Node script to export all your delicious bookmarks

_README.md

1. Download or clone the gist.
2. cd into the directory & do $ npm install
3. I have used nodedelicious and it needs you to store delcious username & password as enviromnet varaibles so you will need to do the following.

$ export DELICIOUS_USER="<your username>" && export DELICIOUS_PASSWORD="<your password>"

4. Run $ node index.js
5. PROFIT! you have your delicious export in a file called bookmarks.html that you can save or import in Pocket.

index.js

var nodedelicious = require('nodedelicious');
var moment = require('moment');
var fs = require('fs');
var filename = 'bookmarks.html';

// https://gist.github.com/fakechris/1258590
var start = '<!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1>' +
'<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">' +
'<!-- This is an automatically generated file.' +
'It will be read and overwritten.' +
'Do Not Edit! -->' +
'<TITLE>Bookmarks</TITLE>' +
'<H1>Bookmarks</H1>' +
'<DL><p>';
var end = '</p></DL>';

fs.writeFile(filename, start, function(err){
  if(err) console.log(err);
});

nodedelicious.getAll('', {
  fromDate: '2000-01-01' // I just added a very old date so I can get all my bookmarks.
}, function (err, data) {
  if(err) console.log(err);

  var posts = data.posts.post;
  posts.forEach(function(post, i){
    var private = post.$.private ? 1 : 0;
    var item = '<DT><A HREF="'+ post.$.href +'" ADD_DATE="' + moment(post.$.time).format('X') + '" PRIVATE="' + private + '" TAGS="' + post.$.tag.split(' ').join(',') + '">' + post.$.description + '</A></DT>';
    fs.appendFile(filename, item + '\n', function(err) {
      if(err) console.log(err);
      console.log('Added ' + i);
    });
  });

  fs.appendFile(filename, end, function(err){
    console.log(err);
  });
});

Hey, this works brilliantly, many thanks. It seems to be limited to only exporting 999 bookmarks. I have 2700 stuck inside the service. Is there any way to expand it so it will export more? Thanks again.
