[FireMonkey] New storage API options: getValue, setValue, deleteValue #545
Description
New APIs in FireMonkey 2.68 ...
New GM APIs: getValues, setValues, deleteValues
Userscripts often need to get/set multiple values. Each storage operation result in costly asynchronous read/write which means resources, time, and hard disk wear (especially for SSDs). These new APIs aim to alleviate the aforementioned.
Single-operation
await GM.setValue('key', 'value');
await GM.setValue('key2', 'value2');
await GM.setValue('key3', 'value3');
await GM.setValue('key4', 'value4');
await GM.setValue('key5', 'value5');New Multi-operation (2.68 only)
const values = await GM.getValues([key, key2, ...]); // return {key: value, key2: value2, ...}
await GM.setValues({key: value, key2: value2, ...});
await GM.deleteValues([key, key2, ...]);New Multi-operation (changed in 2.69 as new options for existing APIs)
const values = await GM.getValue([key, key2, ...]); // return {key: value, key2: value2, ...}
await GM.setValue({key: value, key2: value2, ...});
await GM.deleteValue([key, key2, ...]);
