NAME

App::adr2org - Convert Opera bookmarks to Org (and vice versa)

VERSION

This document describes version 0.04 of App::adr2org (from Perl distribution App-adr2org), released on 2014-10-15.

DESCRIPTION

This distribution provides the following utilities:

adr2org
org2adr

FUNCTIONS

adr2org(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]

Convert Opera bookmarks (bookmarks.adr) to Org document.

I want to keep my Opera browser bookmarks file (~/.opera/bookmarks.adr) under git repository, so I can synchronize them between computers. There are a few annoyances though: 1) When Opera saves bookmarks file, it remove symlinks, so after I have to re-symlink the file to my git repo; 2) The ID field changes sporadically, creating unnecessarily large diff and merge conflicts.

This program (and its counterpart convert-org-to-opera-bookmarks) is an alternative to keeping Opera bookmarks file under git. You convert to .org file, put the .org file under git, and convert back to .adr. The advantage is that the ID field is removed so the diff is smaller and conflict reduced. Also, you can more conveniently edit using Emacs/other Org editor.

Another alternative to this program is to use the Opera Link service from Opera to synchronize your bookmarks (and a few other stuffs) between devices. But note that Opera has closed some of its services in the past.

Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

  • exclude_trash => bool

  • input* => str

    Opera addressbook file.

Return value:

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (result) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information.

(any)

org2adr(%args) -> [status, msg, result, meta]
