.forceset

localDataStorage.forceset( keyName, value )

This method stores value under keyName, creating a new key if necessary, where the key prefix is prepended to keyName, but the data type is ignored (value is always stored as String). Data obfuscation is not possible.

This is equivalent to the native localStorage.setItem method, however key prefixing is nevertheless enforced.

This will overwrite an existing value for keyName. If this happens, the prior value cannot be retrieved.

The value of the updated key is returned when this method executes.

EXAMPLES:

● localData.forceset( 'lsAPI-key1', 'string data' )
● localData.forceset( 'lsAPI-key2', 99.44 )
● localData.forceset( 'lsAPI-key3', [1,3,5,7,9] )

🌐 This method may fire an event allowing you to monitor the changed key.

✨ The complement to this is forceget.

📝 NOTE: Key values stored by this method can also be retrieved using get.
