localDataStorage.verbosity( [mode] )

This setting does not directly affect data storage or retrieval but determines how garrulously the library behaves, where responses are either terse (default) or chatty. When the optional mode is omitted, the verbosity setting is returned. When specified, it must be a value that refers to Boolean true or false to indicate the desired mode of operation.

This setting can have a drastic effect on output. It is not recommended for production environments.

EXAMPLES:

Check the current setting: ● localData.verbosity()  -->   Verbosity is off

When checking the amount of storage used, normal output is terse: ● localData.showquotaused()  -->  514 bytes

Now we shall set the verbosity mode for extended output: ● localData.verbosity( 1 )  -->   Verbosity is on

This method now displays much more data in an informative tone: ● localData.showquotaused()  -->  Total storage used is 514 bytes (consuming 1.03 KB of memory)

Verbosity is deactivated: ● localData.verbosity( false )  -->   Verbosity is off
