Merge Config

Open allo- opened this issue 10 years ago • 4 comments

A (maybe javascript only) function to merge an existing prefs.js with the generated options. Merging on the server side has the advantage that the settings can be integrated in the zip file.

  • Decide if this should be client-side (Javascript on the finish page) or server-side (file upload and storing the existing settings in the session on the start page).
  • Build a parser for prefs.js files in Javascript / Python
  • Allow the user to choose if their options or the new options should are preferred

For extensions one needs to check if the method for preinstalling extensions works when extensions are already installed. Otherwise users could just get a URL list for the extensions they selected.

Has this been achieved yet? Would be nice to keep some of my configs whilst also utilizing some of the configs this neat little tool offers.

No. And I wonder if it should be combined with providing own profiles (Sets of questions), which should allow profiles that are not the main focus to be provided by others (or inofficially provided by the project) like UI customizations.

That would definitely be neat!
