Local storage change in location

[ariang]

Hi there

Where is Localstorage currently located. I no longer see it in ‘ionic-angular’.

Kind regards

See release notes RC.0:

Storage has been removed from ionic-angular and placed into a separate module, @ionic/storage. Starters have been updated to add this, make sure to add it to your package.json if you’re using the storage system. See more details here.

Aaah, cool thanks, Did Localstorage fall away completely? Do I just use Storage now for the purpose of temporary storage?

before my approach was like this

import { Storage, LocalStorage } from 'ionic-angular';

local: Storage;

 constructor(private http: Http, private _profile: IProfile) {
 this.local = new Storage(LocalStorage);
}

Kind regards

Don’t know that sorry (I use localforage)

Cool, no problem, thanks

Yes, you should. It handles your localstorage as well.

@luukschoen is right:

if you want to use locaforage:

Where is Storage and LocalStorage in rc0?

@rapropos you sir deserve a very cold and large beer! Thanks it worked! for @theromis heres what i did: install it: npm install @types/localforage npm install localforage import it: import * as localforage from "localforage"; and then change set, get remove, clear to their new values, example: localforage.setItem('key', 'value' ); github: https://github.com/localForage/localForage api doc: https://localforage.github.io/localForage/

and using storage:

Where is Storage and LocalStorage in rc0?

I’m digging into this too. Actually there is no need to install localforage. Like @rapropos said, LocalStorage uses LocalForage. I imported Storage from @ionic/storage and used the same way you are using localforage, but the syntax is a bit different. Instead of: localforage.setItem('key', 'value' ); use: storage.set('key', 'value'); The same for getItem and get.
