Feature request: support for importing Thunder Client collections

[M-Gonzalo]

Mostly just what the title says. TC is going the same path as Insomnia sadly, and I'd like to use Bruno as an alternative.

Feel free to point me in the right direction, I could probably implement it myself with a little nudge here and there.

@sanjai0py There is no process at the moment for assigning issues. You can work in this issue, share your progress here and then raise a PR.

Couldn't find the full schema of ThunderClient. I tried using the VS Code extension and exported a collection, from which I obtained this structure:

{
    "client": "Thunder Client",
    "collectionName": "test",
    "dateExported": "2023-12-12T08:01:33.110Z",
    "version": "1.1",
    "folders": [],
    "requests": [
        {
            "_id": "4b1c0538-8b86-4035-925a-b80135bf08c9",
            "colId": "66dff488-c633-46dd-a3d9-6ef8ef7ecc89",
            "containerId": "",
            "name": "https://www.thunderclient.com/welcome",
            "url": "https://www.thunderclient.com/welcome",
            "method": "GET",
            "sortNum": 10000,
            "created": "2023-12-11T10:19:20.495Z",
            "modified": "2023-12-11T10:19:20.495Z",
            "headers": [],
            "params": [],
            "tests": []
        }
    ]
}

I am not sure how reliable this is.

Is this really necessary when thunder client can be converted to Postman format? (ref: https://github.com/rangav/thunder-client-support#how-to-convert-to-postman-format )

[sanjai0py]

then i think one can convert the collections to postman format and then import it into bruno.

Is there still any value in this? I'm looking for an issue to contribute on as a first one, and I was a big Thunderclient user before I found Bruno.

Hey @Phyziik, sure go ahead!
