Export Tags as CSV file in JOSM

[anonymous]

Is it possible to export the tags from a file with JOSM. I have a list of boundaries and want to export all the name to an excel sheet

Problem with this request is that everbody who wants something similar has different opinions how the result should look like. I don't think it makes sense to integrate such a feature.

only easy thing would be to export nodes. In that case (export boundaries names) I can't think about a generic way to satisfy everyone.

I would also have a use for this. Is there a plugin doing something similar?

You could export the OSM objects like:
column1: id
column2: type (node/way/relation)
column3..x: list of key, each key would be a separate column. For uniform filtered data (like only boundaries in the example), there wouldn't be many columns
rows would be the tag value

Example csv file:
id,type,boundary,admin_level,name,ref
121,way,administrative
123,way,administrative
1,relation,administrative,2,Germany
2,relation,administrative,4,Bavaria,DE132123

If someone wants to just get the list of refs and corresponding names, that would be enough.

It seems there is an external program to do it:
