Chrome and Firefox advanced extension #825
Comments
Long time ago, i was also a regular user of this kind of add-on (with the del.icio.us plugin for Firefox), before to moving to Shaarli. Indeed i think that an intregrated browser based tool to manage (and use) saved links could be more efficient that a web based tool (in particular if you just want to keep and manage your bookmarks for yourself). |
I'm not sure to understand your request here. Would Shaarli results in the browser bar be mixed with your actual history and Google suggestion or would you use a special keyword? Would it returns the actual URL or a link to your shaare? Could you provide one or two use case examples? Also note that Shaarli supports OpenSearch, meaning that you can make a quick search by adding your instance as a search engine, apply a keyword like |
In the past, for delicious, they were a browser addon which was a kind of sync and manage tool. All bookmarks were very quickly usable as local bookmarks. |
@ArthurHoaro the Omnibar functionality usualy works in the way that you type a trigger, for example The Chrome extension 'Bookmarks Tagger' (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bookmarks-tagger/dpiecafonfminhngabegejbligdagjfc) works this way. The trigger is |
@alexisju Yes, I am aware of this addon, but it did not sync traditional Browser-Bookmarks as far as I can remember. It only allowed for direct access to your tag-tree and the submission of URLs. Bookmark Sync would NOT be a needed feature for a Shaarli browser extension, because there is no hierarchy or structure, only tags. Something like the tag-tree would of course be nice (see: http://web.archive.org/web/20111017153017/https://static-cdn.addons.mozilla.net/img/uploads/previews/full/24/24424.png?modified=1218135152), but not a necessity. |
Ideally, it should follow the Browser Extension format to ease supporting compatible browsers:
Edit by @nodiscc: |
I have not tested it yet but using the API instead of just relying on the "Add link" dialog (like the Shaarli addon does) looks promising, as it would allow live synchronization and more. |
Have you considered Floccus? It is a very nice extension, which supports Firefox/Chrome/Vivaldi. Syncs Bookmarks and Folders across any number of devices to Nextcloud/WebDAV/local file system. See this related request in Floccus for Shaarli support. |
This tool is awesome... if it only would have a proper browser extension. The extensions I found only replace the bookmarklet.
Things, a browser extension for Shaarli should have in my view:
Is something like this possible in the current state of development? I saw there is an API in development. Can it handle the things mentioned?
If someone is willing to do it, I would be happy to help with UI work.
