No errors, but also no result for Reeder 5.

Reeder 5 seems to have switched from an sqlite database to RealmDB, the file is at this location:

~/Library/Containers/com.reederapp.5.macOS/Data/Library/Application Support/default.realm

You can backup or copy that file elsewhere and open it with Realm Studio

Under the class Item, It's possible to query the starred items by writing "starred == 1" in the query field.

Unfortunately I'm stuck at that point, I can't seem to be able to export that data out of there, unless it's all the data in a json format.
I've also tried this realm-exporter node package but no luck installing it.

I might look into this a bit more next week.

Nevermind I found the solution with this app:
https://github.com/aromajoin/realm-to-csv
The database should be converted to a csv file for each class, you can import the output file Item.csv into a google sheet. From that workbook, create another sheet, you can then add simple filter functions to get only the starred items for each columns you need, (column E here is the starred column):
=FILTER(Item!K:K,Item!E:E=1) // Title
=FILTER(Item!J:J,Item!E:E=1) // Link
=FILTER(Item!O:O,Item!E:E=1) // Content

and there you have it!

Thanks! I found this discussion and successfully exported my starred items in Reeder 5.

Just did this myself. Still useful years later thank you!
