Restore from Encryptic backup fail

See original GitHub issue

I use https://unstable.encryptic.org in many browsers (Brave, Chrome, Vivaldi, Opera), so I have made Brave the main one and did “Backup everything”.

Then I’ve created the same identity (d3) in Vivaldi (same name and key). Then I tried to “Restore from backup” (Encryptic-backup-d3.zip). Nothing happens in interface. I got in console: Снимок экрана 2019-04-11 в 14 12 29 (many lines of such) I clicked “Close”, but “All Notes” are empty. Even after refresh and closing the tab and enter the site again. Application DBs (in my case that’s lav-d3, lav-default and notes-db) are empty.

This has place also at https://app.encryptic.org and in standalone app. I use Mac OSX 10.10.5, but I think that it’s not about the OS.

The most immediate issue is that the wrong part of the path is being used as the key to determine which files are which. I’ve found and fixed that issue. However, any notes I import are blank.

I think there’s something else going on with the import. I wrote a command line decryption script to test exported notes and they’re looking fine, but if I import the exported notes and then export them a second time, they come back looking like:

{"title":"","content":"","tags":[]}

Which is definitely wrong, and definitely would explain what I’m seeing.

@dayfuaim are the notes you import persisting after you close/reopen the browser window?

Yes. I have verified it in several browsers (Brave, Firefox, Opera…).

The only thing is wrong (IMHO): after import I see notification “Import is successful… . Reloading the window.” but no reloading happens.

The rest is very good. Dropbox, RemoteStorage, import – everything works (https://unstable.encryptic.org/ and locally built version). Thank you @daed 👍

I think I should close this now.
