How to store/backup library #1376

Closed afduggirala closed 1 month ago

afduggirala commented 3 months ago

Hello,

I wonder how one would store the Foliate library information as a backup in case my disk dies or when transfering to a new pc. I keep all my books in a single folder on my drive, but every time I reinstall my OS I find myself having to add all of my books to my library. I also loose all progress information for each book and bookmarks.

Is there a way to backup and restore all library information into a new installation of Foliate?

thank you,

See the FAQ:

Your reading progress, bookmarks, and annotations are saved in ~/.local/share/com.github.johnfactotum.Foliate.

If you're using the Flatpak version, they should be in ~/.var/app/com.github.johnfactotum.Foliate/data/com.github.johnfactotum.Foliate.
