IndexedDB
 
I am trying to use IndexedDB in a Tizen webapp.  The spec says that Tizen apps should be able to use IndexedDB and there is even the following example code on the Tizen developers site:
 
<script>
   if (!window.indexedDB) {
      window.alert("Does not support IndexedDB");
   } else{
      var tizenDB = {}
      var request = window.indexedDB.open("TizenIndexedDB");

      console.log(request); //The created indexedDB can be checked.

      request.onsuccess = function(e) {
         //
      }
      request.onerror = function(e) {
         console.log(e);
      }
   } 
</script>

However, when I try to run this code in a Tizen app, I get an alert saying that IndexedDB is not supported.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Michael Hilton

Hi Michael, Even after adding the privilege http://tizen.org/privilege/unlimitedstorage, got the same message "Does not support IndexedDB". I raised a Jira request on this issue. Please follow the link for updates. https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TWEB-142 Regards, Raghu Kona

Hi Michael, Try to use following code:

This worked for me. They use a webkitIndexedDB, so you can leave the rest out (in this case). So replace: window.indexedDB = window.indexedDB || window.mozIndexedDB || window.webkitIndexedDB || window.msIndexedDB; with: window.indexedDB = window.webkitIndexedDB; Should still work.

Hi, Try the below code : 
var db = openDatabase('mydb', '1.0', 'Test DB', 2 * 1024 * 1024);
openDatabase() opens a database with the name "mydb"

I tried this one for opening my database, but it is existing database. Not working i'm using 2.2.0.

You can insert below code to use indexeddb but it looks like very unstable now. 
.
    if ( 'webkitIndexedDB' in window ) { 
        window.IDBCursor = window.webkitIDBCursor;
        window.IDBDatabase = window.webkitIDBDatabase;
        window.IDBDatabaseError = window.webkitIDBDatabaseError;
        window.IDBDatabaseException = window.webkitIDBDatabaseException;
        window.IDBErrorEvent = window.webkitIDBErrorEvent;
        window.IDBEvent = window.webkitIDBEvent;
        window.IDBFactory = window.webkitIDBFactory;
        window.IDBIndex = window.webkitIDBIndex;
        window.IDBKeyRange = window.webkitIDBKeyRange;
        window.IDBObjectStore = window.webkitIDBObjectStore;
        window.IDBRequest = window.webkitIDBRequest;
        window.IDBSuccessEvent = window.webkitIDBSuccessEvent;
        window.IDBTransaction = window.webkitIDBTransaction;
        window.indexedDB = window.webkitIndexedDB;
    }

Hi I'm developing Tizen webapp. My app has an web worker and creates an indexed db within the worker. I tried my code with desktop chrome. it worked well. But Tizen always failed to open indexed db with worker. Am I missing something or current Tizen build(sdk 2.1) does not support indexeddb with web worker?

It seems like an issue https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TWEB-142
