GitHub CSV Tools now supports exporting issues!
- Choose what columns you want in the exported CSV with
--exportAttributes. - Export all the comments per issue with
--exportComments
Importing issues via a CSV is also possible, just pass a CSV file like githubCsvTools myFile.csv.
To get started, just run npm install -g github-csv-tools and then export with the command githubCsvTools.
Enjoy!
