Is there a way to set the key for chrome.storage.local.set via a string that is in a variable.
For instance, I want to send a file name and a key name into a single function to store the results into chrome.local.storage.set. It would look something like this.
Call:
setURLS('fileLocation', 'listofurls');
setURLS('secondFileLocation', 'listofsomethingelse');
Method:
function setURLs(fileName, keyName) {
let textFile = new XMLHttpRequest();
textFile.open('GET', fileName , true);
textFile.onreadystatechange = function(){
if(textFile.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.DONE && textFile.status === 200){
let dictionaryArray = textFile.responseText.split(',');
chrome.storage.local.set({keyName: dictionaryArray}, function (){});
}
}
textFile.send(null);
}
It doesn't like to use the string from the variable in the function header. I have to manually set the name of the key which duplicates code for all files that I would like to pull data from.
I hope that I explained it well enough to understand.
