Export all data #1018

Open codewizkid opened 3 years ago

codewizkid commented 3 years ago

Hello again again,

Sorry to keep spaming with ideas, but this app could be game changing for me, so I want to help as much as possible. Anyway, this idea is adding a export all data option that will let you export you subscriptions, playlists, history etc. to one file. Then you can just take that file and import it in any other FreeTube app and you'll never lose all you data!

I was basically looking for this option I believe. The possibility to import and export my profile(s) settings in case I, for example, change laptop or have to reset it or whatever.

I believe there isn't such an option so far since this thread is still open?

yonderbread commented 3 years ago

Yes please! Possibly storing all settings in a config file of some sort would be fantastic. I'd like to be able to store my FreeTube preferences alongside my dotfiles, and I'm sure many other people would appreciate the ability to do this also. Please consider implementing this idea.

All of the above plus having it importable/exportable via URL, so you can point to it directly on the app as a URL (not necessarily local filesystem-based only).

This would be useful for moving 'Distraction Free Settings' between devices. The list of hidden channels/keywords could get quite long, and as of now needs to be done manually.
