This command imports / restores the Firefox profile from the S3 Restic repository, if it exists. In order to use this
|
||
|
|
command for the first time, you should initialize Firefox by opening the application. You should also customize
|
||
|
|
the application by applying your preferred settings (i.e. customize it how you want it to open in the future). Then, after making
|
||
|
|
any changes you wish to be saved, you can backup the Firefox profile to the user's S3 bucket
|
||
|
|
by running the `firefox:profile:backup` task. After this is done, you can restore the application
|
||
|
|
settings by running this command (i.e. `firefox:profile:restore`).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Firefox backup is encrypted with the same key that Chezmoi uses (stored in `~/.config/age/chezmoi.txt`, by default).
|
||
|
|
Since the backup leverages Restic, you can leverage all the functionality that Restic offers if something goes awry.
