trello-full-backup 0.3.1

Run with Docker

The easiest way to execute the script with the default parameters (if you have Docker):

docker run -t -e TRELLO_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY -e TRELLO_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN -v /backups:/app jtpio/trello-full-backup

This will create a new folder on your host system in the backups directory. Feel free to adjust it based on your host system (GNU/Linux, Mac OS, Windows…).

To pass different parameters, for example to avoid downloading attachments:

docker run -t -e TRELLO_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY -e TRELLO_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN -v /backups:/app jtpio/trello-full-backup trello-full-backup -a 0

Install

pip install trello-full-backup

Usage

Make sure the environment variables TRELLO_API_KEY and TRELLO_TOKEN are correctly set.

• To get the API key: https://trello.com/app-key

• To get the token: https://trello.com/1/authorize?scope=read&expiration=never&name=backup&key=REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_API_KEY&response_type=token

Then you can run the following commands:

export TRELLO_API_KEY=yourapikey
export TRELLO_TOKEN=yourtoken

And execute the script:

trello-full-backup

By default the script creates a folder with the current date as a name. Example: 2015-11-12_18-57-56_backup

You can specify your own destination directory, but the script does not create the intermediate directories in case they don’t exist:

trello-full-backup -d path/to/dir

Options

trello-full-backup -h

usage: trello-full-backup [-h] [-d [DEST]] [-i] [-t] [-B] [-L] [-C] [-o]
                          [-a [ATTACHMENT_SIZE]]

Trello Full Backup

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -d [DEST]             Destination folder
  -i, --incremental     Backup in an already existing folder incrementally
  -t, --tokenize        Tokenize the names for folders and files. Useful for
                        scripts
  -B, --closed-boards   Backup closed board
  -L, --archived-lists  Backup archived lists
  -C, --archived-cards  Backup archived cards
  -m, --my-boards       Backup my personal boards
  -o, --organizations   Backup organizations
  -a [ATTACHMENT_SIZE], --attachment-size [ATTACHMENT_SIZE]
                        Attachment size limit in bytes. Set to -1 to disable
                        the limit

If neither the -m or -o switches are specified, the script will default to backing up personal boards only.

Incremental mode

The incremental mode is useful for scripts. It will replace the names of the folders in each board by unique tokens. Furthermore, it allows the user to specify the same directory for backup. This will update all the json and description.md files. However it will download the attachment only if they have changed from the last backup.
