GitHub Pages localStorage

This repository hosts a ES module library which patches the localStorage window object in the browser and prefixes all keys used with setItem, getItem and removeItem with the value of location.pathname.

This makes it possible to use localStorage in apps hosted on GitHub Pages and coming from the same account without worrying about these apps all sharing the same origin and thus the same storage.

See more on https://tomashubelbauer.github.io/github-pages-local-storage.

Usage

import 'https://tomashubelbauer.github.io/github-pages-local-storage/index.js';

// Use `localStorage` as you normally would now

Note that the index.js cannot be referenced directly based on the GitHub URLs you see in the browser for normal or even raw mode, because those pages are not served with the text/javascript MIME type required for ESM.

To-Do

Patch key, length, clear etc.

I have not patched these because I don't need them now, but I might do it later.
