ngx-reactive-webstorage v1.1.0

Reactive WebStorage for Angular 4 / 5

RxJS powered Reactive storage with the feature of synchronization between LocalStorage API.

This library is inspired by the idea from @ngrx/store. The scope of the @ngrx/store has been narrowed to simple add/remove operations for the sake of the quick implementation and less boilerplate. All the methods from WebStorage API has been preserved within the library. (setItem,getItem,removeItem)

Setup

Install via npm :

npm install ngx-reactive-webstorage --save

ReactiveWebStorageModule should be imported in app.module.ts.

import { ReactiveWebStorageModule } from 'ngx-reactive-webstorage';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    ReactiveWebStorageModule,
    ...
  ]
  ...
})
export class AppModule {}

If LocalStorage are to be used, localstorage keys that will be used should be defined to synchronize localstorage and reactive Store at startup.

import { ReactiveWebStorageModule } from 'ngx-reactive-webstorage';

// set localstorage keys to sync with at startup
export const storageKeys = ["user", "token"];

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    ReactiveWebStorageModule.setLocalStorageKeys(keys),
    ...
  ]
  ...
})
export class AppModule {}

Usage

Now you just have to inject the service where you need it :

import { LocalStorage, SessionStorage } from 'ngx-reactive-webstorage';

@Component({
...
})
export class AppComponent {
  user: Observable<string>;
  constructor(private localStorage: LocalStorage, private sessionStorage: SessionStorage) {
    this.user = this.localStorage.getItem("user"); // { name:"Thomas", surname: "Anderson" }
  }
  
  saveUser(user: any) {
    this.localStorage.setItem("user", user);
  }
  
  removeUser() {
    this.localStorage.removeItem("user");
  }
  
}

<p *ngIf="user | async as user">Welcome {{ user.name }}</p>
