Wordprexit

The Hugo documentation currently recommends three different tools for migrating a blog from Wordpress. Why not a fourth?

The existing options included a PHP plugin that installs in Wordpress itself and two WXR file parsers (WXR is Wordpress’s native export format). All are missing key features: Page Bundle support, comments, and so on. Since this site has over 1,000 posts (1130, in fact), I wasn’t planning to fix things up by hand any more than necessary. So I sort of had to write my own tool.

Enter Wordprexit. You can read more about it on its project page.

I’ve written plenty of code before, but this is my first attempt at really sharing any of my software projects. I even uploaded Wordprexit to PyPI. I’m curious if people find it useful.
