Description

It would be nice to have a way to import and export data from some widely used formats like CSV or JSON. This will help to keep history when migrating from other platforms.

    Hi there, I recently migrated to Liwan from Matomo (Piwik); I needed to import some 10 years of data, across 40+ sites, so I wrote a CLI to handle it; It's currently only available on my fork, but in theory you should be able to import the data using my fork, and then go back to the upstream release: https://github.com/franzos/liwan

    It should be possible to support other formats like JSON.
    What platform are you looking to migrate from?

    Cool! CSV / JSON export would be great to have available directly in Liwan. For more "live" imports I plan on adding a bulk API for server side analytics soon, which a external utility similar to yours could probably be built around.

    I migrated from goatcounter using own Python script. But having a built-in tool IMHO would be useful anyway.
