Please allow syncing of AutoPinTab data [Feature request]

[hub2git]

Dear @nicorac,

Thank you for a most useful extension.

Could I kindly ask you to implement syncing of AutoPinTab data between devices?

This way, when I sign into my Firefox account at work or at a library, I don't have to customize my AutoPinTabs again.

My request was inspired after the Firefox Developers implemented syncing for Multi-Account Containers.

Thank you very much.

This is something I have little to no experience in, but it surely worths a try.
Will start a branch for it, stay tuned.

PS: if you already have experience and want to collaborate, feel free to send a PR...

[hub2git]

Thanks. 👍 I'll stay tuned. :)

Unfortunately, I have zero experience. :(

At least an option to import / export

Just released version 1.2.0 with new Import/Export settings feature.

I'm leaving this issue open because I'd like to investigate more on your suggestion about configuration sync... 😉

[hub2git]

Thanks @nicorac . It would really be cool to get the sync implemented.

[insign]

Thanks too.

@insign, i've exported my config JSON file. But where on the web can we save it to for easy importing?
I mean... I can save it to my GoogleDrive or email it to myself... but since it's not private stuff, i don't mind just.

I've attached it to this comment of mine. I added the ".txt" extension because github doesn't like the ".json" extension. Just remove the ".txt" part to use/import.

@hub2git I use it in some "configs" folder inside my megasync. But can be with dropbox, google drive, one drive, icloud, etc.
