Storages

Creating Custom Storages

To create a storage, you must extend the Storage structure.

Example

// myStorage.js
const { Storage } = require('laffey');

module.exports = class MyStorage extends Storage {
     constructor() {
         super('storage');
     }

     add(pkt) {
        // required to add the "user" packet
     }

     remove(pkt) {
        // required to remove the "user" packet
     }
};

// instance.js
const { Instance } = require('laffey');
const Storage = require('path/to/my/storage/file');

const i = new Instance({ storage: new Storage() });

Memory Storage

Comes with Laffey pre-built

The memory storage is with an Collection of voters but refreshes when the server restarts or disconnects.

new Instance({
    storage: new MemoryStorage({
        // name (optional): The name of the Collection
        name: 'awau'
    })
});

Redis Storage

Comes with Laffey pre-built

The redis storage is more optimized in performance and not much heavy as the Memory Storage

You must have an redis server prebuilt or it'll not work.

new Instance({
    storage: new RedisStorage({
        // port (required): The port to use from Redis
        port: 6379,

        // host (optional): The host to connect to (default: 'localhost')
        host: 'localhost'
    })
});
