instapaper-to-omnivore-import

A little script that I made to import my huge collection of links from Instapaper to Omnivore. Hopefully someone else finds it useful!

Requirements

  • Node.js >= version 16.
  • A exported .CSV from Instapaper
  • Auth token from Omnivore (discount version auth, sorry)

Usage

  1. Clone the repository and install dependencies:

    $ npm install
  2. Go to https://instapaper.com/user. Scroll down to Export and click Download .CSV file. Save the CSV-file in the root directory of this repository.

    ⚠️ The filename must be instapaper-export.csv

  3. Go to https://omnivore.app, login, and copy the value of the auth cookie. How to do this differs for every browser I guess, but if you're using Chrome:

    • Open Developer Tools (Option + Cmd + I)
    • Go the Application tab
    • Find the auth cookie in the list. Copy the value. It should look something like this: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiI ...
  4. Add the auth cookie value to the .env file:

    OMNIVORE_AUTH_COOKIE=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiI ...
    
  5. Run the script. It might take a few minutes.

    $ npm run import
    
  6. Refresh Omnivore and browse your imported content!
