How to Remove Key Values from LocalStorage in JavaScript: An Easy Guide

Working with LocalStorage in JavaScript can sometimes be a little tricky, especially when you're dealing with complex structures like JSON objects. One common scenario is needing to remove a specific item from your LocalStorage. This guide will walk you through the process step by step, showing you how to effectively delete a key value from a JSON object stored in LocalStorage.

The Problem at Hand

Let's set the scene. Imagine you have a key in your LocalStorage called productsInCart. The value for this key is a JSON object that looks something like this:

Now, suppose you want to delete the entry with the id 11011002. The challenge here is to modify the JSON object by removing the specific key without breaking the whole structure.

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1: Retrieve the Data

First, you need to retrieve the existing data from LocalStorage and parse it into a usable format (an object). You would use the following code:

Step 2: Convert to an Array

Since the data is structured as an object, you cannot directly filter it as you would with an array. Therefore, convert the keys of the object to an array, using the following approach:

Step 3: Filter Out the Item

Next, you will filter the array to exclude the item you want to remove. Here’s how to do it:

In this line, the code checks each item and retains only those whose key does not equal 11011002.

Step 4: Update LocalStorage

Finally, it's time to push your changes back into LocalStorage. Convert the filtered list back into a JSON string and save it:
