Safari in private browsing mode throws error

[i8ramin]

Hey guys, it seems like Safari disables local/session storage when in private browsing mode. This causes angular apps to fail when trying to use the store methods. The error thrown:

Error: QuotaExceededError: DOM Exception 22

It would be nice to fall back to cookies in this instance or at least catch the error and do something with it.

Keep in mind that you will need to include angular-cookies and ngCookies in your app for this to work.

+1 for the problem

please add this check for localStorage to resolve problem.

this work both Safari private mode and ios cordova.

function isLocalStorageSupported() {
  var storage = window. localStorage,
        key = 'test';
  try {
    storage.setItem(key, '1');
    storage.removeItem(key);
    return true;
  } catch (error) {
    return false;
  }
}
