mdtk (Markdown Toolkit)
Tools for working with markdown files.
Installation
pip install mdtk
Requires Python 3.10+.
Usage
Chrome bookmarks to markdown
- In Chrome, open the bookmark manager (
chrome://bookmarks), put the links you want to export into one folder, and use Export bookmarks to save an HTML file. - Convert that folder to a markdown link list:
mdtk-bookmarks bookmarks.html links.md --folder "Reading List"
$ cat links.md
- [GitHub - Where the world builds software](https://github.com)
- [Welcome to Python.org](https://python.org)
Options:
--folder NAME- the bookmark folder to extract (default:EXPORT_FOLDER)--version- print the mdtk version and exit
Behavior notes:
- Bookmarks inside nested subfolders are included, flattened in document order.
- If several folders share the same name, the first one in the file is used.
- Titles and URLs are escaped so the generated markdown links stay valid.
- If the folder is not found, the error message lists the folders the export does contain.
Python API
from mdtk import BookmarkError, convert_bookmarks
count = convert_bookmarks("bookmarks.html", "links.md", folder_name="Reading List")
print(f"exported {count} bookmarks")
convert_bookmarks returns the number of bookmarks written and raises
BookmarkError for anything that goes wrong (missing file, unknown folder,
input that is not a bookmarks export, ...).
