IBM Worklight 6.0.0.1 - How to JSONStore init without server connectivity?

Question

I am trying to initialize a JSONStore collection when my mobile device does not have a network connection. I have set the option, however, the init never completes.

{localKeyGen: true}

The same code runs fine if the device has a network connection.

Is there something else that I need to code in order to work with a local token while offline?

Did you take a look at the JSONStore sample application? (to compare your code)

• For 6.0.0.x the sample is part of a larger zip file, that can be downloaded at this location.
• I have tried this with the 6.1.0 sample, but the code diff should not be drastically different...

The sample application is set to connectOnStartup: false, so whether your device is online or not, it does not matter. It is also not important to deploy the adapter for this specific issue.

In the project > apps > JSONStoreAPI > common > js > main.js I have added localKeyGen: true to the options variable:

var options = { 
    localKeyGen: true
};

This variable is passed while using WL.JSONStore.init(collections, options).

I then built and deployed the project and continued to preview it in Worklight Console as well as test on an Android device (while in airplane mode).

I have entered a username and password (required if localKeyGen is to be used), and clicked on the login/initialize button, which passed successfully and the collection was initialized.
