server environment (like XAMPP) and open index.php in your browser to see the task management tool in action.
