How to take backup of Tomboy notes

There are two ways to backup the tomboy notes

Method 1

In tomboy application itself there is the option to export notes as html files.

• In the Menus >> Tools >> Export All Notes To HTML
• Now you can save the files in your desired path. But you cannot import this backup in another system or in the same system in future. You can only read this as html view.

If you want to import it again in another system ,of course you can achieve it through the second method I have described below

Method 2:

Another way is you can backup all source files from the shared installation path. In this method you can import files into another one system’s tomboy in the same directory.

The source path is /home/<user>/.local/share/tomboy/

cp /home/<user>/.local/share/tomboy/ /home/Documents/backupfolder

Here <user> is the name of the user who logged in into the linux system.

That’s it simple.
