Saving a model in local storage

问题:

I'm using Jerome's localStorage adapter with Backbone and it works great for collections.

But, now I have a single model that I need to save. So in my model I set:

localStorage: new Store("msg")

I then do my saves and fetch. My problem is that everytime I do a refresh and initialize my app a new representation of my model is added to localStorage, see below.

What am I doing wrong?

window.localStorage.msg = {
  // Created after first run
  "1de5770c-1431-3b15-539b-695cedf3a415":{
    "title":"First run",
    "id":"1de5770c-1431-3b15-539b-695cedf3a415"
  },
  // Created after second run
  "26c1fdb7-5803-a61f-ca12-2701dba9a09e":{
    "0":{
      "title":"First run",
      "id":"1de5770c-1431-3b15-539b-695cedf3a415"
    },
      "title":"Second run",
      "id":"26c1fdb7-5803-a61f-ca12-2701dba9a09e"
    }
  }

I ran into same issue. Maybe you have something similar to this

var Settings = Backbone.Model.extend({
  localStorage: new Store("Settings"),
  defaults: { a: 1 }
});

var s = new Settings;
s.fetch();

I changed to

var s = new Settings({ id: 1 });

localStorage adapter check for id like

 case "read":    resp = model.id ? store.find(model) : store.findAll(); break;

so 0 or "" for id wont work and it will return all models in one

I'm new to backbone.js too, but it looks like the persistence model is analogous to database tables. That is to say, it's designed to create/delete/read records from a table. The localStorage adapter does the same, so what you are doing there is creating a Msg "table" in localStorage, and creating a new Msg "record" each time, and the adapter gives each new Msg a unique id.

If you just have one object, it's probably easier to just use localStorage directly. The API is really straight forward:

localStorage.setItem("key","value");

Keep in mind that localStorage only deals with key/value pairs as strings, so you'd need to convert to/from string format.

Take a look a this question for more on doing that:
