• How to access indexedDB API indexedDB.databases() via idb

[jakearchibald]

Why do you need to do it via idb?

[jakearchibald]

Closing this, since it isn't a bug in the library, but I'll continue to provide support.

@jakearchibald In typescript throwing error on using raw API

Property 'databases' does not exist on type 'IDBFactory'.

70     const databases = await indexedDB.databases();
                                         ~~~~~~~~~

Why do you need to do it via idb?

Moving data from one database to another database if the old database exist

[jakearchibald]

TypeScript is wrong. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IDBFactory/databases

However, Firefox doesn't support that method.

[pranavwani]

Exactly.

Currently building the app in electron.

[pranavwani]

I think I've to create a bug in the typescript repository

[pranavwani]

@jakearchibald in the latest version of the TypeScript added the definitions and fixed the issue by declaring global type in .d.ts

declare global {
    interface IDBFactory {
        databases: () => Promise<IDBDatabaseInfo[]>
    }
}

[jakearchibald]

Nice!
