inspect-browser-storage v0.9.2

⚗️ inspect-browser-storage

With this package you can locally and programmatically modify the LocalStorage and SessionStorage of a browser. This also applies to an Browser based Electron app.

⚠️ The default paths currently belong to chromium, other browsers will be added in the next versions. But you can set dbPath option for other databases. ⚠️

Usage

Install package:

# npm
npm install inspect-browser-storage

# yarn
yarn install inspect-browser-storage

# pnpm
pnpm install inspect-browser-storage

Import:

// ESM
import { writeToStorage, readFromStorage } from 'inspect-browser-storage'

// CommonJS
const { writeToStorage, readFromStorage } = require('inspect-browser-storage')

readFromStorage(domain, key, options?)

Example:

const data = await readFromStorage('test-application.de', 'auth_token')
// -> Returns the value of the key 'auth_token' in the localStorage of 'https://test-application.de/'

Options:

• dbPath: (string) The domain in the storage.
• key: (string) the key of the item in storage
• options?: (object) Options are defaults and get merged with the default options.
  • dbPath: (string) Path to the database, default is the chromium path on your system
  • autoUnlink: (boolean) If true, the package will try to unlock the database LOCK File. Default is true
  • protocol: (string) Which protocol should be added to the domain, can be https:// or http://. Default is https://
