when using slate-yjs and y-indexeddb，Data duplication on server restart

[LT1211]

Hi @BitPhinix

I have a similar issue when using slate-yjs with y-indexeddb. Each time the slate editor is mounted, the contents are duplicated. The indexeddb updates table also seems to double in size each time the page is loaded. I'm not doing anything special here. Just passing along the y doc which holds my sharedType...

This is frontend code

 useEffect(() => {
    new IndexeddbPersistence(docName, provider.document)
  }, [])

This is backend code

  async onLoadDocument(data) {
    if (data.document.isEmpty(data.documentName)) {
      const insertDelta = slateNodesToInsertDelta(initialValue)
      const sharedRoot = data.document.get(data.documentName, Y.XmlText) as unknown as Y.XmlText
      sharedRoot.applyDelta(insertDelta)
    }
    return data.document
  }

i am using hocuspocus as backend server, and here is my solution to fix the issue

• save document to mongo, it is important to translate buffer to base64 string

        const insertRst = await collection.insertOne(
            {
                rid: documentName,
                data: data.toString('base64'),
                create_at: Date.now(),
            },
            {}
        );

• load document from mongo

const fromBase64 = (str: string): Uint8Array =>
    new Uint8Array(Array.from(atob(str)).map((char) => char.charCodeAt(0)));

    async onLoadDocument(data) {
        if (data.document.isEmpty('content')) {
            const result = await selectYjsDocument(data.documentName);
            if (result) {
                Y.applyUpdate(
                    data.document,
                    fromBase64(result),
                    'snapshot-patch'
                );
            }
        }
        return data.document;
    }
