Content to description

Open JWillmott opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

Sorry if this a stupid question (newbie alert), but I'm wondering if there is a way to pull in the content of the note (under ) to a description field so that the full text can be imported into Pinboard? I'd be very grateful, thanks!

@JWillmott Sorry the delay in responding. Things have been pretty busy lately.

I don't see any reason why this couldn't be done. Do you happen to have a small example of an evernote export you'd like to do this with?

No worries, thanks very much for the response! I’ve attached a one-note sample of the kind of export I mean. Sorry, I’ve just seen that github stripped my original message a bit - I meant to say that the relevant text was under the en-note tag (en hyphen note). Thanks very much, Jo

Sorry, it seems like my attaching didn't work - here's the export saved as a text file - hope this works. J NotesTest.txt

@JWillmott So I've had a look into this and, while it's very easy to grab the description from the input file, it doesn't look like the Netscape bookmark file format doesn't actually support descriptions (see here).

It's quite possible that Pinboard supports some extension to the file format which can understand descriptions. I've dropped them an email to see what we can do.
