Credits: to Brokero that sponsor the initial implementation of this module.

---

This is a platform agnostic module that authenticates against Azure using the Xpand.XAF.Modules.Microsoft package, for details head to it's wiki page.

The Xpand.XAF.Modules.Office.Cloud.Microsoft.Todo provides a configurable one way synchronization between the ITask Domain Components and the Microsoft.Graph.OutlookTask entity. All CRUD operations will execute the cloud api after a successful XAF transaction. To configure the subject Views and the target container Task list you can use the model.

The package can operate without any configuration by executing a predefined map between the ITask and OutlookTask objects on Update and on Insert.

To customize the predefined map you can use a query like the next one which suffix the OutlookTask subject with the current date:

TodoService.CustomizeUpdate.Merge(TodoService.CustomizeInsert)
	.Do(tuple => {
		tuple.outlookTask.Subject = $"{tuple.task.Subject} - {DateTime.Now}";
	})
	.Subscribe();

Possible future improvements:

1. Bi-Directional synchronization.
2. Any other need you may have.

Let me know if you want me to implement them for you.
