Svelte Local Storage Store
A thin wrapper on top of a Svelte writable store, backing up to local storage with built-in event handling to sync across multiple tabs.
Installation
npm install -D @onsetsoftware/svelte-local-storage-store
Usage
Basic
import { localStorageStore } from '@onsetsoftware/svelte-local-storage-store';
const countStore = localStorageStore('count', 0);
Async
import { localStorageStore } from '@onsetsoftware/svelte-local-storage-store';
const timerStore = localStorageStore('timer', 0, (set) => {
let timer = timerStore.get();
const interval = setInterval(() => {
set(++timer);
}, 1000);
return () => clearInterval(interval);
});
API
The localStorageStore
function takes three arguments:
key
- The key to use for local storageinitialValue
- The initial value to use if the key is not found in local storagestart
- An optional function that will be called when the store is first subscribed to. It will be passed aset
function that can be used to update the store. It should return a function that will be called when the store is unsubscribed from.
This is essentially the same API as the writable
function from Svelte's svelte/store
package, with the addition of the key
argument.
Note Subsequent calls to
localStorageStore
with the samekey
will return the same store instance. If you want to delete the store from local storage, you can calldestroyLocalStorageStore(key)
.If this cache doesn't work for you, please can use the
LocalStorageStore
class directly to manage your own stores. It takes the same 3 arguments as thelocalStorageStore
function.
The localStorageStore
function returns a Svelte store that can be used in the same way as any other Svelte store and which implements the Writable
interface.
const countStore = localStorageStore('count', 0);
countStore.set(1);
countStore.update((count) => count + 1);
countStore.subscribe((value) => {
console.log(value);
});
It also exposes an additional get
method that can be used to retrieve the current value of the store without subscribing to it.
const countStore = localStorageStore('count', 0);
countStore.get(); // => 0
Finally, it exposes a detach
method that can be used to remove the key/value pair from local storage.
const countStore = localStorageStore('count', 0);
// localStorage.getItem('count') => 0
countStore.detach();
// localStorage.getItem('count') => undefined
