Javascript Question
Chrome not setting local storage
I am creating a Chrome packaged app. I want to display a EULA the first time the user opens the app. I want to us Chrome's local storage to test whether or not the app has been opened.
Here is my javascript:
function disagree(){
chrome.storage.local.set({eula:'false'}, function(result) {
console.log(result.eula)});
// console.log returns undefined
// Returns: TypeError: Cannot read property 'eula' of undefined
document.getElementById("eulaDisagree").style.display = "block";
}
function agree(){
chrome.storage.local.set({eula:'true'}, function(result) {
console.log("Set eula: " + result.eula);
// console.log returns undefined
// Returns: TypeError: Cannot read property 'eula' of undefined
chrome.storage.local.get("eula"), function(result){
console.log("Get Result: " + result.eula)};
// Returns this error: extensions::uncaught_exception_handler:8 Error in response to
// storage.set: Error: Invocation of form get(string) doesn't match definition
// get(optional string or array or object keys, function callback)
});
document.getElementById("background").style.height = "0%";
document.getElementById("foreground").style.height = "0%";
document.getElementById("foreground").style.border = "none";
}
// Creates event listeners
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(){
document.getElementById("disagree").addEventListener("click", function(){
disagree();
});
document.getElementById("agree").addEventListener("click", function(){
agree();
});
});
The problem is Chrome is not storing the data to local storage.

I appears that I had the syntax for the get wrong. I changed my javascript to the following:
function disagree(){
chrome.storage.local.set({'eula':'false'}, function() {
console.log("False")});
document.getElementById("eulaDisagree").style.display = "block";
}
function agree(){
chrome.storage.local.set({'eula':'true'}, function() {
var eulaV;
console.log("True");
chrome.storage.local.get('eula', function(result){
eulaV = result.eula;
console.log(eulaV);
});
});
document.getElementById("background").style.height = "0%";
document.getElementById("foreground").style.height = "0%";
document.getElementById("foreground").style.border = "none";
}
I am no longer getting any errors. Everything works fine.
