A simple, localStorage-like way to interact with Chrome's Storage API.

simple-chrome-storage.js

var scs = {
    set: function(key,value,type) {
        var kvo = {};
        kvo[key] = value;
        var cs;
        if (type == "local") {
            cs = chrome.storage.local;
        } else {
            cs = chrome.storage.sync;
        }
        cs.set(kvo);
    },
    
    get: function(key,type) {
        var retVal;
        var cs;
        if (type == "local") {
            cs = chrome.storage.local;
        } else {
            cs = chrome.storage.sync;
        }
        cs.get(key,function(r){
            retVal = r[key];
        });
        return retVal;
    }
}

// scs.set("waffles",true)
// scs.get("waffles") 
// --> true
