base on Export pinned Arc Browser tabs for importing bookmarks into other browsers # Arc Pinned Tabs to HTML Bookmarks Converter
## Overview
This project provides a script for converting pinned tabs in the **Arc Browser** to standard HTML bookmarks file. These bookmarks can then be imported into any web browser.
This addresses the lack of a pinned tabs export feature in Arc Browser.
## Requirements
- Python 3.x
- Arc Browser installed
## Installation
1. Clone the repository: `git clone
[email protected]:ivnvxd/arc-export.git`
2. Navigate to the project folder: `cd arc-export`
or download using `curl`:
```sh
curl -o main.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivnvxd/arc-export/main/main.py
```
## Usage
Run the `main.py` script from the command line:
```sh
python3 main.py [-h] [-s] [-o OUTPUT] [-v] [--version]
# or if there is an error:
python main.py [-h] [-s] [-o OUTPUT] [-v] [--version]
```
### Troubleshooting
If you encounter any problems, manually copy the `StorableSidebar.json` file from the `~/Library/Application Support/Arc/` directory to the project's directory and run the script again.
## Features
The script supports various command-line options for enhanced functionality:
- **Show help message and exit**
- `-h`, `--help`
- **Silence output**
- `-s`, `--silent`
- **Specify the output file path**
- `-o OUTPUT`, `--output OUTPUT`
- **Enable verbose output**
- `-v`, `--verbose`
- **Print the git short hash and commit time**
- `--version`
Example usage:
`python3 main.py -v -o my_bookmarks.html`

## How It Works
1. **Read JSON**: Reads the `StorableSidebar.json` file from the Arc Browser's directory *or* the project's directory.
2. **Convert Data**: Converts the JSON data into a hierarchical bookmarks dictionary.
3. **Generate HTML**: Transforms the bookmarks dictionary into an HTML file.
4. **Write HTML**: Saves the HTML file with a timestamp, allowing it to be imported into any web browser.
