Manages data stored locally by web sites.
WebKitWebsiteDataManager allows you to manage the data that websites can store in the client file system like databases or caches. You
can use WebKitWebsiteDataManager to configure the local directories where the Website data will be stored, by creating a new manager with
WebsiteDataManager passing the values you want to
set. You can set all the possible configuration values or only some of them, a default value will be used automatically for the
configuration options not provided. base_data_directory
and base_cache_directory are two special properties
that can be used to set a common base directory for all Website data and caches. It's possible to provide both, a base directory and a
specific value, but in that case, the specific value takes precedence over the base directory. The newly created WebKitWebsiteDataManager
must be passed as a construct property to a WebContext, you can use
WebContext.with_website_data_manager to
create a new WebContext with a WebKitWebsiteDataManager. In case you don't want to set
any specific configuration, you don't need to create a WebKitWebsiteDataManager, the
WebContext will create a WebKitWebsiteDataManager with the default configuration. To get the WebKitWebsiteDataManager of a
WebContext you can use
get_website_data_manager.
A WebKitWebsiteDataManager can also be ephemeral and then all the directories configuration is not needed because website data will never
persist. You can create an ephemeral WebKitWebsiteDataManager with
WebsiteDataManager.ephemeral. Then you
can pass an ephemeral WebKitWebsiteDataManager to a WebContext to make it ephemeral or
use WebContext.ephemeral and the
WebKitWebsiteDataManager will be automatically created by the WebContext.
WebKitWebsiteDataManager can also be used to fetch websites data, remove data stored by particular websites, or clear data for all
websites modified since a given period of time.
