It's been brought to my attention that there's a better solution in place called t2md. Therefore, I'm closing this repo for any further updates.
A simple script allowing migrating Trello boards > lists > cards to markdown files supported by Kanban extension in Obsidian.
By all means, it's not perfect. A few issues I've noticed:
- it brings back some 'phantom' tasks back to live (most likely the deleted ones)
- it doesn't bring in empty lists
- it cocks up the order of tasks within cards
- it only grabs the lists with cards, no card details are ported through
Nonetheless... It helped me and may also help you save some copy-paste labour, or provide a baseline for a more robust script if it proves useful.
- If you don't yet have it, install the Kanban plugin in Obsidian
- Log in to Trello
- Go to your board
- Menu > More > Print and Export > Export to JSON
- Copy the JSON contents
- Save the file locally as
.json - Clone this repo locally
- Provide
inputJsonPathvariable to point to your downloaded JSON file - Optionally, provide the path to where you'd like the output path to be
- Press F5 / Run the script
- Now copy your output
.mdfile and paste it in your Obsidian directory in whichever folder you'd like it in.
