This tool converts a Revelation XML export file to a CSV format comptable with KeePassXC. It preserves the organizational structure and all fields in the Revelation XML output.
If your password database uses only ASCII characters, no further steps are required.
If your password database uses
unicode characters,
like letters with accents, please install the unicodecsv package using either
your system's package manager or pip.
For example, on Ubuntu 20.04 you would run
sudo apt install python3-unicodecsv
and substitude python3 for python in the command listed below.
- Open the Revelation password database.
- Choose
File -> Export. Save the file as a XML file - Accept the "Save to Insecure File" dialog.
- Run the python script in this repository to convert the Revelation Output XML
file to a KeePassXC-compatable CSV file using a command similar to the following:
python revelation-xml-to-keepassxc.py REVELATION_XML_FILE DESIRED_OUTPUT_FILEfor example:python revelation-xml-to-keepassxc.py passwords.xml passwords.csv - Import the resulting file into KeePassXC using the "Import CSV" function. Be sure to click the "First Record Has Field Names" button and map the column layout as shown below.
- Spot check that the import worked correctly. If there are problems, please report them using the issue tracker above.
Want to see how this works on your own system before exporting your Revelation database? Try out the functionality on the included demo database.
Open the demo-database/revelation-test-db file in Revelation and try out
the instructions above. The database password is "demo".
