Elektra  0.8.21
Plugin: mozprefs

This plugin works on Mozilla preference files and is used in Elektra’s Firefox autoconfig script.

Preference Types

Only Keys below one of these points are valid, everything else will be dropped

Data Types

Hierarchy

In Mozilla preference files . is used to separate sections, while elektra uses /. For simplification, and because / isn't allowed in preference keys, the plugin treats . and / equally.

kdb set system/prefs/lock/a/lock/key lock
kdb set system/prefs/lock/a/lock.key lock
kdb set system/prefs/lock/a.lock.key lock

will all result in lockPref("a.lock.key", "lock");

Example

```

Backup-and-Restore:/examples/prefs

sudo kdb mount prefs.js /examples/prefs mozprefs

kdb setmeta user/examples/prefs/lock/a/lock/key type boolean kdb set /examples/prefs/lock/a/lock/key true kdb setmeta user/examples/prefs/pref/a/default/key type string kdb set /examples/prefs/pref/a/default/key "i'm a default key" kdb setmeta user/examples/prefs/user/a/user/key type integer kdb set /examples/prefs/user/a/user/key 123

kdb export user/examples/prefs ini #> [lock/a/lock] #> # type = boolean #> key = true #> [pref/a/default] #> # type = string #> key = i'm a default key #> [user/a/user] #> # type = integer #> key = 123

cat kdb file user/examples/prefs #> lockPref("a.lock.key", true); #> pref("a.default.key", "i'm a default key"); #> user_pref("a.user.key", 123);
