IDBKeyRange.includes()

The includes() method of the IDBKeyRange interface returns a boolean indicating whether a specified key is inside the key range.

Syntax

var isIncluded = myKeyRange.includes(key)

Parameters

key The key you want to check for in your key range. This can be any type.

Return value

A boolean value.

Exceptions

This method may raise a DOMException of the following type:

Example

var keyRangeValue = IDBKeyRange.bound('A', 'K', false, false);

var myResult = keyRangeValue.includes('F');
// Returns true

var myResult = keyRangeValue.includes('W');
// Returns false

Polyfill

The includes() method was added in the second edition of the Indexed DB specification. For browsers that do not support it, the following polyfill can be used.

IDBKeyRange.prototype.includes = IDBKeyRange.prototype.includes || function(key) {
  var r = this, c;
  if (r.lower !== undefined) {
    c = indexedDB.cmp(key, r.lower);
    if (r.lowerOpen && c <= 0) return false;
    if (!r.lowerOpen && c < 0) return false;
  }
  if (r.upper !== undefined) {
    c = indexedDB.cmp(key, r.upper);
    if (r.upperOpen && c >= 0) return false;
    if (!r.upperOpen && c > 0) return false;
  }
  return true;
};
