For Discourse is there an importer than can read from text files, like csv files?

Question

If so this seem to be the simplest approach for importing data from other sources because I can extract data from the old forum without problem, the difficultly is getting an import into discourse.

Answer 1

So I ended up writing one myself, expect this is of most use to other Java developers moving relatively small forums to Discourse from another forum. In my case i was importing from JForum but the tool is not JForum specific it just works from .csv files.
