Motivation

When different Website domains need a same-origin storage container, we have to use iframe's same-origin policy Web local storage solution. localForage is an excellent storage library, it supports IndexedDB, WebSQL and localStorage, but it can't solve this problem directly.

That's why we have this library for same-origin storage based on localForage.

Installation

``sh
yarn add origin-storage
`

Usage and Example

- Use OriginStorage on http://localhost:9000/storage.js:

`ts
import { OriginStorage } from 'origin-storage';

const originStorage = new OriginStorage();
`

> If you need to set up a more secure origin control, you can set targetOrigin like this.

`ts
const originStorage = new OriginStorage({
targetOrigin: 'http://example.com',
});
`

- Create and host a Web page(http://localhost:9000/storage.html) containing JavaScript file storage.js.

- Use OriginStorageClient on a cross-domain page:

`ts
import { OriginStorageClient } from 'origin-storage';

const originStorageClient = new OriginStorageClient({
uri: 'http://localhost:9000/storage.html',
});
`
