Package Exports
- @rehooks/local-storage
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@rehooks/local-storage) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Usage
Write to Storage
This can be anywhere from within your application.
Note: Objects that are passed to writeStorage are automatically stringified. This will not work for circular structures.
import React from 'react';
import { writeStorage } from '@rehooks/local-storage';
let counter = 0;
const MyButton = () => (
<button onClick={_ => writeStorage('i', ++counter)}>
Click Me
</button>
);
Read From Storage
This component will receive updates to itself from local storage.
Javascript:
import React from 'react';
import { useLocalStorage } from '@rehooks/local-storage';
function MyComponent() {
const [counterValue] = useLocalStorage('i'); // send the key to be tracked.
return (
<div>
<h1>{counterValue}</h1>
</div>
);
}
Typescript:
import React from 'react';
import { useLocalStorage } from '@rehooks/local-storage';
function MyComponent() {
const [counterValue] = useLocalStorage<number>('i'); // specify a type argument for your type
return (
<div>
<h1>{counterValue}</h1>
</div>
);
}
Optionally use a default value
Note: Objects that are passed to useLocalStorage's default parameter will be automatically stringified. This will not work for circular structures.
import React from 'react';
import { useLocalStorage } from '@rehooks/local-storage';
function MyComponent() {
// Note: The type of user can be inferred from the default value type
const [user] = useLocalStorage('user', { name: 'Anakin Skywalker' });
return (
<div>
<h1>{user.name}</h1>
</div>
);
}
Delete From Storage
You may also delete items from the local storage as well.
import { writeStorage, deleteFromStorage } from '@rehooks/local-storage';
writeStorage('name', 'Homer Simpson'); // Add an item first
deleteFromStorage('name'); // Deletes the item
const thisIsNull = localStorage.getItem('name'); // This is indeed null
Full Example
You may view this example here on StackBlitz.
Note: The writeStorage and deleteFromStorage functions are provided from useLocalStorage as well, and do not require you to specify the key when using them.
import React, { Fragment } from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';
import { writeStorage, deleteFromStorage, useLocalStorage } from '@rehooks/local-storage';
const startingNum = 0;
const Clicker = () => (
<Fragment>
<h4>Clicker</h4>
<button onClick={_ => {
writeStorage('num', localStorage.getItem('num')
? +(localStorage.getItem('num')) + 1
: startingNum
)
}}>
Increment From Outside
</button>
<button onClick={_ => deleteFromStorage('num')}>
Delete From Outside
</button>
</Fragment>
);
const IncrememterWithButtons = () => {
const [number, setNum, deleteNum] = useLocalStorage('num');
return (
<Fragment>
<p>{typeof(number) === 'number' ? number : 'Try incrementing the number!'}</p>
<button onClick={_ => setNum(getNum !== null ? +(number) + 1 : startingNum)}>Increment</button>
<button onClick={deleteNum}>Delete</button>
</Fragment>
);
};
const App = () => (
<Fragment>
<h1> Demo </h1>
<IncrememterWithButtons />
<Clicker />
</Fragment>
);
// Assuming there is a div in index.html with an ID of 'root'
render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'));
