how to save toggle button prefrence in localstorage

Time:01-10

i have a togle button which uses useTimeoutPoll plugin to fetch some data in 10 seconds intervals, i want to save the state of this togle button to local storage but i cant figure out how to do it, please if anyone can help. this is the code below

const fetchData = async () => {
  await data.loadUpdate(id)
}
const { isActive, pause, resume } = useTimeoutPoll(fetchData, 10000)

const toggleUpdate = computed(() => {
  if (isActive) {
    return resume
  } else return pause
})

and i use the togle like this

    <Toggle
      v-model="isActive"
      @click="toggleUpdate"
    >
      <span>
        update
      </span>
    </Toggle>

You can use the localStorage API to save the state of the toggle button to the local storage. The localStorage API allows you to store data in key-value pairs in the browser's local storage.

To save the state of the toggle button, you can add a watch hook to your component to watch for changes in the isActive property. Inside the watch hook, you can use the localStorage.setItem() method to save the value of isActive to the local storage.

Here's an example of how you can implement this:

  export default {
data() {
  return {
   isActive: false,
  }
 },
methods: {
  toggleUpdate() {
  this.isActive = !this.isActive
 },
},
watch: {
 isActive(newValue) {
   localStorage.setItem('isActive', newValue)
 },
},
// ... other code
}

This will save the state of the toggle button to the local storage whenever the value of isActive changes.

You can also retrieve the value of isActive from the local storage when the component is created by using the localStorage.getItem() method. Here's an example of how you can do this:

    export default {
   data() {
  return {
   isActive: localStorage.getItem('isActive') || false,
 }
},
 // ... other code
}

This will retrieve the value of isActive from the local storage and set it as the initial value of isActive when the component is created. If the value is not found in the local storage, it will default to false.

I hope it helps

  1. localStorage save item window.localStorage.setItem(key, value)
  2. localStorage take item window.localStorage.getItem(key)
  3. localStorage remove item window.localStorage.removeItem(key)

Here is an example of how you can do it:

const toggleUpdate = computed(() => {
  window.localStorage.setItem('isActive', isActive)
  if (isActive) {
    return resume
  } else return pause
})

I hope it helps.
