Export endpoint: GET /api/v1/quotes/export

[DutchJaFO]

Add a bulk export endpoint — the natural complement to the import endpoint (#45).

Endpoint

GET /api/v1/quotes/export

Query parameters

Parameter	Description
format	json (default) or csv
type	Filter by type (repeatable, OR logic) — same as /quotes
genre	Filter by genre (repeatable, OR logic) — same as /quotes
lang	Language code for translation fallback — same as other endpoints

Response

• format=json — Content-Type: application/json, body is a JSON array in the canonical quotes.json schema. The output is valid input for the import endpoint (Import endpoint: POST /api/v1/quotes/import #45) and for the seed script (scripts/seed.csx).
• format=csv — Content-Type: text/csv, Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="quotes.csv", columns match the import CSV format.

Behaviour

• No pagination — always returns the full filtered set; this is a data export, not a list endpoint
• totalCount in the response headers (X-Total-Count) so consumers know what they received
• The JSON output round-trips cleanly through import: export → import produces no duplicates and no data loss

Auth

Read-only — no authentication required (same policy as other read endpoints). Rate limiting applies.

Notes

• Feeds directly into the MagicMirror preset import UI (Blazor management UI: bulk import quotes from JSON or CSV #44) — a user can export, edit locally, and re-import
• Useful for backups before enrichment runs or before a migration
• Update README, addon/DOCS.md, and [Description] attributes in the same commit
