electron-storage

simple storage managing module for electron

Electron saves data in app.getPath("userData") folder, which is different in every os. electron-storage gives simple methods to get and set json files to this directory.

• Creates subdirectories if needed - that means you can write movies/StarWars.json as path, a movies folder will be created and a StarWars.json file inside.
• Supports callbacks and promises.
• The data inserted can be a javascript object, or stringified json.
• You don't have to write .json in the end of a file path, it will add it for you.
