Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep/issues/455

Omnivore doesn't have an export, its a real PITA, so either docs of how to simply export from omnivore or an import feature would be awesome....

I'll see if I can do something and push a PR, else if you have any ideas on it that would be great.

Thanks!

shouldn't you rather create an issue with omnivore to get an export feature?

There are a bunch of discussions already on this.

But this is 2 fold, if someone comes around trying to work out how to do it and searches the issues - this issue will show up.

So regardless of the outcome, it can at least help someone in the future :)

ok, but then just link the discussion here and we'll close this issue. The hoarder maintainers are not going to add a bookmark export to omnivore ;-)

That is unacceptable! I expect them to do it! (jk) :P

Annnddd .... here we go :)

ENDPOINT="https://api-prod.omnivore.app/api/graphql"
OUTPUT_FILE="omnivore_bookmarks.html"

# Initialize the bookmarks file
echo '<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>

has_next_page=true

while $has_next_page; do
    response=$(fetch_page "$after")
    process_results "$response"
    
    has_next_page=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.data.search.pageInfo.hasNextPage')
    after=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.data.search.pageInfo.endCursor')
    
    echo "Processed a page. More pages: $has_next_page"
    
    # Optional: add a small delay to avoid hitting rate limits
    sleep 1
done

# Close the bookmarks file
echo '</DL><p>' >> "$OUTPUT_FILE"

echo "Bookmarks have been saved to $OUTPUT_FILE"

Create the script (bash) and run it passing in your API key as the argument.

It'll generate a bookmarks file that you can import into hoarder.

I didn't expect them to do it - thus why moreof a question of ideas.

But anywhoo, there is a bash script that will export omnivore links in a bookmark format that can be easily imported into hoarder :)

So if anyone has to migrate later on, they can just run this ....

Only bash, curl and jq required - so a non python dev can also use it.

Going to close now since records exist for any future person in the same stuck.
