Package Exports
- @sammacbeth/random-access-idb-mutable-file
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 (@sammacbeth/random-access-idb-mutable-file) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
random-access-idb-mutable-file
random-access storage layer over IDBMutableFile, which is non-standard IndexedDB extension in Gecko to provide virtual file system API with-in the IndexedDB.
This library will only work in Firefox (unless other browsers implement IDBMutableFile API) and it's mostly targeted at WebExtensions. It mostly amis to be a drop-in replacement for random-access-file. It is also an alternative to random-access-idb that is able to avoid loading all of the file content for random read / writes at the expanse of limited runtime suport.
Usage
import RandomAccess from "random-access-idb-mutable-file"
const main = async (filename, options) => {
const randomAccessFile = await RandomAccess.mount()
const file = randomAccessFile(filename, options)
file.write(10, Buffer.from("hello"), error => {
// write a buffer to offset 10
file.read(10, 5, (error, buffer) => {
console.log(buffer) // read 5 bytes from offset 10
file.close(() => {
console.log("file is closed")
})
})
})
