Set localStorage
This action allows you to specify a key and its corresponding value to be stored in local storage of the browser. Local storage can be useful in a lot of scenarios. Some of the most common use cases of the local storage includes:
- Saving form values so that users don't accidentally lose them if they reload the page
- Storing any kind of data that is not going to be transferred to the database
Example: Setting a Component Value Based on Local Storage
-
Add Text Input, Button and Text components to the canvas.
-
Select the Button, add a new event handler, and add a
Set local storageaction withkeyset tolocaltestandvalueset to{{components.textinput1.value}}.
This will set a local storage value with
localtestas the key and the value entered in the Text Input component as its value. -
Create a
Run JavaScript codequery, and enter the code below:return localStorage.getItem("localtest");
Click on the Run button in the Query Panel. This query will fetch the
localtestlocal storage variable that we had set earlier. -
Select the Text component. Under its
Textproperty, enter{{queries.runjs1.data}}. Now, the Text component will display the value returned by theRun JavaScript codequery - the local variable we had set earlier.
-
Select the Button component. Add a new event handler to it, add a
Run queryaction, selectrunjs1as the query, and set a debounce of300.
Now, every time you click on the Button component, it will set the local storage value, and the Text component will display the value set in local storage.
:::info Debounce field is empty by default, you can enter a numerical value to specify the time in milliseconds after which the action will be performed. ex:
300:::
