Description John 2018-04-28 17:17:07 UTC
I would love to see firefox bookmark sync integration. Maybe a project for GSoC?
Firefox sync server is opensource. So it would also be easy to sync between mobile and Desktop.

Not only bookmarks, but sync of passwords too.

I would favor bookmark sync, tab sync,... via my own Nextcloud instead of Mozilla or other 3rd-parties.

Firefox sync of bookmarks, logins, etc. would be a terrific feature to have.

Having some way to synchronise bookmarks, passwords, or even tabs between KDE machines would be an amazing addition to Falkon. If using e.g. Firefox Sync is undesirable, would it perhaps be possible to make something like this work through KDE Connect instead?

Greetings!

I intend to write a Falkon extension that would synchronize bookmarks, history, tabs ans other essential data.

The extension will be based on the same XMPP system which is offered by Blasta.

So it will require an XMPP account to store the data?

(In reply to Justin Zobel from comment #7)
> So it will require an XMPP account to store the data?

Yes. The extension will require an XMPP account.

The specifications upon which the extensio be based upon be:
* XEP-0060: Publish-Subscribe (PubSub); and
* XEP-0163: Personal Eventing Protocol (PEP).
It means, that all data be stored within PubSub nodes of self XMPP account.

This is how it works with project Blasta which I have linked to.

Ah OK. I'll wait for something local or even Nextcloud based.
