Name:

universal-storage

Installation

npm install --save universal-storage

Usage

In client-side code.

import { discardClientStorage, getClientStorage } from 'universal-storage';

let storage = getClientStorage(); // establishes a client storage singleton

storage.current.setItem( 'key', 'value' );
storage.current.getItem( 'key' ); // 'value'
storage.current.removeItem( 'key' );

storage.current.getItem( 'key' ); // undefined
storage.current.setItem( 'key', 'value2' );
storage.current.getItem( 'key' ); // 'value2'

discardClientStorage(); // destroys the current client storage singleton

storage.current.getItem( 'key' ); // error! cannot read getItem of undefined; reading 'storage.current'

storage = getClientStorage(); // reestablishes a client storage singleton

storage.current.getItem( 'key' ); // 'value2' 

In server-side code.

import { discardServerStorage, getServerStorage } from 'universal-storage';

let storage = getServerStorage(); // establishes a client storage singleton

storage.current.setItem( 'key', 'value', e.response );
storage.current.getItem( 'key', e.request ); // 'value'
storage.current.removeItem( 'key', 'value', e.response );

storage.current.getItem( 'key', e.request ); // undefined
storage.current.setItem( 'key', 'value2', e.response );
storage.current.getItem( 'key', e.request ); // 'value2'

discardServerStorage(); // destroys the current client storage singleton

storage.current.getItem( 'key', e.request ); // error! cannot read getItem of undefined; reading 'storage.current'

storage = getServerStorage(); // reestablishes a client storage singleton

storage.current.getItem( 'key', e.request ); // 'value2'
