data-keeper is a utility node-module for keep temporary data (json object) in files. The data will be compressed for disk space saving.

npm install data-keeper

const DataKeeper = require('data-keeper');
let dataKeeper = new DataKeeper();

• init(string)
• write(object)
• read([int])
• dataAvailable()

Set the file path of the storage.

let basePath = path.join(__dirname, '/resume');
dataKeeper.init(basePath);

Write a data record to file.

let data = { t1: 1, t3: 3, ts: new Date() };
dataKeeper.write(data);

Get a few of data records from files. The input is the count of data that you want. If no input, the default count is 100.

let records = keeper.read(100);

Check if any data records exist or not.

For example:

while (keeper.dataAvailable()) {  // check any records exist or not
  let records = keeper.read(100);  // get 100 records back
}
