How to store data locally?

[Matt]

Hi,

Can someone please tell me if they have used local storage successfully across mobile devices (IOS, Android mainly) using phonegap as the eventual release mechanism?

And possibly any articles or pointers for me before I dive into it.

Many Thanks
Matt

Hello Matthew,

Depends on how much data you want to store. localStorage and sessionStorage are meant to be used with key/value pairs only. If you want to handle more data, you can use Web SQL Database (deprecated but widely supported) and IndexedDB (the way forward). Also check this presentation and some articles.

PhoneGap has PhoneGapSQLiteplugin for iOS and Android.

Hopefully Kendo UI mobile team  can come up with demo how to use this PhoneGapSQLiteplugin for iOS and Android with Kendo UI mobile.

I like to see Kendo UI mobile team would have similar demo / example how to tackle localstorage and native SQLite3 databases in Kendo UI mobile.
