Talk:Greasemonkey Manual:API

GM_getObject/GM_setObject

I think these two additional functions might be handy:

function GM_getObject( name, default )
function GM_setObject( name, value )

Implementation:

function GM_getObject(name, defaultValue) {
	var s = GM_getValue(name);

	if (s === undefined) {
		return defaultValue;
	}
	else {
		return JSON.parse(s);
	}
}

function GM_setObject(name, value) {
	GM_setValue(name, JSON.stringify(value));
}

It is the general policy of Greasemonkey to not implement a special API just to build something that a user script can easily do on its own. Something like this is a perfect candidate for a reusable component in the Category:@require Library. Arantius 12:55, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
