Simple Storage

Read and Write Using the db Helper

The db helpers reads/writes to json files in the ~/.kenv/db directory. It's meant as a simple wrapper around common json operations.

// Menu: Database Read/Write Example
// Description: Add/remove items from a list of fruit

let fruitDb = await db(["apple", "banana", "orange"])

// This will keep prompting until you hit Escape
while (true) {
  let fruitToAdd = await arg(
    {
      placeholder: "Add a fruit",
      //allows to submit input not in the list
      strict: false,
    },
    fruitDb.items
  )

  fruitDb.items.push(fruitToAdd)
  await fruitDb.write()

  let fruitToDelete = await arg(
    "Delete a fruit",
    fruitDb.items
  )

  fruitDb.items = fruitDb.items.filter(
    fruit => fruit !== fruitToDelete
  )

  await fruitDb.write()
}
