anytype to linkwarden

This is a quick little script style program that imports ONLY the bookmark's URLs from Anytype with the tags into a linkwarden collection called: "AnyType".

Everything else you will have to do yourself.

Usage

You will need to export your AnyType collection to "JSON" format:

Then you will need to have the executable / source of [migrate-json-export](cmd/migrate-json-export) available. (Compile it go build ./cmd/migrate-json-export, install it go build ./cmd/migrate-json-export or https://github.com/arran4/anytype-to-linkwarden/releases, run it using go run go run ./cmd/migrate-json-export <values>..)

You will also need to generate an API key from Linkwarden. Only tested on selfhosted:

Extract it:

unzip x Anytype.20240818.132330.55.zip

Once that's assembled you will need export the token to your environment var as: LINKWARDEN_TOKEN, ie

export LINKWARDEN_TOKEN=abc123

To run it simply use the following. (Assuming you used go build)

./migrate-json-export -export-dir=./Anytype.20240818.132330.55 -linkwarden-endpoint=https://linkwarden.com

But change the values:

• ./Anytype.20240818.132330.55 Should be the directory that was extracted with the zip.
• https://linkwarden.com Should be the URL of your instance. Do not include /api or some such.

THat run will give you a preview of the data. I have made some assumptions with how AnyType stores it's data. That is subject to change and you will probably have to adapt the code to make it work.

Once your ready to run it "live" add -dry=true to it as follows:

./migrate-json-export -export-dir=./Anytype.20240818.132330.55 -linkwarden-endpoint=https://linkwarden.com -dry=true
