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 git@github.com:ivnvxd/arc-export.git
2. Navigate to the project folder: cd arc-export

or download using curl:

curl -o main.py https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivnvxd/arc-export/main/main.py

Usage

Run the main.py script from the command line:

python3 main.py

# or if there is an error:
python main.py

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.

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.
