Some urls crash the bookmark sync on firefox #15

Closed calpaterson closed 4 years ago

calpaterson commented 4 years ago

Description

Firefox refuses to bookmark chrome://newtab and this crashes the entire bookmark sync

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install quarchive extension on chrome
  2. In chrome, bookmark chrome://newtab
  3. In chrome, bookmark http://example.com
  4. Install quarchive extension on firefox and wait for sync to complete

Expected result

At least http://example.com is now bookmarked locally

Actual result

Nothing is bookmarked locally and the extension has crashed

Additional details

It's worth considering how to make full sync resistant to this problem as there may be recurrances of other problem urls in the future.

Fixed - quarchive is now limited to URLs only, and within that only http and https schemes which any browser will support bookmarking.
