From Kanbanery to Trello

You can keep reading here or jump to my blog to get the full experience, including the wonderful pink, blue and white palette.


The scripting spree is not ended yet! To write the last few posts here I've fruitfully used "Scaffolding a Blog Post", "Tweeting a Blog Post via command line" and "Crossposting to DevTo via command line". Now it's time to see a script that was written for a work-related task.

In particular, we wanted to move a few of our project kanban boards from Kanbanery to Trello. Since I wrote the script after reading the awesome "Optics by Example", the code uses optics.

Let's see how the script works first:

$ ./kan2tre.hs --help

Usage: kan2tre.hs [--in CSV_FILE] TRELLO_BOARD_ID TRELLO_API_KEY
                  TRELLO_API_TOKEN
  Moves all tickets exported from Kanbanery in CSV_FILE to the Trello board
  identified by TRELLO_BOARD_ID. Kanbanery exports a CSV with the following
  schema: Title,Owner email,Task type,Estimate,Priority,Description,Column
  name,Creator email,Created at,Subtasks,Comments Some records exported by
  Kanbanery could be malformed. When encountered they are printed to stdout so
  that you can manually add them. Also, any failed request to the Trello API is
  printed to stdout. Subtasks and comments are strings separated by semicolon.
  Unfortunately, there's no way to distinguish between a separarator and a
  semicolon in a comment / subtask. Thus, this script does not attempt to split
  comments / subtasks. In other words, comments and subtasks are always going to
  be one string each. This scripts ignores Owner email, Estimate, Priority,
  Creator email and Created at.

Available options:
  --in CSV_FILE            Path to csv file with exported tickets from
                           Kanbanery (default: "./kanbanery.csv")
  TRELLO_BOARD_ID          Trello board id. To get this visit
                           https://trello.com/b/ID/reports.json where ID is the
                           one you see in the URL of your board. For example, in
                           the following URL the ID is 'lPbIpQIl'
                           https://trello.com/b/lPbIpQIl/habitatmap
  TRELLO_API_KEY           Trello api key
  TRELLO_API_TOKEN         Trello api token
