    Hi.

    I turned on the data cache to see how well it works and it does work.

    Unfortunately for me (and maybe others) It is caching by the URL path fragment.

    I need a way to configure the key.

    Since my builds are versioned - If I could get a callback for generating the key.. I could inject
    the version of the WebGL.data file and the filename as a key and be able to use the file across paths.

    Is there any way that I can generate this key instead?

    Thank you.

    IndexedDB is not shared across domains (for obvious security reasons - you don't want any web site to access any private information another web site stores), so what you are asking for is not possible.

    Hi Jonas.
    Sorry - across domains was a typo.

    I meant to say "I could inject the version of the WebGL.data file and the filename as a key and be able to use the file across URL path fragments".

    The key is the URL path fragment and we use the same file for many url path fragments.

    ie
    /play/123
    /play/232
    /play/33243

    all the same WebGL.data


    I would like to be able to configure the key so that i can use the caching.
    ie:
    'my_key_name-1.23.1-1-webdata'
