[Zen Browser] Bookmarks / Profile Selection Issue

Open theherk opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Extension

https://www.raycast.com/Keyruu/zen-browser

Raycast Version

1.84.3

macOS Version

15.0.1

Description

The only bookmarks shown to me in "Search Bookmarks" are the 5 default bookmarks. I'm not sure where they're coming from. I have one profile, and one profile directory. It has these default bookmarks deleted and several others created. The history in "Search History" and "New Tab" are correct, though.

Steps To Reproduce

I'm really not sure how to reproduce this one, but I've provided as much information as I have.

Current Behaviour

I get the default bookmarks from a profile that doesn't exist. Maybe a cache thing.

Expected Behaviour

I can search my bookmarks.

Oh sorry for the ping to the firefox extension maintainers. How can I remove you from that?

But about the issue: I'll have to check this, maybe it only shows me the bookmarks it synced from Firefox and not the new ones I added in Zen.

At some point, with no changes from me, it added the proper bookmarks. However, it still has the default bookmarks even though they're removed, and doesn't keep up-to-date. Since there is no cache for the plugin, I don't know how it is updated or even can get out-of-sync, but it does seem to lag behind actual updates to bookmarks. For instance, I've added a new bookmark and it doesn't show. Maybe in some days, it will.

Wait, just looking through the source code, it looks like this reads bookmarks from /bookmarkbackups rather than from the sqlite db, so they will only ever be up-to-date with the backup file. Maybe that should change?

In any case the workaround is to take a backup, which no matter where you set it, will also create a backup in the profile directory and update the plugins results. I'll leave it to you if this behavior should change.

Yup, this is how the current Firefox extension handles it, I have no idea why. Will create a PR with a fix that should display all bookmarks and be up to date with the ones in the browser :D
