Am I blind or there’s no way to make dictionary-like storage?
key-value are essential for my project.
I’d like to have it on the client-side: I tried using data store but it seems like it isn’t made for key-value parameters.
Any tips?
Sorry I’m not familiar with ‘dictionary-like storage’. But almost everything with Wappler is key-value based. So can you give an example of what you’d like to do?
Something like this:
key:1
value: Hey!
key: 2
value: What’s up?
retrieve key 1+key 2, result = Hey!What’s up?
I need to display a title on the screen, based on a variable which contains these numbers (1,2)
Keyed objects were covered for translation purposes, could easily be adapted, has some good information in this thread:

This is not client-side, so I’d have to make a database request each time
Should work with the data store? Maybe @George or @Teodor could offer some direction for you.
Welcome to Wappler by the way! Am sure an answer to your question will come about shortly @panoc75392
Hope this helps:
-
Create a datastore
-
Populate the datastore with a button
-
Print the data on the page using
{{view.datastore1.data[0][1]}}
{{view.datastore1.data[0][2]}}
- Result:
2022.02.08 12.33 - 3865 - Chick
Tip: use this in the console to debug what’s inside your data store:
dmx.app.data.view.datastore1.data
Note: sometimes it’s ...data.view other times it is ...data.content for me, so you might have to replace it

Exactly this, what I was looking for.
Instead of a button, I added a Flow with Auto Run so that when the page loads, it writes all the data into the datastore.
Thank you @karh

You’re welcome 
Glad it helped!
Out of curiousity: what kind of data are you using this for? I’m loading everything from the database or just hard code it into the page.
I needed it to be hard-coded into the page in this case.
