General Concepts

Callbacks or Events - the choice is yours!

Pass a callback to a list-oriented method and you'll get an array of results in the callback. Leave off the callback and you'll get an event emitter which will emit 'data' events for each item and an 'end' event with a count of items.

var storage = require('bluesky').storage();

var container = storage.container('test');

container.list().on('data', function(blob) {
  console.log(blob);
}).on('end', function(count) {
  console.log(count);
});

This applies to lists of containers, blobs, tables and queues. It also applies to the rows() method on a table object.

It all starts with 'storage'

The storage API's are accessible via a reference to storage, which is obtained by:

var storage = require('bluesky').storage(options);

Available options include:

• account
• key

You can also invoke it without an account and key to access the local storage emulator:

var storage = require('bluesky').storage();
