Chrome bookmarks to json

Convert exported chrome bookmarks to JSON made by two silly Chinese.

Perequisites

For Python Version:

• Python 2 or higher installed

For C++ Version

• You hand and your device, nothing else...

Usage

Python Version

• Run the following Command: python html2json.py path_to_bookmark.html path_to_save_json.json

• (Add sudo if writting to a path that needs root permissions)

• Or python html2json.py, enter the path to exported bookmark, then enter the path for saving the json file

C++ Version

Use it just like a Linux software, call the program with parameters:

-i or --input-file         Specify source file. i.e. Your bookmark HTML file exported from Google Chrome.
-o or --output-file        Specify output file name. i.e. ToadJiangPlusOneSecond.json

Examples

  # Python Version
  python html2json.py chromeBookMark.html ToadJiangPlusOneSecond.json

  # C++ Version
  html2json -i chromeBookMark.html -o ToadJiangPlusOneSecond.json

Known Issue

In Python Version, because Chrome does not count "Other bookmarks" as a bookmark folder in the exported html file, the folders under "Other bookmarks" will be under "Bookmarks" folder.

Json Structure:

"Bookmarks":
	{
		"FolderA": 
			{
			"LINK":'BOOKMARK_NAME'
			}
		"FolderB": 
			{
			"LINK":'BOOKMARK_NAME'
			}
		"LINK": 'BOOKMARK_NAME'
	}
