How do I save my repository level settings?

[Kaushik Veluru]

Hi, 

I have created an add-on and added some per-repository level settings. I have the enable and disable toggle button on the settings page. Now, when either selection is made, how do I save that information so that I can use that while rendering some other pages accordingly. 

Can I use localstorage to save the setting configuration? Would that be a problem when there are more than one user?

Edit: I have got to know about Active Objects. I believe that's the way forward. Please let me know if that's the right approach. 

Thanks,

Kaushik

Since the data to be stored is very small for my plugin, I have used PluginSettings java API to store my data on the server. It's pretty easy compared to Active Objects. I would recommend Plugin Settings over Active Objects if the data is very small.
