has-localstorage
Advanced tools
returns true if localStorage is supported and persistent
returns true or false depending on whether localStorage is supported or not.
Beware that some browsers like Safari do not support localStorage in private mode.
bower install --save has-localstoragenpm install --save has-localstorageif (hasLocalStorage()) {
// localStorage can be used, all data gets persisted
} else {
// localStorage is not available, or changes are not persisted
}
The current test setup is very simple: it only tests in latest Firefox
using Selenium and Sauce Labs. Unfortunately,
Sauce Labs has no support to start browsers in private mode, which would
be necessary, as localStorage behaves different if in private mode
in Safari, probably in other browsers as well.
If anynone has an idea to for that, ping me at https://github.com/gr2m/has-localstorage/issues/1
