The version
property of the IDBDatabase
interface is a 64-bit integer that contains the version of the connected database. When a database is first created, this attribute is an empty string.
Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.
Syntax
db.version
Value
An integer containing the version of the connected database.
Example
// Let us open our database var DBOpenRequest = window.indexedDB.open("toDoList", 4); // these two event handlers act on the database being opened successfully, or not DBOpenRequest.onerror = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Error loading database.</li>'; }; DBOpenRequest.onsuccess = function(event) { note.innerHTML += '<li>Database initialised.</li>'; // store the result of opening the database in the db variable. This is used a lot below db = DBOpenRequest.result; // This line will log the version of the connected database, which should be "4" console.log(db.version); };
