692641 - IndexedDB: Don't throw for invalid key-value at keypath

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Storage: IndexedDB, defect)

If you have an index with keypath "foo" and try to insert data like:

{ foo: {} }

We currently throw. However if the "foo" property doesn't exist at all we don't create an entry in the index. In both cases we shouldn't create an entry in the index.

I need to verify that this is the behavior people actually want on the webapps list. So make sure to do this before we start writing code here.

This scenario arises both when inserting data into an objectStore, and when creating a new index for an objectStore which already has data.

Turns out we do this correctly!
