Plugin Keys: Information Storage #108

Closed obsess closed 11 years ago

obsess commented 11 years ago

I love this plugin. A wonderful idea and great work! I however don't understand the unique portal ID that is stores in localStorage before each key count. Is there a way to convert this portal ID into a usable data set like lat, long, portal name? If not can these items be added in the array and saved to localStorage also? It would make the data usable and real for coordination purposes and import/export. Thanks for your time!

This unique portal ID can be used to look up the rest of the details from window.portals - as long as the portal is loaded.

However, exporting of data is not something I'm willing to accept as a plugin. IITC is only barely tolerated by Google/Niantic as it is - features extracting data outside of the browser environment risk a takedown request.

A plugin to list the portals with keys would be OK. It might make sense to extend the existing portal list plugin to integrate with the keys one, to save starting from scratch.
