Remove the local stored data form a table

bfarkas

Hi,
I am doing a setup like found here:
https://editor.datatables.net/examples/advanced/localstorage.html

The one problem/question I am trying to figure out how to solve is the data pretty much lives in local storage permanently for the short term. Clearing cache doesn't wipe it, or anything. I was thinking of some sort of button to delete current local storage but not sure how to go about it.
Thoughts?

You can use the state.clear() API to clear the storage.

Went with a more direct function for the clear as the other was not clearing all the time:

{
extend: "create",
editor: p200editor,
text: 'Purge',
action: function () {
window.localStorage.clear();
window.location.reload();
}
}
