I am a beginner and learning by working on tutorials.
I am using the NASA API and displaying the images using a modal. The modals have a button, however, I don’t know how to connect it to the local storage and save it to the favourites section.
Appreciate any help, thanks.
<!-- The Modal -->
<div id="myModal" class="modal">
<span class="close">×</span>
<img class="modal-content" id="img01">
<span><button>Add To Favourites</button></span>
<div id="caption"></div>
</div>
// Save Text
const saveText = document.createElement("p");
saveText.classList.add("clickable");
if (page === "results") {
saveText.textContent = "Add To Favorites";
saveText.setAttribute("onclick", `saveFavorite('${result.url}')`);
} else {
saveText.textContent = "Remove Favorite";
saveText.setAttribute("onclick", `removeFavorite('${result.url}')`);
}
// Update the DOM
function updateDOM(page) {
// Get favorites from local storage
if (localStorage.getItem("nasaFavorites")) {
favorites = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("nasaFavorites"));
}
imagesContainer.textContent = "";
createDOMNodes(page);
showContent(page);
}
// Add result to favorites
function saveFavorite(itemUrl) {
// Loop through the results array to select favorite
resultsArray.forEach((item) => {
if (item.url.includes(itemUrl) && !favorites[itemUrl]) {
favorites[itemUrl] = item;
// Show save confirmation for 2 seconds
saveConfirmed.hidden = false;
setTimeout(() => {
saveConfirmed.hidden = true;
}, 2000);
// Set Favorites in Local Storage
localStorage.setItem("nasaFavorites", JSON.stringify(favorites));
}
});
}
// Remove item from favorites
function removeFavorite(itemUrl) {
if (favorites[itemUrl]) {
delete favorites[itemUrl];
localStorage.setItem("nasaFavorites", JSON.stringify(favorites));
updateDOM("favorites");
}
}
// On Load
getNasaPictures();
