Firefox Sync

[ghost]

It would be helpful to sync the settings across browsers.

Ah, this is a great idea! I'll try to get this in place right away. Thanks, should hopefully be a minor change

[ghost]

I might be mistaken but it seems that with FF58 it is no longer syncing?

Hmm, strange, thats definitely unexpected! I'm still only calling the sync API (e.g. https://github.com/snyderp/web-api-manager/blob/master/add-on/lib/storage.js#L10).

Can you confirm that you're seeing the problem (checking you're logged into your Mozilla account, that other extensions / settings are syncing properly, etc)? And if you're still seeing the issue, I'll dig in deeper and maybe open an bug with Mozilla if needed.

Thanks for bringing it up!

Indeed rather unexpected. Since by own stupidity I erased my FF profiles and thus had to sync everything back into maiden installations/profiles of FF 58 / 59 / 60. All browser data/settings/password did sync ok and and also the FoxyProxy extension but WAM unfortunately not.

The only other reason i could think of is the new cookie manager installed. Seen there and also in this cookie manager the ability as of FF58 to clean indexed/local storage, though that would/should either happening on tab close and/or browser close.

Not sure how this could potentially impact another extension like WAM, considering that browser session cookies to be cleaned. And as mentioned above the other data been synced just fine. Not sure though where/how the FoxyProxy is storing its data.

WIN10 _x64 1709 16299.125 with FF58/59/60 _x64
WAM 0.9.25

Custom configuations (Templates & Custom blocked features) being synced ok but (strangely) none of the remainder of the settings

[pes10k]

Hmm, this is extremely strange to me. I don't have a good guess for whats going on. Would you mind exporting and sharing all the rules you have configured (if you'd prefer, I can provide a more private method to share than here). That might give me some hint to whats going on.

And also a heads up, NavigatorLanguage.language isn't a method, so the extension won't help there (at least for the time being…)

[ghost]

Hmm, got the syntax wrong there it seems, should apparently read navigator.language
This should do it then #69 (isn't a method)?
Thanks for mentioning it

Now, that aside those are the rules currently set

[{"p":"(default)","s":[1,2,3,4,5,6,10,11,18,20,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,34,35,36,38,39,40,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,62,64,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72,73,75,76,77,78,79,80],"f":["navigator.language"]}]

Seems that saving the template is a bug by itself and not related to sync, hence opened another issue #77

Syncing though for the remained of the features is not working. Would be glad if there is anything else to help debugging the issue.

[pes10k]

Well GD :-/

Thanks for the bug report, I'll figure out #77 tonight, and will hopefully get the sync stuff worked out ASAP!

@n8v8R A little embarrassed here, but hoping I could ask for your help here in recreating this issue. I now have two machines, both with FF installed, and both logged into the same mozilla sync account. What can I do to

1. get the Web API Manager settings to Sync
2. try and recreate the issue you're describing

I'll get this sorted out somehow :)

[ghost]

How about some well deserved rest after the thesis and work on WAM and other things in life??? ;)

Commonly FF would sync at least upon boot and shutdown, but you can invoke sync any time by clicking here.

[pes10k]

Ha you're very kind to say! Makes me think @n8v8R might either be my advisor or my mom :P

but point well taken. I'll deal with sync issues later :) Thanks again!
