Store your ember application data in localStorage.

Compatible with Ember Data 1.0.beta.16

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.

Include localstorage_adapter.js in your app and then like all adapters:

App.ApplicationSerializer = DS.LSSerializer.extend();
App.ApplicationAdapter = DS.LSAdapter.extend({
    namespace: 'yournamespace'
});

If you are using Ember Localstorage Adapter within an Ember CLI project you can install it as an addon with the following command:

ember install:bower ember-localstorage-adapter

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:

DS.LSAdapter.create({
  namespace: 'my app'
});

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

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.

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

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.

App.store.adapter.on('QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR', function(records){
  // do stuff
});

App.store.commit();

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
});

• Make the repo nicer to work with long-term (do something more intelligent with dependencies found in vendor, etc.)

If you don't have bower, install it with

npm install bower -g

Then install the dependencies with

bower install

Open test/index.html in a browser. If you have phantomjs installed, run

phantomjs test/runner.js test/index.html
