Support Orion browser #17

Open bentsai opened 2 years ago

bentsai commented 2 years ago

Per https://browser.kagi.com/faq.html the history file is at:

~/Library/Application\ Support/Orion/Defaults/history

Ah not chromium based. that's interesting, and prob good for the industry. will need to dig in to see how they structure their history though. If it's the same as Safari then it should be very straightforward

iansinnott commented 2 years ago

Hm, accidentally closed

Looks like the history format is different than anything else we've integrated so far. Interesting, but will need some custom code for this

itsbrex commented 2 years ago

Intersting that it's actually differnet than Safari. I thought I read on the Orion forum that they used the same format. Hmmmm.

Are you sitll looking at this? @iansinnott I was thinking of looking into it, and then found this issue. Let me know.

iansinnott commented 2 years ago

not currently looking at this.

However, if you're interested in looking into this there are some options. The browser parrot system is actually extensible, although it does not provide the best developer experience (completely undocumented API for instance...).

option 1: create a new datasource plugin. this requires writing Clojure code to interact with the undocumented API, so may not be the best option.
option 2: write a script using any language / toolchain to pull data from orion and insert into into the sqlite database. inserting into the datasource_browsing_history table will be searchable from the UI

Thanks for the update. Option 2 sounds better. I'll take a look. Thanks!
