Re-creating IndexedDB database after clearing browser cache.

[Urjasvi Suthar]

Hello,

I am fetching and storing file in IndexedDB as persistent storage. But when I check if file exists in IndexedDB (through fetch API) after clearing browser cache, then it silently fails. I noticed that IndexedDB database 'emscripten-filesystem' get deleted when I clear the caches.

My question is, do I have to re-create that database again myself (some js code) in order to work? or is there any other way that re-creates the database automatically?

What I do now is use databases() api to check if the database exists, if it doesn't than it reloads the page (reloading the page re-creates the database automatically). Is there any way that doesn't requires me or users to reload the page?

Thanks,
