使用附加SDK在Firefox插件中存储更多内容

I want to develop an addon with the addon builder. I read that with simple storage one can have about 5 megabytes for his addon, but 5 mgb won't do it for my app. I need more. What could I do?

我想用插件构建器开发一个插件。我看到，通过简单的存储，他的插件可以有大约5兆字节，但5毫克不会为我的应用程序做到这一点。我需要更多。我能做什么？

You cannot do much given the Add-on SDK API. Instead you could break out of the sandbox and create a file in user's profile directory (see File I/O code snippets). E.g. something along these lines to read the file myData.txt from user's profile:

鉴于Add-on SDK API，您无法做很多事情。相反，您可以打破沙箱并在用户的配置文件目录中创建文件（请参阅文件I / O代码片段）。例如。沿着这些行读取用户配置文件中的文件myData.txt：

var {Cu, components} = require("chrome");
var {FileUtils} = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/FileUtils.jsm");
var {NetUtils} = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/NetUtil.jsm");
var file = FileUtils.getFile("ProfD", ["myData.txt"]);

NetUtil.asyncFetch(file, function(inputStream, status) {
  if (!components.isSuccessCode(status)) {
    // Handle error!
    return;
  }

  // The file data is contained within inputStream.
  // You can read it into a string with
  var data = NetUtil.readInputStreamToString(inputStream, inputStream.available());
  console.log(data);
});

Note that the unusual syntax to import modules is due to bug 683217.

请注意，导入模块的异常语法是由于错误683217。
