The onabort
event handler of the IDBDatabase
interface handles the abort event, fired when attempted access to the database is aborted.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
Syntax
db.onabort = function() { ... }
Example
This example shows an IDBOpenDBRequest.onupgradeneeded
block that creates a new object store; it also includes onerror
and onabort
functions to handle non-success cases.
DBOpenRequest.onupgradeneeded = function(event) {
var db = event.target.result;
db.onerror = function() {
note.innerHTML += '<li>Error opening database.</li>';
};
db.onabort = function() {
note.innerHTML += '<li>Database opening aborted!</li>';
};
// Create an objectStore for this database
var objectStore = db.createObjectStore("toDoList", { keyPath: "taskTitle" });
// define what data items the objectStore will contain
objectStore.createIndex("hours", "hours", { unique: false });
objectStore.createIndex("minutes", "minutes", { unique: false });
objectStore.createIndex("day", "day", { unique: false });
objectStore.createIndex("month", "month", { unique: false });
objectStore.createIndex("year", "year", { unique: false });
objectStore.createIndex("notified", "notified", { unique: false });
note.innerHTML += '<li>Object store created.</li>';
};
