@andrewheadricke's work to persist messages to localStorage in #342 piqued my interest so I took a stab at fleshing it out. This feature is requested in issue #162.
I've created a
MessageStore
class which handles the CRUD operations on messages in localStorage. Each message is stored in a separate localStorage item to facilitate paginated loading on scroll.What's in the box:
I have never used zustand and immer so I wasn't sure how to best link this in with the deviceState. I had an issue where the ChannelChat component was not updating with new messages and state changes. To get it functional I resorted to a semaphore on the deviceState which is clearly not the best but it works. Any suggestions on how to improve this would be most welcome!
