so amplify has something like this

and for fucks sake someone else must have done this exact thing only better already.

i mean srsly.

This plugin is pretty nice! But it had some issues, so I forked it and added some features I needed.

My Fork

• unit tests
• travis CI
• md5 hash of cacheKeys (save space)
• reduce space used for storing TTL
• support legacy mode for cacheKey option
• grunt automation

I dont know if you're interested but would you like me to submit a pull request? Its pretty drastic, but I couldnt find a plugin like it.

[paulirish]

yes.

yours will without a doubt be better. :)

@treasonx i'm almost wondering...

should I just kill off my fork? I can delete and fork yours. i'd be happier to point people to your project than here.

[treasonx]

@paulirish your fork has history in the issues and pull requests which I wouldn't want to lose. If you want to kill off your fork maybe transfer the repo and I will maintain it? I'm not sure what happens when you transfer ownership of a repo, but I am assuming that project history goes with it.

[paulirish]

Yup the project history goes along with the transfer. I like it.

Wanna try?

We might have to proxy this transfer through an organization like h5bp in order to have the necessary permissions

[treasonx]

Yea lets give it a shot. I am curious what'll do since i already have a fork of your fork :)

I have all my changes in my local repo so I am not worried about losing changes.

Thanks

@treasonx I couldn't see how to comment on your fork, but there is no built in md5 function in JS…

[treasonx]

@richbradshaw I know

I've googled "jquery ajax localStorage" and this was first plugin I have found. So even if there are other plugins they SEO suxx.

Currently I've met missing feature I need, it is inability to work with asynchronous storages like chrome.storage.local.
