Import from Pocket: Pocket now mails you zipped CSV files

[daniel-l]

After being unable to export my pocket saves with their export tool (way more than the tool's limit of 5000 saves) I contacted the Pocket support. They then revamped the export tool: upon requesting an export they now mail you a zip file which contains csv files, each containing 10.000 pocket saves + the first row containing the column's titles.

Hoarder's import tool still expects Pocket's old html format; this needs to be updated.

The csv files are comma separated and formatted like this:

title,url,time_added,cursor,tags,status
Hoarder App,https://github.com/hoarder-app,1728576752,7187623980,,unread
"hoarder-app/hoarder: A self-hostable bookmark-everything app (links, notes and images) with AI-based automatic tagging and full text search",https://github.com/hoarder-app/hoarder,1728576752,7187623980,opensource|withÄumlaut|with space,unread
Some Website Title,"https://somewebsite.com/with,commas,in,the,url",1728576752,7187623980,,unread

Multiple tags are separated by the pipe symbol "|". Tags can contain german umlauts (e.g. äÄöÖüÜ) and spaces (see example above). If some part of the saved item (e.g. title, url) contains a comma, the whole part is enclosed in quotation marks (again, see examples above).
