Omnivore importer for raindrop.io

[ashutoshsaboo]

Hi there,

Thanks for your great work with the app. I was planning to migrate off my links from Raindrop.io to move to Omnivore. Would it be please possible to add an importer to import all links and articles from Raindrop.io to Omnivore? Raindrop.io is a pocket alternative, and a pretty popular cross platform bookmarking/article saving app.

They support a public and open API which is nicely documented, see the links below:

Here you go: https://github.com/tdhooten/omnivore-import-tool

Just dotnet run and you'll get a simple web interface allowing you to select your Raindrop.io CSV export, and receive an output file properly formatted for Omnivore's CSV import tool.

This would be simple enough for Omnivore to host on a subdomain or something if they wanted to. I am more than happy to add support for any other read-it-later format upon request. @jacksonh

As I am not familiar with such apps I do appreciate your post here. Basically I downloaded your repo, started the cmd, cd into the extracted folder and tried your command. It led to a total of 3 failed tries, as I had to read the error messages and follow the provided links to install missing frameworks. After installing these 3 missing things, I got a green info output and could access the web interface through localhost:5088

Maybe this helps someone else as well. Native support for omnivore would be awesome though :-)
