What is PainlessStorageJSON?

It adapts the PainlessStorageAdapter to form to loading and saving a json string and its one of the most basic and simple storage adapters.

It's also important to note that this entire module is built to be asynchronous for any operation except read operations since read uses the in-memory cache where the whole data is stored.

Even the emitted events are asynchronous using my PainlessEventEmitter package over the native and dreadfully synchronous EventEmitter.

Why is it called PainlessStorageJSON?

Because I'm starting a simple- series but most of them are already taken so I'm being safe and using painless instead lol.

OK so how do I begin?

Well i encourage you to look through the API docs online here.

A lot of hard work went into making sure the api docs are full and complete. For a bit of speed there's a getting started tutorial also in the docs, direct link here.

A quick note about the event system

The Event System is based on my own emitter inspired from the native NodeJS EventEmitter. I call it PainlessEventEmitter.

It allows listeners or subscribers to be either asynchronous or synchronous and their treated the same (asynchronously synchronous) or waiting til one listener gets done before the other one is fired even if the listener is asynchronous, it'll still get waited on in a non-blocking manner.

If a listener needs to be asynchronous, return a promise or just prefix with the es6 async keyword.

Full details on PainlessEventEmitter can be found here.

And a quick overview for this module can be found in this modules docs here.

This package is solid
