Local Playlist Storage
Sikksens opened this issue · comments
Hi there,
I know this project is EOL but the extension is still working so well for me and just wanted to find out if
it's possible store and save playlists locally, I only really use the extension on one computer so won't need any sharing functionality.
I know it's saving some data to local storage but I'm unsure as to how I could get playlists saving too.
Hahaha. What the hell are you doing still using my software? <3
Oh gosh. I think it is possible, but it's been a while. I know that originally Streamus only wrote to local and the DB was added later. Let me look at it for a bit.
Of course :P
There's literally nothing else out there with the same features, the search from chrome bar and radio are amazing!!
I thought maybe replacing all the old url's with the Backbone.LocalStorage adapter but not entirely sure exactly which ones though.
Yeah you're definitely on the right path with replacing the URLs with localStorage adapter.
If you take a look at streamItems.js
you'll see it's implemented using the localStorage adapter.
A starting point would be to mirror this setup with Playlists and PlaylistItems:
My only concern is that there might be server-side logic modifying things slightly as they're saved, but at a glance I don't see anything too crazy going on:

You might try starting there and, if unsuccessful, let me know what seems to be the issue? I don't have this running on my machine right now at all.
Try UpNext. It is a good chrome extension as well which serves same purpose. , They dont display the entire video but displays a still image from video
@sravan-bala Just to be clear, UpNext is also in violation of YouTube's TOS. It'll be taken down if/when it ever becomes popular enough to incur their wrath. Just trying to set expectations.
Oh is it? cruel world man!
