Vault is an API to store Key-Value pairs as true data types. It can utilize localStorage, sessionStorage, and cookies in the Browser. In node, it uses a file at the root of the project (redis support coming soon).
It handles JSON objects, arrays, booleans, numbers, and even returns undefined and null accurately.
npm install vault.js
bower install vault.js
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vault.js/1.0.3/vault.min.js"></script>
- [1.0.0] Memory Storage. Automatic cleanup (expired items removed in the background). Moves data from one storage to another if the same var is set with different config.
- [0.1.4] Support for use server-side added- writes data to .vault.json at the root level
- [0.1.0] localStorage and sessionStorage support the path param
- add redis as a storage option
- handle storage limit errors
- add support to request more storage
- handle storage events
- add server-side storage for node- save data to a json file
git clone [email protected]:jimmybyrum/vault.js.git
cd vault.js
npm install
npm run build
Vault.set(String key, Mixed value, Object optional_config);
if node
if config.expires exists and equals "session"
use Memory
else
use File
else if config.expires exists and localStorage is supported, then
use localStorage
else if sessionStorage is supported, then
use sessionStorage
else
use cookies
or, if you want to specify which storage to use:
// client side
Vault.Cookie.set(...);
Vault.Session.set(...);
Vault.Local.set(...);
// server side
Vault.File.set(...);
Vault.Memory.set(...);
{
// Cookie options.
domain: ".jimmybyrum.com",
secure: true,
// Cookie and Local options
path: "/",
expires: "2014-09-25 8:24:32 pm", // or anything that can be parsed by new Date(...)
expires: "+3 days", // works for all time increments from milliseconds to years.
// File and Memory options
expires
// domain and local/session storage
local/session is natively tied to the domain. Subdomain keys can only be set from that subdomain.
}
Vault.set("year", 1999); // saves in localStorage (browser) or to a file (server)
Vault.set("year", 1999, { expires: 'session' }); // saves in sessionStorage (browser) or in Memory (server)
Vault.set("year", 1999, { expires: '1999-12-31 11:59:59 pm' }); // saves in localStorage until 11:59:59 on December 31, 1999
Vault.Session.set('foo', 'bar');
Vault.Session.set('foo', 'bar', {
expires: '+6 months',
path: '/examples'
});
Vault.Local.set('my_array', [1,2,3,4]);
Vault.Cookie.set('my_object', {
foo: 'bar',
an_array: [1,2,3],
year: 2012
});
Vault.Local.set('age', 33);
Will check storage in this order: Memory, File (if node), Session, Local, Cookie
To specify which storage to get from, use:
Vault.Cookie.get(String key);
Vault.Local.get(String key);
Vault.Session.get(String key);
Vault.File.get(String key);
Vault.Memory.get(String key);
Vault.get('foo'); returns from Memory, else File (if node), else Session, else Local, else Cookie, else undefined
Vault.Session.get('foo');
// returns 'bar'
Vault.Local.get('my_array');
// [1,2,3,4]
Vault.Cookie.get('my_object');
// {
// foo: 'bar',
// an_array: [1,2,3],
// year: 2012
// }
Vault.Local.get('age');
// returns the number 33
removes an item
Vault.remove('my_object'); // removes from all storage types
Vault.Session.remove('my_object');
Vault.Local.remove('my_array');
Vault.Cookie.remove('my_array');
Vault.File.remove('my_array');
Vault.Memory.remove('my_array');
clears all items
Vault.clear(); // clears all storage types
Vault.Session.clear();
Vault.Local.clear();
Vault.Cookie.clear();
Vault.File.clear();
Vault.Memory.clear();
lists all items in Vault in the console
Vault.list(); // lists all storage types
Vault.Session.list();
Vault.Local.list();
Vault.Cookie.list();
Vault.File.list();
Vault.Memory.list();
To use Vault.js with webpack you'll need to use json-loader.
npm i --save json-loader
Then in webpack config:
module: {
loaders: [
{test: /\.json$/, loader: "json-loader" }
]
},
You may also want to set up an alias so your require statements are a bit cleaner:
resolve: {
alias: {
'vault.js': 'vault.js/browser.js'
}
}
