Stores

Stores are global containers of application specific data. They are defined with the store keyword:

store Counter.Store {
  state counter : Number = 0

  fun increment : Promise(Void) {
    next { counter: counter + 1 }
  }

  fun decrement : Promise(Void) {
    next { counter: counter - 1 }
  }
}

In the example above, we defined a store for a global counter with a function to increment it and one to decrement it.

Stores are:

• global - which means they are accessible from anywhere (for example: Counter.Store.counter ). This also means all accesses update the same, shared data.
• mutable - their data can be changed using a next call (but only inside the store)
• they can only contain functions and states

States

States on a store define keys which correspond to specific type of values. They can be accessed by their name.
