# useIDBKeyval

Wrapper for [`idb-keyval`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/idb-keyval).

## Install idb-keyval as a peer dependency

```bash
npm install idb-keyval@^6
```

## Usage

```ts
import { useIDBKeyval } from '@vueuse/integrations/useIDBKeyval';

// bind object
const { data: storedObject, isFinished } = useIDBKeyval('my-idb-keyval-store', {
  hello: 'hi',
  greeting: 'Hello',
});

// update object
storedObject.value.hello = 'hola';

// bind boolean
const flag = useIDBKeyval('my-flag', true); // returns Ref<boolean>

// bind number
const count = useIDBKeyval('my-count', 0); // returns Ref<number>

// awaiting IDB transaction
await count.set(10);
console.log('IDB transaction finished!');

// delete data from idb storage
storedObject.value = null;
```

## Type Declarations

```ts
interface Serializer<T> {
  read: (raw: unknown) => T;
  write: (value: T) => unknown;
}
export interface UseIDBOptions<T> extends ConfigurableFlush {
  /**
   * Watch for deep changes
   *
   * @default true
   */
  deep?: boolean;
  /**
   * On error callback
   *
   * Default log error to `console.error`
   */
  onError?: (error: unknown) => void;
  /**
   * Use shallow ref as reference
   *
   * @default false
   */
  shallow?: boolean;
  /**
   * Write the default value to the storage when it does not exist
   *
   * @default true
   */
  writeDefaults?: boolean;
  /**
   * Custom data serialization
   */
  serializer?: Serializer<T>;
}
export interface UseIDBKeyvalReturn<T> {
  data: RemovableRef<T>;
  isFinished: ShallowRef<boolean>;
  set: (value: T) => Promise<void>;
}
/**
 *
 * @param key
 * @param initialValue
 * @param options
 */
export declare function useIDBKeyval<T>(
  key: IDBValidKey,
  initialValue: MaybeRefOrGetter<T>,
  options?: UseIDBOptions<T>,
): UseIDBKeyvalReturn<T>;
```
