[Question] TimeoutError on Client Storage

[seriaati]

Question

I have an async Flet app and I've noticed that sometimes TimeoutError occurs.
For example, on await page.client_storage.set_async(...), error: Timeout waiting for invokeMethod clientStorage:set
What does this error mean? Is it safe to be ignored? If not, how should it be handled?
Since I need to access the value being stored later on in the app, the absence of the value might break my app.

Code sample

I see a similar behavior in my app. Especially right after the OAuth login redirects, which happen in the same browser tab using the following command.

page.login( provider, on_open_authorization_url=lambda url: page.launch_url(url, web_window_name="_self"), redirect_to_page=True )

Occasionally, the TimeoutError occurs, other times everything works out smooth. Any help would be much appreciated.

My guess is that either slow internet or slow device hardware caused a long delay between the client storage setKey signal and the flet application receiving it. The key is likely already set in the client storage, just that it took the user's end a long time to respond to the application that the key was set, for some reason.
