Export your bookmarks from [[https://pinboard.in][Pinboard]]

:end:

* Setting up

1. The easiest way is ~pip3 install --user git+https://github.com/karlicoss/pinbexport~.

   Alternatively, use ~git clone --recursive~, or ~git pull && git submodule update --init~. After that, you can use ~pip3 install --editable~.

2. Get your Pinboard =token= from [[https://pinboard.in/settings/password][password]] page.

* Exporting

#+begin_src python :dir src :results drawer :exports results

import pinbexport.export as E; return E.make_parser().epilog

#+end_src

Usage:

*Recommended*: create =secrets.py= keeping your api parameters, e.g.:

: token = "TOKEN"

After that, use:

: python3 -m pinbexport.export --secrets /path/to/secrets.py

That way you type less and have control over where you keep your plaintext secrets.

*Alternatively*, you can pass parameters directly, e.g.

: python3 -m pinbexport.export --token 

However, this is verbose and prone to leaking your keys/tokens/passwords in shell history.

You can also import ~export.py~ this as a module and call ~get_json~ function directly to get raw JSON.

I *highly* recommend checking exported files at least once just to make sure they contain everything you expect from your export. If not, please feel free to ask or raise an issue!
