as-store

Asynchronous local storage (Write through cache)

A local storage wrapper, that helps to write data to disk asynchronously. It uses in-mem cache for faster "READ"

Install

npm install as-store

Usage

Methods:

1. AsStore.setItem(key, value) - set value for key in as-store
2. AsStore.getItem(key) - lookup data for key from as-store
3. AsStore.removeItem(key) - remove key from as-store
4. AsStore.flush() - flush all the data from as-store
5. AsStore.onWriteComplete(function) - attach handler to disk "WRITE". funciton will be called when writing to disk.

Why it's fast and non-blocking ?

setItem - doesn't write the data to disk immediately. Non-blocking. Process multiple write operation at once (with 500ms throttling).
getItem - doesn't read data from disk. It maintain a hash map in client. It directly returns data from memory.
