IDBObjectStore.autoIncrement
The autoIncrement
read-only property of the IDBObjectStore
interface returns the value of the auto increment flag for this object store.
Note that every object store has its own separate auto increment counter.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers
Syntax
var myAutoIncrement = objectStore.autoIncrement;
Value
A boolean value:
Value | Meaning |
---|---|
true | The object store auto increments. |
false | The object store does not auto increment. |
Example
In the following code snippet, we open a read/write transaction on our database and add some data to an object store using add()
. After the object store has been created, we log objectStore.autoIncrement
to the console. For a full working example, see our To-do Notifications app (view example live.)
// Let us open our database var DBOpenRequest = window.indexedDB.open("toDoList", 4); DBOpenRequest.onsuccess = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Database initialised.</li>'; // store the result of opening the database in the db variable. // This is used a lot below db = DBOpenRequest.result; // Run the addData() function to add the data to the database addData(); }; function addData() { // Create a new object ready to insert into the IDB var newItem = [ { taskTitle: "Walk dog", hours: 19, minutes: 30, day: 24, month: "December", year: 2013, notified: "no" } ]; // open a read/write db transaction, ready for adding the data var transaction = db.transaction(["toDoList"], "readwrite"); // report on the success of the transaction completing, when everything is done transaction.oncomplete = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Transaction completed.</li>'; }; transaction.onerror = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Transaction not opened due to error. Duplicate items not allowed.</li>'; }; // create an object store on the transaction var objectStore = transaction.objectStore("toDoList"); console.log(objectStore.autoIncrement); // Make a request to add our newItem object to the object store var objectStoreRequest = objectStore.add(newItem[0]); objectStoreRequest.onsuccess = function(event) { // report the success of our request note.innerHTML += '<li>Request successful.</li>'; }; };
