The instructions for running the importer aren't right for squarespace and aren't clear in general. This is what worked for me:

  1. Step one in the readme is correct and clear enough.
  2. Install the dependencies from the root of the Blot project via npm install
  3. Copy the xml file exported from Squarespace to the Blot/app/dashboard/routes/importer/sources/squarespace folder, renaming it to dump.xml
  4. Run the import script from the Blot/app/dashboard/routes/importer/sources/squarespace folder via node index.js dump.xml output
  5. Your blog posts in markdown are located in Blot/app/dashboard/routes/importer/sources/squarespace/output/

Thank you for putting this together, I have updated the readmes in /app/dashboard/routes/importer/sources/squarespace and /app/dashboard/routes/importer. Please don't hesitate to ask if anything else comes up
