Hi,
I have tried with this package with one of my Ionic-meteor application to get data persistence on device.
It gets data from server using Meteor DDP when device has network connection.

users = new Mongo.Collection('user');

this stores data into IndexedDB.
myPersistDiscussions = new PersistentMinimongo2(users, 'MyApp');

I have added one observer to keep data synced.
var myPersistDiscussionsObserver = new PersistentMinimongo2(users, 'MyApp');
Now I am able to get data from meteor collection named "users".

 $scope.listData = $meteor.collection(function() {
      return users.find();
 });

Issue :
It gets data from server using Meteor DDP when device has network connection.
It gets data from device's meteor collection (Cached data) when device has no network connection but application is in memory.
It is not getting data from persistent database when you removed the application from memory and internet connection is not available on device.

Please let me know if anybody has tried this thing or done successfully before.

In my app, I wait for the subscriptions to finish before rendering. This takes a while on 3G, so I'd like to save the contents of the collections in localstorage, and on the next page load, restore from localstorage to Meteor.Collections and immediately render, and then call the subscriptions.

It would be nice to use this package without jQuery, the package is not that Dom traversal dependant so this should be super easy to fix.

I would like to revive your package, as it seems fine to me. Either i will publish it under a new name, or you can add me as a collaborator, though i would like to change the name, to make it more findable (so i better publish a new one) :)

Just as a info

Hello, When i test your example like this :

// create a local collection,
    var shoppingCart = new Meteor.Collection('shopping-cart', {connection: null});

    // create a local persistence observer
    var shoppingCartObserver = new LocalPersist(shoppingCart, 'myShoppingApp');

    shoppingCart.insert({ item: 'DMB-01'+Math.floor(Math.random() * 10), quantity: Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) });

    console.log(shoppingCart.find({}).fetch())

when i refresh the page and fetch the collection, only the newly inserted data is returned by the fetch so there are no persistents data.
