Suggestion: Example Repo

[janwirth]

From the readme alone I find it hard to get a program that compiles.

Can you provide an example repo?

Hi @FranzSkuffka, thanks for dropping a line.

I'll try to find some time in the next week or two to add an examples directory with at least one solid example.

Do you have any specific questions? Or suggestions for improving the readme?

[paulstatezny]

Feel free to email me in the meantime, (see my GitHub profile,) I'd be glad to work through some code with you.

Hey Paul - thank you for the prompt reply. I think I had issues importing the module. THe import statements were missing completely from the elm code example.

[janwirth]

I just came across the API reference and I'll try to go from there. I did not see that. Sorry.

ERROR in ./src/elm/Main.elm
Module build failed: Error: Compiler process exited with error Compilation failed
I cannot find module 'Ports.LocalStorage'.

Module 'Main' is trying to import it.

    "source-directories": [
        "src/elm",
        "../../node_modules/elm-local-storage-ports/lib/elm",
        "./"
    ],

Okey, I got it working. The problem was with elm not resolving the src dir for some reason. However I saw that this lib does not support listening to the onstorage event which I need.

@FranzSkuffka Thanks for all the feedback. Was there something inaccurate/misleading in the docs regarding the source directory? Let me know so I can fix. 🙂

So I'm grouping this and #3 as identical feature requests. Let me see if I can whip something up.

(Edit: Added this feature, see #3)

Here's something to look at @FranzSkuffka : https://github.com/paulstatezny/example-elm-local-storage-ports-app

I'll plan to add an examples folder in this repo in the future though.
