Ember-localstorage-adapter

Store your ember application data in localStorage.

Compatible with Ember Data 1.13 and above.

NOTE: New versions of the localStorage adapter are no longer compatible with older versions of Ember Data. For older versions, checkout the pre-beta branch.

Usage

Include this addon in your app with ember install ember-localstorage-adapter and then like all adapters and serializers:

// app/serializers/application.js
import { LSSerializer } from 'ember-localstorage-adapter';
 
export default LSSerializer.extend();
 
// app/adapters/application.js
import LSAdapter from 'ember-localstorage-adapter';
 
export default LSAdapter.extend({
  namespace: 'yournamespace'
});

Local Storage Namespace

All of your application data lives on a single localStorage key, it defaults to DS.LSAdapter but if you supply a namespace option it will store it there:

import LSAdapter from 'ember-localstorage-adapter/adapters/ls-adapter';
 
export default LSAdapter.extend({
  namespace: 'my app'
});

Models

Whenever the adapter returns a record, it'll also return all relationships, so do not use {async: true} in your model definitions.

Namespace

If your model definition has a url property, the adapter will store the data on that namespace. URL is a weird term in this context, but it makes swapping out adapters simpler by not requiring additional properties on your models.

const List = DS.Model.extend({
  // ...
});
List.reopen({
  url: '/some/url'
});
export default List;

Quota Exceeded Handler

Browser's localStorage has limited space, if you try to commit application data and the browser is out of space, then the adapter will trigger the QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR event.

import DS from 'ember-data';
DS.Store.adapter.on('QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR', function(records){
  // do stuff
});
 
DS.Store.commit();

Local Storage Unavailable

When localStorage is not available (typically because the user has explicitly disabled it), the adapter will keep records in memory. When the adapter first discovers that this is the case, it will trigger a persistenceUnavailable event, which the application may use to take any necessary actions.

adapter.on('persistenceUnavailable', function() {
  // Maybe notify the user that their data won't live past the end of the current session
});
