Taskler


Taskler is a simple text editor web page. It's available as a website, Chrome extension and a Firefox extension.

You can use shortcuts like cmd+B for bold, cmd+I for italics, cmd+U for underline and cmd+K for links.

## Data recovery
For some reason, Brave deleted all my localStorage data, including Taskler's. This does not seem to be a problem with Taskler. If you have a backup, Taskler's data can be restored. Brave stores localStorage at in the following folder in my case:
```
~/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/Local Storage/leveldb
```
For Chrome, it's this folder in my case:
```
~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Profile 1/Local Storage/leveldb
```
You should be able to simply restore this folder. Keep in mind that this folder doesn't just contain Taskler's data.

What I did to restore my Taskler data was this:
1. Restore the aforementioned folder into `~/Downloads`
2. Install [golang](https://golang.org/)
3. Install [leveldb-tools](https://github.com/rchunping/leveldb-tools) by running `go get github.com/rchunping/leveldb-tools`
4. Export the database into plaintext format by running `leveldb-tools -dbpath ~/Downloads/leveldb -action export -file ~/Downloads/dumpfile.txt`
5. Open `~/Downloads/dumpfile.txt` and search for `quill-state`. If there are multiple instances of that, you might be able to tell which one is correct by the text after it.
6. Select and copy the object that is after `quill-state`, starting with `{` and ending with `}`. Unfortunately you'll have to figure out where that is. In my case, this text came after the object: `KL:=_chrome-extension://jnibmbpjkpfgaefgbnaneldfbfecpjih`.
7. In Taskler, open the developer tools and go to the `Application` tab. In the sidebar, open the item found inside `Local Storage`.
8. You'll see a table with `Key` and `Value` columns. Double-click the value of the `quill-state` key and pase in the object.
