Import from previous version

The structure of bookmarks data can change between certain versions. For example between versions v0.0.x and v0.1.x.

To make it easy to update between versions, Bookmark introduces import command that should correctly move old bookmarks to be compatible with the new version.

If you are using default file paths to store bookmarks, simply run:

bookmark import

In a case that you used custom file, you can specify it with the --old-file flag:

bookmark import --old-file /home/my-old-bookmark-file.json
