localForage-removeItems

npm
Adds removeItems method to localForage.

Requirements

Installation

npm i localforage-removeitems

Importing

TypeScript

Include localforage with an import statement appropriate for your configuration and import localforage-removeitems right after it.

Normally, localforage-removeitems will extend the prototype of locaforage to include the removeItems() method, but unfortunately the typings can't be updated. As a result you should use the exported extendPrototype() method, which returns the provided localforage instance but with inherited typings that also include the removeItems() method.

import localForage from 'localforage';
// OR based on your configuration:
// import * as localForage from 'localforage';

import { extendPrototype } from 'localforage-removeitems';

extendPrototype(localforage);

// Keep using localForage as usual.

Known issues with module bundlers

In some ES6 module bundlers .removeItems() might not automatically be made available to the localforage object on import. In this case, import the provided extendPrototype() method and extend localforage manually, as shown in the Typescript section.

API

Just like removeItem() but you can pass an array with the keys that need to be removed.

localforage.removeItems(['asdf','asap','async']);
