Equivalent of simple storage API for restartless firefox extension

Is there an equivalent to this API or a way to call it from a restartless extension? I need to store a few strings between browser sessions.

I have found this but it seems too complicated for simple string storage. Does the SS API use the same thing behind the scene?

Solution

  • You can import any SDK module into normal restartless extensions this way:

    const { devtools } = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/devtools/Loader.jsm", {});
const { require } = devtools;

let ss = require('sdk/simple-storage');
