###Local and session storage - angular2 service (typescript)

This library provides an easy to use service to manage the web storages (local and session) from your ng2 application. It provides also two decorators to synchronize the component attributes and the web storages.

  • @SessionStorage

Getting Started

1. Download the library using npm npm install --save ng2-webstorage

2. Register the library in your ng2 application (bootstrap or any component your want)

   import {NG2_WEBSTORAGE} from 'ng2-webstorage';
   import {bootstrap} from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
   
   bootstrap(App, [ NG2_WEBSTORAGE ]);
   

   import {Component} from '@angular/core';
   import {NG2_WEBSTORAGE} from 'ng2-webstorage';
   
   @Component({
   	selector: 'foo',
   	template: `foobar`,
   	providers: [NG2_WEBSTORAGE]
   })
   export class FooComponent {}
   

3. Inject the services you want in your components and/or use the available decorators

   import {Component} from '@angular/core';
   import {LocalStorageService, SessionStorageService} from 'ng2-webstorage';
   
   @Component({
   	selector: 'foo',
   	template: `foobar`,
   	providers: [NG2_WEBSTORAGE]//can be [LocalStorageService]
   })
   export class FooComponent {
   
   	constructor(private localSt:LocalStorageService) {}
   
   	ngOnInit() {
   		this.localSt.observe('key')
   			.subscribe((value) => console.log('new value', value));
   	}
   
   }
   

   import {Component} from '@angular/core';
   import {LocalStorage, SessionStorage} from 'ng2-webstorage';
   
   @Component({
   	selector: 'foo',
   	template: `{{boundValue}}`,
   })
   export class FooComponent {
   
   	@LocalStorage()
   	public boundValue;
   
   }
   

Services

		<section><button (click)="saveValue()">Save</button></section>
	`,
})
export class FooComponent {

      this.storage.store('boundValue', this.attribute);
    }

}

	`,
})
export class FooComponent {

		<section><button (click)="clearItem()">Clear</button></section>
	`,
})
export class FooComponent {

    @LocalStorage('boundValue')
    boundAttribute;

    constructor(private storage:LocalStorageService) {}

})
export class FooComponent {

    @LocalStorage('boundValue')
    boundAttribute;

    constructor(private storage:LocalStorageService) {}

    ngOnInit() {
      this.storage.observe('boundValue')
        .subscribe((newValue) => {
          console.log(newValue);

Synchronize the decorated attribute with a given value in the localStorage

Params:

• storage key: (Optional) String. localStorage key, by default the decorator will take the attribute name.

	template: `{{boundAttribute}}`,
})
export class FooComponent {

	@LocalStorage()
