The objectStore
property of the IDBIndex
interface returns the object store referenced by the current index.
An IDBObjectStore
.
In the following example we open a transaction and an object store, then get the index lName
from a simple contacts database. We then open a basic cursor on the index using IDBIndex.openCursor
. This works the same as opening a cursor directly on an ObjectStore
using IDBObjectStore.openCursor
except that the returned records are sorted based on the index, not the primary key.
The current object store is logged to the console: it should be returned something like this:
IDBObjectStore { name: "contactsList", keyPath: "id", indexNames: DOMStringList[7], transaction: IDBTransaction, autoIncrement: false }
Finally, we iterate through each record, and insert the data into an HTML table. For a complete working example, see our IndexedDB-examples demo repo (View the example live).
function displayDataByIndex() {
tableEntry.textContent = "";
const transaction = db.transaction(["contactsList"], "readonly");
const objectStore = transaction.objectStore("contactsList");
const myIndex = objectStore.index("lName");
console.log(myIndex.objectStore);
myIndex.openCursor().onsuccess = (event) => {
const cursor = event.target.result;
if (cursor) {
const tableRow = document.createElement("tr");
for (const cell of [
cursor.value.id,
cursor.value.lName,
cursor.value.fName,
cursor.value.jTitle,
cursor.value.company,
cursor.value.eMail,
cursor.value.phone,
cursor.value.age,
]) {
const tableCell = document.createElement("td");
tableCell.textContent = cell;
tableRow.appendChild(tableCell);
}
tableEntry.appendChild(tableRow);
cursor.continue();
} else {
console.log("Entries all displayed.");
}
};
}
