**General rewording, proof-reading, deduplication, shortening, reordering, simplification, cleanup/formatting/standardization**
- standardize page names, rework documentation structure, update TOC - use same example paths everywhere - level 1 titles on all pages - fix broken links - .md suffix on all page links (works both from readthedocs and github repository views) **Server:** A full and concise installation guide with examples is a frequent request. The documentation should provide such a guide for basic installation needs, while explaining alternative/advanced configuration at the end. Links to reference guides and documentation should be used more frequently to avoid recommending an outdated or excessively complex configuration. - server: move most server-related info to server-configuration.md, cleanup/shorten - server: update list of php dependencies/libraries, link to composer.json - server: installation: support 3 install methods (from release zip, from sources, using docker) - server: installation: use rsync instead of mv as mv results will change depending of taget directory already existing or not - server: add example/basic usage of certbot - server, upgrade, installation: update file permissions setup, use sudo for upgrade operations in webserver document root - server: apache: add comments to configuration, fix and factorize file permissions setup, set cache-control header, deny access to dotfiles, add missing apache config steps, add http->https redirect example - server: nginx: refactor nginx configuration, add comments, DO log access to denied/protected files - server: add links to MDN for x-forwarded-* http headers explanation, cleanup/clarify robots.txt and crawlers section - server: bump file upload size limit to 100MB we have reports of bookmark exports weighing +40MB - i have a 13MB one here - server: simplify phpinfo documentation - server: move backup and restore information to dedicated page - docker: move all docker docs to Docker.md, simplify/ docker setup, add docker-compose.yml example, replace docker-101 with docker cheatsheet - troubleshooting: move all troubleshooting documentation to troubleshooting.md **Usage:** - index: add getting started section on index page - features/usage: move all usage-related documentation to usage.md, add links from the main feature list to corresponding usage docs, clarify/reword features list - shaarli configuration: add note about configuring from web interface **Removed:** - remove obsolete/orphan images - remove obsolete shaarchiver example - remove outdated "decode datastore content" snippet **Development:** - development: move development-related docs (static analysis, CI, unit tests, 3rd party libs, link structure/directory, guidelines, security....) to dev/ directory - development: Merge several pages to development.md - **Breaking change?:** remove mentions of 'stable' branch, switch to new branch/release model (master=latest commit, release=latest tag) - **Breaking change?:** refer to base sharing unit as "Shaare" everywhere (TODO: reflect changes in the code?) doc: update featues list/link to usage.md for details - development: directory structure: add note about required file permissions - .travis-ci.yml: add comments - .htaccess: add comment

1## Backup and restore the datastore file
2
3Backup the file `data/datastore.php` (by FTP or SSH). Restore by putting the file back in place.
4
5Example command:
6```bash
7rsync -avzP my.server.com:/var/www/shaarli/data/datastore.php datastore-$(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H%M).php
8```
9
10## Export links as...
11
12To export links as an HTML file, under _Tools > Export_, choose:
13
14- _Export all_ to export both public and private links
15- _Export public_ to export public links only
16- _Export private_ to export private links only
17
18Restore by using the `Import` feature.
19
20- This can be done using the [shaarchiver](https://github.com/nodiscc/shaarchiver) tool.
21
22Example command:
23```bash
24./export-bookmarks.py --url=https://my.server.com/shaarli --username=myusername --password=mysupersecretpassword --download-dir=./ --type=all
25```
26
27## Import links from...
28
29### Diigo
30
31If you export your bookmark from Diigo, make sure you use the Delicious export, not the Netscape export. (Their Netscape export is broken, and they don't seem to be interested in fixing it.)
32
33### Mister Wong
34
35See [this issue](https://github.com/sebsauvage/Shaarli/issues/146) for import tweaks.
36
37### SemanticScuttle
38
39To correctly import the tags from a [SemanticScuttle](http://semanticscuttle.sourceforge.net/) HTML export, edit the HTML file before importing and replace all occurences of `tags=` (lowercase) to `TAGS=` (uppercase).
40
41### Scuttle
42
43Shaarli cannot import data directly from [Scuttle](https://github.com/scronide/scuttle).
44
45However, you can use the third-party [scuttle-to-shaarli](https://github.com/q2apro/scuttle-to-shaarli)
46tool to export the Scuttle database to the Netscape HTML format compatible with the Shaarli importer.
47
48### Refind
49
50You can use the third-party tool [Derefind](https://github.com/ShawnPConroy/Derefind) to convert refind.com bookmark exports to a format that can be imported into Shaarli.
51
52## Import Shaarli links to Firefox
53
54- Export your Shaarli links as described above.
55 - For compatibility reasons, check `Prepend note permalinks with this Shaarli instance's URL (useful to import bookmarks in a web browser)`
56- In Firefox, open the bookmark manager (not the sidebar! `Bookmarks menu > Show all bookmarks` or `Ctrl+Shift+B`)
57- Select `Import and Backup > Import bookmarks in HTML format`
58
59Your bookmarks will be imported in Firefox, ready to use, with tags and descriptions retained. "Self" (notes) shaares will still point to the Shaarli instance you exported them from, but the note text can be viewed directly in the bookmark properties inside your browser. Depending on the number of bookmarks, the import can take some time.

63- [Bookmark Deduplicator](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmark-deduplicator/) - provides an easy way to deduplicate your bookmarks
64- [TagSieve](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tagsieve/) - browse your bookmarks by their tags
