The indexeddb is a new HTML5 concept to store the data inside user's browser. indexeddb is more power than local storage and useful for applications that requires to store large amount of the data. These applications can run more efficiency and load faster.

Why to use indexeddb?

The W3C has announced that the Web SQL database is a deprecated local storage specification so web developer should not use this technology any more. indexeddb is an alternative for web SQL data base and more effective than older technologies.

Features

  • it stores key-pair values
  • it is not a relational database
  • IndexedDB API is mostly asynchronous
  • it is not a structured query language
  • it has supported to access the data from same domain

IndexedDB

Before enter into an indexeddb, we need to add some prefixes of implementation as shown below
window.indexedDB = window.indexedDB || window.mozIndexedDB || window.webkitIndexedDB || window.msIndexedDB;
 
window.IDBTransaction = window.IDBTransaction || window.webkitIDBTransaction || window.msIDBTransaction;
window.IDBKeyRange = window.IDBKeyRange || window.webkitIDBKeyRange || window.msIDBKeyRange
 
if (!window.indexedDB) {
   window.alert("Your browser doesn't support a stable version of IndexedDB.")
}

Open an IndexedDB database

Before creating a database, we have to prepare some data for the data base.let's start with company employee details.
const employeeData = [
   { id: "01", name: "Gopal K Varma", age: 35, email: "contact@tutorialspoint.com" },
   { id: "02", name: "Prasad", age: 24, email: "prasad@tutorialspoint.com" }
];

Adding the data

Here adding some data manually into the data as shown below −
function add() {
   var request = db.transaction(["employee"], "readwrite")
   .objectStore("employee")
   .add({ id: "01", name: "prasad", age: 24, email: "prasad@tutorialspoint.com" });
   
   request.onsuccess = function(event) {
      alert("Prasad has been added to your database.");
   };
   
   request.onerror = function(event) {
      alert("Unable to add data\r\nPrasad is already exist in your database! ");
   }
}

Retrieving Data

We can retrieve the data from the data base using with get()
function read() {
   var transaction = db.transaction(["employee"]);
   var objectStore = transaction.objectStore("employee");
   var request = objectStore.get("00-03");
   
   request.onerror = function(event) {
      alert("Unable to retrieve daa from database!");
   };
   
   request.onsuccess = function(event) {
      if(request.result) {
         alert("Name: " + request.result.name + ", Age: " + request.result.age + ", Email: " + request.result.email);
      }
      
      else {
         alert("Kenny couldn't be found in your database!");  
      }
   };
}
Using with get(), we can store the data in object instead of that we can store the data in cursor and we can retrieve the data from cursor
function readAll() {
   var objectStore = db.transaction("employee").objectStore("employee");
   
   objectStore.openCursor().onsuccess = function(event) {
      var cursor = event.target.result;
      
      if (cursor) {
         alert("Name for id " + cursor.key + " is " + cursor.value.name + ", Age: " + cursor.value.age + ", Email: " + cursor.value.email);
         cursor.continue();
      }
      
      else {
         alert("No more entries!");
      }
   };
}

Removing the data

We can remove the data from IndexedDB with remove().Here is how the code looks like
function remove() {
   var request = db.transaction(["employee"], "readwrite")
   .objectStore("employee")
   .delete("02");
   
   request.onsuccess = function(event) {
      alert("prasad entry has been removed from your database.");
   };
}

HTML Code

To show all the data we need to use onClick event as shown below code −
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <head>
   
      <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
      <title>IndexedDb Demo | onlyWebPro.com</title>
   
   </head>
   <body>
   
      <button onclick="read()">Read </button>
      <button onclick="readAll()"></button>
      <button onclick="add()"></button>
      <button onclick="remove()">Delete </button>
      
   </body>
</html>
Final code should be as
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
   <head>
   
      <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
      <script type="text/javascript">
         //prefixes of implementation that we want to test
         window.indexedDB = window.indexedDB || window.mozIndexedDB || window.webkitIndexedDB || window.msIndexedDB;
         
         //prefixes of window.IDB objects
         window.IDBTransaction = window.IDBTransaction || window.webkitIDBTransaction || window.msIDBTransaction;
         window.IDBKeyRange = window.IDBKeyRange || window.webkitIDBKeyRange || window.msIDBKeyRange
         
         if (!window.indexedDB) {
            window.alert("Your browser doesn't support a stable version of IndexedDB.")
         }
         
         const employeeData = [
            { id: "00-01", name: "gopal", age: 35, email: "gopal@tutorialspoint.com" },
            { id: "00-02", name: "prasad", age: 32, email: "prasad@tutorialspoint.com" }
         ];
         var db;
         var request = window.indexedDB.open("newDatabase", 1);
         
         request.onerror = function(event) {
            console.log("error: ");
         };
         
         request.onsuccess = function(event) {

         };
         
         request.onupgradeneeded = function(event) {
            var db = event.target.result;
            var objectStore = db.createObjectStore("employee", {keyPath: "id"});

In this chapter, we will see how to enable remote desktop application. It is important because this enables us to work remotely on the server. To do this, we have the following two options. For the first option, we have to follow the steps given below. Step 1  − Go to Start → right click “This PC” → Properties. Step 2  − On Left side click “Remote Setting”. Step 3  − Check radio button “Allow Remote connection to this computer” and Check box “Allow connection only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication (recommended)” → click “Select Users”. Step 4  − Click Add. Step 5  − Type user that you want to allow access. In my case, it is administrator → click OK. For the  second option , we need to follow the steps given below. Step 1  − Click on “Server Manage” → Local Server → click on “Enable” or Disable, if it is Disabled.
The Windows Firewall with Advanced Security is a firewall that runs on the Windows Server 2012 and is turned on by default. The Firewall settings within Windows Server 2012 are managed from within the  Windows Firewall Microsoft Management Console . To set Firewall settings perform the following steps − Step 1  − Click on the Server Manager from the task bar → Click the Tools menu and select Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. Step 2  − To see the current configuration settings by selecting  Windows Firewall Properties  from the MMC. This  allows access to modify the settings  for each of the three firewall profiles, which are –  Domain, Private and Public  and IPsec settings. Step 3  − Applying custom rules, which will include the following two steps − Select either  Inbound Rules  or  Outbound Rules  under  Windows Firewall with Advanced Security  on the left side of the management console...
The table creation command requires: Name of the table Names of fields Definitions for each field Syntax: Here is generic SQL syntax to create a MySQL table: CREATE TABLE table_name ( column_name column_type ); Now, we will create following table in  TUTORIALS  database. tutorials_tbl ( tutorial_id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT , tutorial_title VARCHAR ( 100 ) NOT NULL , tutorial_author VARCHAR ( 40 ) NOT NULL , submission_date DATE , PRIMARY KEY ( tutorial_id ) ); Here few items need explanation: Field Attribute  NOT NULL  is being used because we do not want this field to be NULL. So if user will try to create a record with NULL value, then MySQL will raise an error. Field Attribute  AUTO_INCREMENT  tells MySQL to go ahead and add the next available number to the id field. Keyword  PRIMARY KEY  is used to define a column as primary key. You can use multiple columns separated by comma to define...
