Working with Trello cards in Eclipse - eclipse

Question

Is it possible to setup Trello as an Eclipse Mylyn task repository? Is there any existing connector or some other way to do it?

Answer 1

This excellent tutorial explains how it may be done by using Web Template Connector along with the Trello REST API.
However, the regex pattern in #19 there isn't totally correct, and causes to some issues being skipped. It should be changed to this:
\"id\"[\x00-\x7F]+?\"idShort\":({Type}[0-9]+)[\x00-\x7F]+?\"name\":\"({Description}[\x00-\x7F]+?)\"[\x00-\x7F]+?\"shortLink\":\"({Id}[\x00-\x7F]+?)\"[\x00-\x7F]+?\"url\"
So that all user's cards will appear in the MyLyn repository.

Answer 2

Correct regexp to tutorial. It supports labels of cards and cyrillic description.
All cards:
\"id\".+?\"idShort\":({Type}[0-9]+).+?(?:\"idLabels\".+?)\"name\":\"({Description}.+?)\",.+?\"shortLink\":\"({Id}.+?)\".+?\"url\"
Cards of your BOARD_ID
\"idBoard\":\"BOARD_ID\".+?\"idShort\":({Type}[0-9]+).+?(?:\"idLabels\".+?)\"name\":\"({Description}.+?)\",.+?\"shortLink\":\"({Id}.+?)\".+?\"url\"

Answer 3

The regular expressions didn't work for me anymore. Instead I did this:
Create a new web template repository:
Create a new web template repository
Under additional settings, add the applicationkey and userkey parameter
Under advanced configuration, add the task url https://trello.com/c/
Leave the rest empty.
Create a new query:
Go to the Task List view. Rightclick New -> Query
Select the web template repository and name it after the board or however you like
Add another parameter boardid. You can get the board id from https://trello.com/1/members/my?key={{trello_applicationkey}}&token={{trello_userkey}}
For Query URL use https://api.trello.com/1/boards/${boardid}/cards?fields=name,shortLink&key=${applicationkey}&token=${userkey}
For Query Pattern use "name":"({Description}.+?)","shortLink":"({Id}.+?)"

Answer 4

The other answers were giving all cards in the board, not just the ones assigned to me. I used the API search with filters to get what I needed.
Create a new web template repository:
Under additional settings, add the applicationkey, userkey, memberid
and boardname parameters
Under advanced configuration, add the task url https://trello.com/c/
Leave the rest empty.
Create a new query:
Query URL:
https://api.trello.com/1/search?query=member:${memberid}%20board:${boardname}&card_fields=name,shortLink&cards_limit=100&key=${applicationkey}&token=${userkey}
Query Pattern:
"name":"({Description}.+?)","shortLink":"({Id}.+?)"

I had the error Failed to parse RSS feed: "Invalid XML: Error on line 1: Content is not allowed in prolog.
After days of trying to fix this, I finally found that it was en encoding error.
In the Web Repository Settings under Additional Settings I selected US-ASCII.
I hope to help other people!
