NodeJS web server that automagically converts a Trello board into a printable document

NodeJS web server that automagically converts a Trello board into a customizable PDF!

Installation

Some installation is required to get this running server-side. Run this on a Debian-based system to get started immediately:

apt-get install nodejs npm
npm install -g bower gulp-cli
cd <installdir>
npm install
git submodule init && git submodule update

You will also need to have special dependencies on your system, specifically PrinceXML and PDFToolkit. On Ubuntu 16.04, installation looked like this (please note that this may change based on your particular system and time of installation):

# create temp dir somewhere on disk
cd ~
mkdir tmp
# download and install Prince dependencies
apt-get install libcurl3
curl -O http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/giflib/giflib_4.1.6.orig.tar.gz
tar -xzvf giflib_4.1.6.orig.tar.gz
cd giflib_4.1.6
./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install
cd ..
# download and install Prince
curl -O http://www.princexml.com/download/prince-10r7-ubuntu14.04-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzvf prince-10r7-ubuntu14.04-amd64.tar.gz
cd prince-10r7-ubuntu14.04-amd64
./install.sh
# download and install PDFToolkit
apt-get install pdftk
