Single watcher for multiple keys #999

Open avi12 opened 4 days ago

Feature Request

This snippet allows for watching a single item: https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/blob/c0aa12089e24c9f0cb01fb3f8546f17096b21341/packages/wxt/src/storage.ts#L434-L447

I also wish to have a watcher setup like this:

const unwatch = storage.watch({
  "local:item1"((newValue, oldValue) => {...}),
  "local:item2"((newValue, oldValue) => {...})
});
unwatch();

Is your feature request related to a bug?

N/A

What are the alternatives?

storage.watch("local:item1", (newValue, oldValue) => {...});
storage.watch("local:item2", (newValue, oldValue) => {...});

Additional context

This functionality is available in Plasmo

We can add something like that!

But for most cases, I would recommend just calling watch multiple times. Seems like a classic case of premature optimization.

In my case it's not for the sake of premature optimization but rather increased readability and maintainability, having all of the watchers in one place

Since I have a PR open about some storage changes, I'll take this and add that to the watch
