process ma.gnolia_bookmarks for Diigo so that multiwords tags are preserved
Hi everyone.

I was lucky enough to backup all my bookmarks last xmas before the
recent complete meltdown of ma.gnolia.com

Unfortunately, when submitting the file to my new diigo account, all
multiword tags are converted to multiple single word tags which is not very
helpful for anyone searching through my tags.

Now I'm wondering how I can process the html file that contains
the bookmarks I managed to salvage (6500) using a combination
of akw and sed I suppose so I can adapt
the inner metadata as to preserve the tags integrity during the import into diigo.

Here is a sample of what the file contains:
Code:
<dt><A HREF="http://max.jsrhost.com/ajaxify/demo.php"
ADD_DATE="1230944239" LAST_MODIFIED="1230944239" 
TAGS="jquery, ajax, web devel tools">Ajaxify - jQuery plugin</A></dt>
<dd>Ajaxify is a jquery plugin that manage your ajax request</dd>

Using the previous code example, in TAGS="(.*?)"
  1. I need to replace the strings of 2 caracters: comma space
    with a single comma.
    Code:
    TAGS="jquery, ajax, web devel tools"

    becomes
    Code:
    TAGS="jquery,ajax,web devel tools"

  2. Then, in the same field, replace the remaning spaces with the underscore caracter.
    Code:
    TAGS="jquery,ajax,web devel tools"

    becomes
    Code:
    TAGS="jquery,ajax,web_devel_tools"

How would I do this using my linux shell?
I'd the like to share my findings with my fellow ma.gnoliers

Many thanks in advance

Jeunium

Try sed:
Code:
sed 's/, /,/g' file > newfile

Thanks for your answer danmero but wouldn't this do the replacement in all the file?

I want the replacements to occur only within the TAGS tag of each hyperlinks of my input file.

Thanks again for your time danmero

Sorry , I overseen the second requirement Smilie , try awk:
Code:
awk '{FS=OFS="\"";gsub(", ",","$2);gsub(" ","_",$2)}1' file > newfile

You are very generous denmero

I greatly appreciate your time and efforts on this but,

Where, in your command does it

limit the "search and replace" to only the TAGS=",,,,," part?

Code:
<dt><A HREF="http://max.jsrhost.com/ajaxify/demo.php"
ADD_DATE="1230944239" LAST_MODIFIED="1230944239" 
TAGS="jquery, ajax, web devel tools">Ajaxify - jQuery plugin</A></dt>
<dd>Ajaxify is a jquery plugin that manage your ajax request</dd>

Smilie

I think we're on to something here but it doesn't quite work yet.

Let's remember that both substitutions must occur within the same

TAGS="web devel tools, online generators"
which in this case should become
Quote:
TAGS="web_devel_tools,online_generators"
The substitions must occur ONLY within the TAGS="...." AND NOT on the whole line !!!

Thanks again danmero for your time.
