Trello importer

This node app converts a Trello json archive into a Focalboard archive. To use:

  1. From the Trello Board Menu, select More, then Print and Export, and Export to JSON
  2. Save it locally, e.g. to trello.json
  3. Run npm install from within focalboard/webapp
  4. Run npm install from within focalboard/import/trello
  5. Run npx ts-node importTrello.ts -i <path-to-trello.json> -o archive.focalboard (also from within focalboard/import/trello)
  6. In Focalboard, click Settings, then Import archive and select archive.focalboard

Import scope

Currently, the script imports all cards from a single board, including their list (column) membership, names, and descriptions. Contribute code to expand this.
