jsonify-storage v0.1.0

jsonify-storage

Introduction

There is a unfriendly case when we use the the native localStorage, such as

localStorage.setItem('foo', { a: 123 })
localStorage.getItem('foo') // => [object Object]

localStorage.setItem('bar', 123)
localStorage.getItem('bar') // => '123'

So, jsonify it!

Install

⚠Notice: Can only works in browser environment, other scene need define global variable to mock Storage.

// In node you have to write like this.

global.localStorage = yourLocalStorage
global.sessionStorage = yourSessionStorage

Node:

npm i -D jsonify-storage

Browser:

<script src="./dist/jsonify-storage.umd.min.js"></script>

Usage

Import in Node:

// es mode
import { local, session } from 'jsonify-storage'
// or cjs mode
const { local, session } = require('jsonify-storage')

In Browser:

const { local, session } = jsonifyStorage

• local means localStorage
• session means sessionStorage

Then you can use it like this:

local.set('foo', { a: 123 })
local.get('foo') // => { a: 123 }
local.get('foo').a === 123 // => true, will retain the type.

Payload will be json-stringified before save.

Raw data seems like this:

localStorage.getItem('foo') // => '{"a":123}'

If you try to get something can't parsed by JSON or not existed will return null

localStorage.setItem('bar', '我我我')
local.get('bar') // => null
local.get('baz') // => null
