Persistent Cache and Data

[TheDemitrius]

Hi all, Hi Piotr,

I’ve seen a fair few folk posting about wanting to clear the cache – however I am working on a project that requires data from my target website to remain, even after Unity has been closed and reopened.

I have no issues with data being present during a session – I can write and read just fine, but when I close and open the project, data is no longer present.

Is there a simple way to retain information between sessions?

Thanks

Hey,

Have you tried LocalStorage?

Hi Piotr,

At a risk of sounding horribly inexperienced, I can’t find any reference to LocalStorage that I can use – Is it an option that I can enable?

Thanks

Hi Piotr,

I’ve been browsing the forum searching for solutions, I stumbled upon a post (https://www.kokosoft.pl/forums/topic/localstorage-support/) where you discuss local storage support. Would it be possible to add this for android on here? I can’t edit the compiled .jar, but is there a patched version available I could use?

Thanks

I’m sorry but I don’t understand your request. What exactly you want to add to Android?

Hi Piotr,

I want to add local storage support that will last after the app is closed.

I think that on iOS this is done by adding:

void _OpenInAppBrowser(char *URL, struct DisplayOptions displayOptions) {
        [[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setBool:YES forKey:@"WebKitStoreWebDataForBackup"];
        NSString *urlAsString = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:URL];
        _ShowURLWithDisplayOptions(urlAsString, displayOptions);
    }

But I don’t know how to add this to Android

[Piotr]

Local storage should work out of the box on Android. Have you tried it?

Also this code is out dated with new plugin’s 2.0 version.

Hi Piotr, I’m sorry that I’ve not been clear! Let me try again:

I’m using a Java-based interpreter that uses Local Storage in order to save user data, but data doesn’t seem to be persistent (it will store during sessions, but if I close and reopen the app, the data is gone.)

What I need is for the data to stay in place, even if the app is closed and reopened. If I’m understanding correctly, it should work as-is?

Thanks

By “local storage” do you mean this API?
