Browser Storage

Overview

Browser Storage is a simple wrapper for localStorage, sessionStorage, and userscript storage (e.g., GM.getValue, GM.setValue).

Installation

Node

npm i @nicebuzzy/browser-storage

For development and testing in a Node environment, a localStorage mock is required.

Browser

<script type="module">
  import Storage from 'https://esm.run/@nicebuzzy/browser-storage'
</script>

Userscripts

// @require https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@nicebuzzy/browser-storage/dist/storage.umd.js

Usage

Local and Session Storage

const store = new Storage({ type: 'local' })

store.set('foo', 'bar')
store.set('baz', 'qux')

store.get('foo') // 'bar'
store.get('baz') // 'qux'
store.list() // { foo: 'bar', baz: 'qux' }

store.remove('baz')
store.get('baz') // undefined
store.list() // { foo: 'bar' }

store.clear()
store.list() // {}

Using scopes

The scope option allows customization of key storage:

const settings = new Storage({ type: 'local', scope: 'settings:', trim: false })

Scoped instances only work with keys that match their scope:

store.set('foo', 'bar')
settings.set('foo', 'bar')

store.list() // { foo: 'bar', 'settings:foo': 'bar' }
settings.list() // { 'settings:foo': 'bar' }

settings.clear()
settings.list() // {}
store.list() // { foo: 'bar' }

store.clear() // clears all keys, including scoped ones

Set the trim option to true to hide scope in outputs:

settings.set('foo', 'bar')
settings.list() // { foo: 'bar' }

Userscripts

Methods for userscripts return a promise. The scope is used as a nested object:

const store = new Storage({ type: 'userscript' })
const settings = new Storage({ type: 'userscript', scope: 'settings' })

await store.set('foo', 'bar')
await settings.set('foo', 'bar')

await store.list() // { foo: 'bar', settings: { foo: 'bar' } }
await settings.list() // { foo: 'bar' }
