Documentation

Wraps the web_sys Indexed DB API in a Future-based API and removes the pain of dealing with JS callbacks or JSValue in Rust.

Goals & features:

  • Shield you from having to interact with web_sys or js_sys APIs - this should feel like a native Rust API.
  • Integrate with serde, but don't require it - as a rule of thumb, you'll use serde-serialisable types when working with JS objects & bypass serde for Javascript primitives.
  • Implement Stream where applicable - cursors and key cursors have this at the time of writing.
  • Implement a more Rust-oriented API - for example, transactions will roll back by default unless explicitly committed to allow you to use ?s.
