Maybe something like this:
function bookmarkFoldersAsTags(aTags, aBookmark) {
if (!aTags)
aTags = [];
if (!aBookmark.parentId)
return;
function getBookmarkCallback(aResults) {
var mark = aResults[0];
aTags.push(mark.title);
bookmarkFoldersAsTags(aTags, mark);
}
chrome.bookmarks.get(aBookmark.parentId, getBookmarkCallback);
}
I just wrote it here without trying and I haven't used the bookmarks API
yet. Just used the code you provided and tweaked it a bit to be recursive.
You should end up with the aTags array filled with your tags, which you may
join later. Hopefully this helps, or maybe someone else has a better/working
alternative.
Good night!
