Support for working offline by saving heartbeats locally #69

Closed alanhamlett closed 1 year ago

Editor plugins support offline coding, and this extension should too. It could store heartbeats in chrome.storage.local with a capacity of 5MB. This would be local to the user's computer and not synced, since the chrome.storage.sync limit of 100KB is too low.

it will be very good having this feature supported. since wakatime connection issues could happen occasionally.

V3 already hasIndexedDB integrated which supports storage capacity over 50MB which should be fine IMO for the extension/addon Here is where it gets created.

This means when a user gets disconnected from the internet we store heartbeat inIndexedDB, once we detect the user is back online we send the heartbeats to Wakatime API
