Configuration

Taskfiles can be configured in your settings.json using the taskfile configuration key. The following settings are available:

Setting	Type	Allowed Values	Default	Description
updateOn	string	"manual", "save"	"save"	When the list of tasks should be updated.
path	string		"task"	Path to the Task binary. Can also the name of a binary in your $PATH. If Task is installed via Snap, set this to /snap/task/current/task.
checkForUpdates	boolean		true	Check if there is a newer version of Task on startup.
doubleClickTimeout	number		0	Time in milliseconds to consider a double-click. 0 disables double-click to run. 500 is a good starting point if you want to enable it.
tree.nesting	boolean		true	Whether to nest tasks by their namespace in the tree view.
tree.status	boolean		false	Whether to show the status of tasks in the tree view (may be slow on large Taskfiles).
tree.sort	sort	default, alphanumeric, none	"default"	The order in which to display tasks in the tree view. - default - Sorts tasks alphabetically by name, but ensures that root tasks (tasks without a namespace) are listed before namespaced tasks. - alphanumeric - Sort tasks alphabetically by name. - none - No sorting. Uses the order as defined in the Taskfile.
