This directory contains a couple of simple importers, which will take bookmark data from "elsewhere" and massage it into the format this repository prefers.
The firefox importer allows you to export your bookmarks from Firefox, or Iceweasel, into this system. The process requires a couple of steps:
- Open firefox, choose "Bookmarks | Show All bookmarks".
- Then choose "Import & Backup | Export Bookmarks to HTML"
- Save to
~/bookmarks.html
Once you've done that you should be able to run this, via your favourite terminal:
perl importers/firefox/firefox ~/bookmarks.html
Please read the script, and follow the instructions, for importing bookmarks from http://pinboard.in/
