VueStorageSync

A plugin to sync vue data to a storage system

What is it for?

VueStorageSync provides capability to Vue.js components to persist it's data to client storage (for now localStorage and sessionStorage).
It also provides possibility to use specific options component by component besides plugin registration options.
When called by a component the plugin will automatically store the specified properties to a selected storage system and mantain it updated. With this your component will behave as a keep-alive.

Live demo: geandre.github.io/vue-storage-sync/

Installing

npm install --save vue-storage-sync

Using

main.js

import VueStorageSync from "vue-storage-sync";

// Vue.use(VueStorageSync [, options={}]);
Vue.use(VueStorageSync);

Options

VueStorageSync accept an options object, this object can have the following properties:

• key Of type string that will be used as the default store key name if omitted 'vue-data-sync' will be assumed.
• duration An integer number of seconds that the storage must self keep. if omitted 0 will be assumed, this means to never expire.
• storage A string indicating what type of storage will be used, for now 'local' and 'session' are available, if omitted 'local' will be assumed.
• suffix A string to be appended to key, this is changeable at runtime by setting VueStorageSync.userDefaultOptions.suffix.

const options = {
  key: "vue-data-sync",
  duration: 0,
  storage: "local",
  suffix: ""
};

On component

Using preseted options

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      name: "Jhon Doe",
      birth: "1990-06-03"
    };
  },
  storage: ["name", "birth"]
};

Using a single storage system and customizing options on component

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      name: "Jhon Doe",
      birth: "1990-06-03"
    };
  },
  storage: {
    key: "my-key",
    storage: "local",
    duration: 0, // forever
    suffix: "user:6",
    entries: ["name", "birth"]
  }
};

Using multiple storage system and customizing options on component

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      name: "Jhon Doe",
      birth: "1990-06-03",
      chatOn: true
    };
  },
  storage: {
    local: {
      key: "my-key",
      duration: 0, // forever
      suffix: "user:6",
      entries: ["name", "birth"]
    },
    session: {
      key: "my-key",
      duration: 0, // forever, while the session is alive
      suffix: "user:6",
      entries: ["chatOn"]
    }
  }
};

The storage object can be directlly passed to vm.$storageSync function

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      name: "Jhon Doe",
      birth: "1990-06-03"
    };
  },
  mounted() {
    // Like this
    this.$storageSync(["name", "birth"]);
    // OR this.$storageSync({...});
};
