class LocalStorage


An AppSearch storage system which stores data locally in the app's storage space using a bundled version of the search native library.

The search native library is an on-device searching library that allows apps to define androidx.appsearch.app.AppSearchSchemas, save and query a variety of Documents. The library needs to be initialized before using, which will create a folder to save data in the app's storage space.

Queries are executed multi-threaded, but a single thread is used for mutate requests (put, delete, etc..).
