Delicious to Evernote

Delicious has gone to the dogs. Evernote's free plan works great for bookmarking. This utility converts exported Delicious bookmarks into a format that can be imported into Evernote.

Instructions

1. Export your Delicious bookmarks

• Open Profile > Settings > Export
• Ensure Include My Tags and Include My Notes are checked
• Select Export to download your Delicious bookmarks export file

2. Convert your Delicious bookmarks into Evernote bookmarks

• Install Ruby - I used version 2.4.3 (2.4 or later should work, earlier versions probably won't)
• Clone this repo:

  git clone https://github.com/nzkeith/delicious-to-evernote.git
  

• Open a shell in the repo folder and run:

  gem install bundler
  bundle install
  bundle exec ruby delicious_to_evernote.rb
  

  This will say Success! and not show any errors if everything's set up correctly
• Copy your Delicious bookmarks export file into the repo folder
• Edit delicious_to_evernote.rb to set $in_filename to the filename of your export file
• In the command shell, do another:

  bundle exec ruby delicious_to_evernote.rb
  

  This creates the Evernote bookmarks import file Evernote.enex

3. Import your Evernote bookmarks

• Download and install the Evernote application (I used the Windows client)
• Open File > Import > Evernote Export Files...
• Select the Evernote.enex bookmarks import file
