How to save image location in localstorage

I have a question, currently i am trying to save a image location in the localstorage but i have no idea how to do that. I want it in localstorage because once you refresh the page i still want the image that you dragged, in the same spot as where you dragged the image to before the page refresh/reload. The script is like a inventory with items that are images.

This is the code:

const fill1 = document.querySelector('#item1');
const empties1 = document.querySelectorAll('#block1');
const empties2 = document.querySelectorAll('#block2');

const spot1 = document.getElementById("block1")
const spot2 = document.getElementById("block2")

checkSpot1()
checkSpot2()


localStorage.spot1 = 1
localStorage.spot2 = 0

// Fill listeners
fill1.addEventListener('dragstart', dragStart);
fill1.addEventListener('dragend', dragEnd);

// Loop through empty boxes and add listeners
for (const empty of empties1) {
  empty.addEventListener('dragover', dragOver);
  empty.addEventListener('dragenter', dragEnter);
  empty.addEventListener('dragleave', dragLeave);
  empty.addEventListener('drop', dragDrop);
}

for (const empty of empties2) {
    empty.addEventListener('dragover', dragOver);
    empty.addEventListener('dragenter', dragEnter);
    empty.addEventListener('dragleave', dragLeave);
    empty.addEventListener('drop', dragDrop);
  }

// Drag Functions
function dragStart() {
  this.idName += ' hold';
  setTimeout(() => (this.idName = 'invisible'), 0);
}

function dragEnd() {
  this.idName = 'fill1';
}

function dragOver(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
}

function dragEnter(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  this.idName += ' hovered';
}

function dragLeave() {
  this.idName = 'empties1';
  this.idName = 'empties2';
}

function dragDrop() {
    this.idName = 'empties1';
    this.idName = 'empties2';
    this.append(fill1);;
}

function checkSpot1() {
if (localStorage.getItem("spot1") == 1) {
   
}
}

function checkSpot2() {
if (localStorage.getItem("spot2") == 1) {
  
}
}

spot1.addEventListener('dragend', setspot1)
spot2.addEventListener('dragend', setspot2)

function setspot1(){
localStorage.spot1 = 1
localStorage.spot2 = 0
}

function setspot2(){
localStorage.spot1 = 0
localStorage.spot2 = 1
}

But like i said i have no idea how i could store this in localstorage correctly, and make it display were the image was dragged to before the page reload.

If you want to save something to localStorage, it has to be in string format.

So, if you wanted to save spot one, it would look like:

localStorage.setItem("spot1", "0")

where "spot1" is the key and "0" would be the value.

To retrieve from localStorage:

localStorage.getItem("spot1")

This should return "0"

I would implement it like this: (this way you can get x and y coordinates of the dragged element):


// this is for storing --> 
function dragOver(e) {
  e.preventDefault();

  // Get the x and y coordinates 
  var x = e.clientX; 
  var y = e.clientY; 

  // store the value in localStorage
  window.localStorage.setItem('x',x); 
  window.localStorage.setItem('y',y); 

}


// => same as JQuerys document.ready(); 
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(event) { 

    // read the data from localstorage 
    var x = window.localStorage.getItem('x'); 
    var y = window.localStorage.getItem('y'); 

    // Now you have to set the element position to the stored values
    // I am assuming you want to set it for block1, and that block1 has absolute 
    // positioning 

    // only set the position if there is already a value stored
    if( x && y )
    {

       // I found a pure Javascript solution now
       document.getElementById("block1").style.left = x+"px";
       document.getElementById("block1").style.top = y+"px";

    }

});
