Increasing the local storage

[mojo]

All,

I have a framework wherein i am launching a different applications in different IFrames. All the applications are consuming lots of local storage data because of which Quota exceeded error is thrown for the "later opened application".I can not use the crx for the apps so ,i guess, what i have to do is to increase the quota size at the browser level only. i have to use the application locally only so changing the browser would do the trick.

detail:

chromium : 22

Ubuntu : 12.10

Any idea/suggestion?

Thank you.

Edit chrome/common/extensions/api/storage.json, change the "local" QUOTA_BYTES value, and rebuild chrome.

But the purpose of that file seems to be for the chrome.storage extension API, I think the original poster means the localStorage API and specifically mentions not using CRX.

Yes,you are right PhistucK. My intent was to provide the extra memory to application without taking the recourse to chrome extension?

So are you suggesting that i can't increase the localstorage if my application is run outside the realm of crx?

You can do whatever you want when you compile Chromium by yourself. ;)

However, if you do not want to compile it by yourself, I think you can use other storage options, like FileSystem or IndexedDB that do have storage increasing mechanism, if I am not mistaking, using webkitStorageInfo (JavaScript, that is).

From StackOverflow -

window.webkitStorageInfo.requestQuota( 

            window.PERSISTENT,

            500000,

            function( bytes ) {

                alert( "Quota is available: " + bytes );

            },

            function( e ) {

                alert( "Error allocating quota: " + e );

            });
