The entry with "Monty Pythons Flying Circus" is missing a title (or a
director, depending on if you meant for MPFC to be director or title).
All fields need to be present, though they can be empty. An empty field
would represented by empty double quotes. So that particular entry might be
Hallo Mark,
Your Example works fine now, the code does not cause crashes anymore,
but it gives me your error-message for this:
type,director,title,length,launch,tags
"motion_picture","Hans Richter","Ghosts Before Breakfast","6
min","14.07.1928","Neuro,Gestalttheorie,Movie"
Just as another option, I tend to use spreadsheets to create json files
suitable for importing. I would load the CSV data into the spreadsheet and
then use cell formulas to create lines of json text that can be cut and pasted
into a text editor and saved as a json file.
Regards,
Mal

Although you copied it from the list, when you pasted it in you already had
a line in place. Or you selected an extra line feed. So if you check,
you'll see that there is one "invisible" line at the bottom of your input
tiddler that is choking the program. When/If I do an update, I'll have to
Hi Mark,
the last string I tested was:
title,tags,text,birth,death
"John Smith","English male,Therapist","Explorer, Artist","1900","1981"
because I wanted to see it work...
This means I copypasted it right from the mail to the field...

I feel for you. One of the limitations with TW is when things fail is its
quite difficult to pin-down why. The interface gives virtually no feedback.
JSON is a much better format IMO because its not ambiguous in the way CSV
can be. But I don't think I can help you on specifics because I
Can you share the lines that crashed it? I would guess that you either
have an empty field or a blank line somewhere.

Ciao Mark & Jan
This is an interesting issue. Personally I found that creating simple
JSON's using GREP tools, rather than relying on a programme's own routines,
is more successful for importable files. i dont know that particular
application. What i do know is that we should not expect
So how did the csv2json crash? I imagine if you try to convert too much at
once there will be problems.
A quick look online suggests that the zotero RDF format may have more
fields than the json export. RDF is (usually) just a text format (XML) so
you could browse it and see if it contains
