Other details
The code shows it always adds the non-existent categories:
I suggest caching the content (or hash) of the previously synced data and comparing it with the current sync, if the two are equal, overwrite remote data with local data instead of doing the merging operation.
Acknowledgements
- I have searched the existing issues and this is a new ticket, NOT a duplicate or related to another open or closed issue.
- I have written a short but informative title.
- I have gone through the FAQ and troubleshooting guide.
- I have updated the app to version 1.10.5.
- I have updated all installed extensions.
- I will fill out all of the requested information in this form.
Or include a device ID in the synced data. If the latest synced device is the current device, overwrite remote data.
That could work but you will still need to delete the category manually in your other devices, as far as I know I don't think the backup restore process account for the deleted category.
Another benefit is that this approach can bypass some of the restore processes, improving synchronization speed and reducing synchronization conflicts. To give an example, when synchronizing while reading, sometimes already-read chapters may become unread after restoration.
Opened #1154 feel free to use that and test it, the latest master version or develop branch in syncyomi (https://github.com/SyncYomi/SyncYomi) have the feature but you will need to build it manually I haven't pushed the release yet. Also probably need to delete the current sync data or api key and generate a new one. @Cologler
