Store Library

The store library provides a simple method to store key/value pairs in a persistent storage mechanism (SQLite database). This library can be imported into Translator projects, the source code can be found here: https://bitbucket.org/interfaceware/store2_library/src/main/store.lua

The store library is simple to use. The store.connect("\<database_name>") function is first called with the name of the SQLite database to be used for the store. The database file with a “store“ table is automatically created and added to the Translator project.

local MyStore = store.connect(“myDatabase.db”)

Use the following functions:

  • MyStore:put() to store information

  • MyStore:get() to get information

  • MyStore:info() to return all stored data

  • MyStore:reset() to empty the store (deletes all stored data)

  • MyStore:delete() to delete the store database file
