### Class

# WebKit WebsiteDataManager

#### Description [src]

    final class WebKit.WebsiteDataManager : GObject.Object {
      /* No available fields */
    }

Manages data stored locally by web sites.

You can use WebKitWebsiteDataManager to configure the local directories where website data will be stored. Use `WebKitWebsiteDataManager:base-data-directory` and `WebKitWebsiteDataManager:base-cache-directory` set a common base directory for all website data and caches.

A WebKitWebsiteDataManager can be ephemeral, in which case all the directory configuration is not needed because website data will never persist. You can create an ephemeral WebKitWebsiteDataManager with webkit_website_data_manager_new_ephemeral().

WebKitWebsiteDataManager can also be used to fetch website data, remove data stored by particular websites, or clear data for all websites modified since a given period of time.

###### WebKit.WebsiteDataManager:base-data-directory

The base directory for website data. If `NULL`, a default location will be used.

###### WebKit.WebsiteDataManager:is-ephemeral

Whether the `WebKitWebsiteDataManager` is ephemeral. An ephemeral `WebKitWebsiteDataManager` handles all websites data as non-persistent, and nothing will be written to the client storage. Note that if you create an ephemeral `WebKitWebsiteDataManager` all other construction parameters to configure data directories will be ignored.

Available since: 2.16

###### WebKit.WebsiteDataManager:origin-storage-ratio

The percentage of volume space that can be used for data storage for every domain. If the maximum storage is reached the storage request will fail with a QuotaExceededError exception. A value of 0.0 means that data storage is not allowed. A value of -1.0, which is the default, means WebKit will use the default quota (1 GiB).

Available since: 2.42

###### WebKit.WebsiteDataManager:total-storage-ratio

The percentage of volume space that can be used for data storage for all domains. If the maximum storage is reached the eviction will happen. A value of 0.0 means that data storage is not allowed. A value of -1.0, which is the default, means there’s no limit for the total storage.
