When we start syncing desktop bookmarks over to Android Firefox, the bookmarks list is going to get very long, drowning mobile-created bookmarks in all of the bookmarks from the user's desktop system(s). The way we dealt with this in XUL Fennec was to show, in the "bookmarks" list view, a folder called "Desktop Bookmarks" at the top of the list. All desktop bookmarks, in their three top-level folders (unsorted, menu, toolbar) were in there, leaving your "mobile" bookmarks (i.e. the ones bookmarked locally) at the top level. We should do this in the native as well, I think.
Right now, we show all non-folder bookmarks from desktop and mobile in a flat alphabetically ordered list under the Bookmarks tab in awesomescreen. The DB backend is folder-aware IS aware of the folders though. So, this bug is about implementing the folder navigation UI to go under the Bookmarks tab. This is a non-trivial task and I suggest us to fix it post-1.0.
If we do need to wait until post Fx11 for true folders (which I think wd do), then I think we need to only show "mobile" bookmarks for Fx11. Flooding the flat list with desktop bookmarks would be less desirable, IMO. Desktop bookmarks will "appear" in the Top Sites list as part of searches.

I worry that people will keep looking to see if their bookmarks are synced yet, and think that it's just not working.
I think this should be a higher priority. If we really just need to have the desktop bookmarks in a top level folder, is that too hard/time-consuming to do for 11?
(In reply to Madhava Enros [:madhava] from comment #5) > I think this should be a higher priority.

All of Fennec's bookmarks live in a single folder, tidily predetermined, and Sync works with that. (This is what XUL Fennec does, by the way.) My personal opinion is that it's a big enough UX win to warrant the work, but of course I'm lacking the context for the rest of the Fennec project, so that doesn't count for much!

Very likely, and a support headache.
OS: Mac OS X → Android
Hardware: x86 → ARM
Summary: keep desktop (synced) bookmarks in a folder → Bookmarks UX: display mobile and desktop bookmarks separately
FWIW - this is what this looks like in XUL Fennec: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9414926/for%20bugs/Screenshot_2012-01-26-15-57-30.png And then, a level in: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9414926/for%20bugs/Screenshot_2012-01-26-15-59-28.png (but I don't think we'd need to do this for the first version, if it's too much -- most important thing is some segregation of local and synced bookmarks)
Whiteboard: [MTD]
Again, for reference, here's the kind of thing people will be seeing after a sync if we don't do anything about it: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9414926/for%20bugs/Screenshot_2012-01-26-17-33-45.png
If this is a beta blocker, I guess the priority should be raised?

Need to think about what to do with imported XUL bookmarks, which might also have come from Sync. Profile Migration currently doesn't try to preserve folder structure.
(In reply to Gian-Carlo Pascutto (:gcp) from comment #10) > Need to think about what to do with imported XUL bookmarks, which might also > have come from Sync. Profile Migration currently doesn't try to preserve > folder structure. Oh dear. Yeah, that would be problematic; the users' entire set of bookmarks would be duplicated on first sync. They need to preserve GUID, URI, title, modified time, and parent to avoid headaches, and the GUIDs for special folders need to be transformed from the Places hierarchy. Preserving tags etc. as well, such that our notion of record equality applies, will avoid some extra work for Sync. My notes on the translation: https://github.com/mozilla-services/android-sync/blob/develop/src/main/java/org/mozilla/gecko/sync/repositories/android/RepoUtils.java#L75 E.g., the Unsorted Bookmarks folder needs to be stored with GUID "unfiled" in the Fennec DB, and records that referred to it need to be altered accordingly. I'm happy to advise on this if you need me.
>They need to preserve GUID, URI, title, modified time, and parent to avoid >headaches, Not possible right now. BrowserDB only exposes URL and title. In any case it doesn't have more than this to work with: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Browser.BookmarkColumns.html I have a bug about migrating Sync settings from XUL. How about this: if the user has a Sync account, we do *not* Migrate his XUL profile.
As discussed in IRC: Fennec doesn't ship with a user-visible switch for global DB right now, so having migration code work at the lowest common denominator is gently harmful. My suggestion is to alter the migration code to: * Pull more data out of Places * Write into the ContentProvider interface exposed by Fennec. That way we can include GUIDs, modification times, folder positions, etc. etc. Essentially, turning part of this: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/base/ProfileMigrator.java#148 into this: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/mobile/android/base/sync/repositories/android/AndroidBrowserRepositoryDataAccessor.java#104 We lose the granularity of history visits, but I expect Sync will be able to recover those. It might even be possible to conditionalize on localDB, if you want to avoid bitrotting. If you'd rather not do this work (I think it's valuable, because it will reduce the number of writes on a first sync, and it'll seamlessly support a hierarchical bookmarks view as soon as that arrives), then in the mean time it's better to not migrate bookmarks and data for any user who's ever had Sync set up on their phone. (You should still migrate passwords, prefs, etc. of course.) Still happy to help with this :D
Just to be blindingly obvious, this has a couple of strings; I'm not sure how many of them come over via sync (i.e. as folder names) vs. being strings we ship in the product, but they are: Desktop Bookmarks Unsorted Bookmarks Bookmarks Menu Bookmarks Toolbar These are the same as were in XUL Fennec.
As a fallback position, if folders really cannot happen in the fx11 timeframe, we could do this: - divide the bookmarks list into sections, as we do for History (i.e. Today, Yesterday, etc.) - the first section would be your local "mobile" bookmarks - the second section has a header that reads "Desktop Bookmarks" - the second section contains the flat list of desktop bookmarks (even though we have the folder structure in the database) This gets the flood of desktop stuff out of the way, at least. And then we do foldering later.

I can take this. So, do we just want to do Madhava's idea from comment 15? Do those strings exist somewhere for me to use, or will I need to make new strings? I can also explore making those sections collapsible, as described on IRC.

You'd then be using an ExpandableListView which gives the collapsible groups for free. - If you want to disable the collapsible behaviour in ExpandableListView, you can override clicks on the groups (see how the History tab in AwesomeBarTabs is implemented) - You'll have to tweak the BrowserDB API so that you can get cursor for bookmarks in certain categories. Something like: getTopLevelBookmarkFolders() and get getBookmarksForCategory(categoryId) should do it. You'll have to find a sane enough behavior for the AndroidBrowserDB implementation though as Android's DB doesn't support folders. Maybe do something that just shows all bookmarks in a flat list.
Attached patch WIP (obsolete) — Splinter Review
This seems to mostly work, but I'm having trouble finding a way to ensure that our "Mobile Bookmarks" folder is always the top-most group. Do you know if there's a way to sort folders alphabetically, but then move one to the top? Unfortunately, I think I may be running into a sync bug - before setting up sync, bookmarking a page adds it to the "Mobile Bookmarks" folder as expected, but after syncing, I have a "Mobile Bookmarks" folder that appears in the middle of the list, and it only contains "Firefox: Support" and "Firefox: Welcome" links that probably ended up in my sync data from an old mobile profile (although on desktop, my "Mobile Bookmarks" folder contains new pages I've bookmarked with Fennec native). I'm also ending up with an empty and untitled folder. I'm not sure if these issues are due to syncing with my crufty old sync data, but it's something we should address. (I just stubbed out the APIs I added to BrowserDB in AndroidBrowserDB to avoid errors in there, but based on conversation on IRC today it sounds like we're probably going to get rid of that, which will make this folder business easier.)

One option if to fetch Mobile folder in one query, and the rest of the folders in a separate query using a where clause like "where GUID != MOBILE_FOLDER_GUID. Then you create a MatrixCursor[1] and add the rows in the order you want. You could also come up with a smarter sortOrder clause that does that for you.

> Does it only happen for mobile bookmarks? I thought sync would set title for > all folders. Double-check with rnewman. This might be a sync bug. If there's a title, we'll set it. But in this case the "mobile" folder is managed by createMobileBookmarksFolder in BrowserProvider. Sadly, that method doesn't set a parent or title :( :( Filed Bug 724045. Sync will set one the first time it downloads another device's Mobile Bookmarks folder, but that relies on you already having used XUL Fennec sometime in the past. Sync also has code to insert a Mobile Bookmarks folder with a title and a parent, but of course Fennec will likely get there first. > You probably want to also make sure you're only getting the toplevel folders > here? Something like Bookmarks.PARENT = null. This way you avoid fetching > sub-folders under Desktop Bookmarks, for example. No parent should be null, save for the root (0). Arguably that shouldn't be null, either :) Top-level folders (toolbar, etc.) should have parent with guid "places". You can also hard-code the list. Here's our default folder structure: public static final Map<String, String> SPECIAL_GUID_PARENTS; static { HashMap<String, String> m = new HashMap<String, String>(); m.put("places", null); m.put("menu", "places"); m.put("toolbar", "places"); m.put("tags", "places"); m.put("unfiled", "places"); m.put("mobile", "places"); SPECIAL_GUID_PARENTS = Collections.unmodifiableMap(m); }

It looks like I was making an expandable section for the root node, which has no title. I won't do this. (No bookmarks should be children of this root node, right? I assume bookmarks filed without a specified parent would be children of "Unsorted Bookmarks"/"unfiled".)

Just use same try block than code below? This ViewBinder class is kinda confusing - it's called for both the group header views, as well as the child views. For child views, we'd be looking for a URL, and for group header views we'd be looking for a GUID. So, I can't actually put these in the same try block, since if we're updating a group header view, it would throw for a URL, but return a value for a GUID.

Once again, this is the problem I was talking about regarding this ViewBinder being used for both group header and child views, so a group header will throw when trying to get a favicon, but we won't want to return false, since we're setting a value for a different index in that case.
Attached patch patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
In BookmarksViewBinder, I decided to use getColumnIndex instead of getColumnIndexOrThrow to avoid all the try/catch blocks, and I'm just checking that index to know which view we're updating. I used a MatrixCursor to ensure that the mobile bookmarks folder is on top. This feels really verbose - I'm not sure if there's a better way to do this, or if that's just Java :) As suggested, I'm just ignoring sub-folders, and I'm just making all folders into top-level groups. I think all the sync issues I found are filed and/or fixed. This works really well with the build I just made from the latest m-c!

Based on some discussion in IRC, given that we're just going with a flat list within the top-level "Desktop Bookmarks" category (which is after the "Mobile Bookmarks" category), I'd like to see that flat list ordered this way: - bookmarks from the "Bookmarks Toolbar" folder - bookmarks from the "Bookmarks Menu" folder - bookmarks from the "Unsorted" folder
> - bookmarks from the "Bookmarks Toolbar" folder Transitive parent GUID = "toolbar" > - bookmarks from the "Bookmarks Menu" folder … "menu" > - bookmarks from the "Unsorted" folder … "unfiled". Bear in mind that if you flatten a whole tree, it makes sense to (a) sort the contents, and (b) remove duplicates.
Attached patch patch v2Splinter Review
As discussed on IRC, this patch simplifies things to make only "Mobile Bookmarks" and "Desktop Bookmarks" sections. Since I mostly copied AwesomeCursorViewBinder to make the ViewBinder in my previous patch, I decided to just extend that class to handle the new BookmarksListAdapter. Also, since I'm sure the groups have titles now that I'm setting them myself, we don't need to have an empty title check for group headers. I tried to keep this as simple as possible, so we can push things like making a better expandable group header UI and sorting the bookmarks differently to follow-ups.

Following conversation with Madhava on IRC, I tried to sort by DATE_CREATED, but since we don't sync that value, that doesn't work well, so I'm going to change that to DATE_MODIFIED, which accomplishes the same idea. Perhaps we want to reverse the order, so that your most recently modified bookmarks are at the top. Madhava, what do you think of that?

Comment on attachment 594789 [details] [diff] [review] patch v2 Margaret says the click handler only applies to children, not the group headers. Giving r+ as this was the only major concern I had. It would be nice if the nits are fixed though.

Comment on attachment 594789 [details] [diff] [review] patch v2 [Approval Request Comment] User impact if declined: Can't distinguish mobile/desktop bookmarks Testing completed (on m-c, etc.): Yes, some regressions found, so we'll want to land those follow-up bugs with this patch (and make sure we caught all the regressions) Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): Potentially more regressions, but the alternative is a big unsorted pile of bookmarks

Comment on attachment 594789 [details] [diff] [review] patch v2 Clearing approval for Aurora 12 and Beta 11 because we are not currently planning a Native Fennec release of these versions. If this changes in the future, we will likely do a mass uplift of all native fennec changes. For now, let's get these bugs off the channel triage radar. [Filter on the string "mbrubeck-bugspam" if you want to delete all of these emails at once.]
