Phantomaton Persistence 💾

The Phantomaton Persistence module provides a flexible storage abstraction for the Phantomaton ecosystem. It allows other plugins to define and use custom storage providers, enabling a wide range of persistence options.

Storage Extension Point 🗄️

The core of the Phantomaton Persistence module is the storage extension point. This extension point allows plugins to provide their own storage implementation, which can then be used by other parts of the Phantomaton system.

The storage extension point is optional - if no storage provider is registered, it will resolve to undefined. This allows Phantomaton to function without a persistence layer, if needed.

To define a custom storage provider, you can use the plugins.define helper:

import plugins from 'phantomaton-plugins';
import persistence from 'phantomaton-persistence';

const myPlugin = plugins.create([
  plugins.define(persistence.storage)
    .as(new MyStorageProvider())
]);

The storage provider must implement the following interface:

interface StorageProvider {
  load(id: string): Promise<any>;
  save(id: string, object: any): Promise<any>;
}

The load method should retrieve the object with the given id, while the save method should persist the provided object with the given id.

Example Usage 📚

Here's an example of how to use the storage extension point in a Phantomaton plugin:

import plugins from 'phantomaton-plugins';
import persistence from 'phantomaton-persistence';

const myPlugin = plugins.create({
  // Declare that we depend on the storage extension point
  storage: persistence.storage
}, ({ extensions }) => [
  // Define how to use the storage provider
  plugins.define(extensions.start)
    .with(extensions.storage)
    .as(async (storage) => {
      // Check if storage is available
      if (storage) {
        const data = await storage.load('my-data');
        console.log('Loaded data:', data);

        const updatedData = { ...data, new: 'value' };
        await storage.save('my-data', updatedData);
        console.log('Saved data:', updatedData);
      } else {
        console.log('No storage provider available');
      }
    })
]);

In this example, the plugin declares a dependency on the persistence.storage extension point. When the start extension point is resolved, it checks if a storage provider is available before using it to load and save data.
