Converting UI items back to *.items File

Just for information if not known already:
There is a command in REST API to remove all orphaned links at once.
It’s the last one under “links” (a POST-command, not DELETE).
You can do the same with the karaf console:

openhab:links orphan purge

or to only list your orphaned links

openhab:links orphan list

Hi and thanks for this script!

I tried it out, but i get the following error:

pls wait...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "export_items", line 175, in <module>
    f.write(line.split(" ", 1)[1].encode('utf-8').strip() + "\n")
TypeError: can't concat str to bytes

The export.items was created, but is empty.

Would be great, if someone could help to handle this.

Thanks,
Alex
