#### type Filer
```go
type Filer interface {
// Backend returns the underlying key/value store.
Backend() any
// Has should return true if the given key has an associated value.
Has(key []byte) bool
// Get should retrieve the byte slice corresponding to the given key, and any associated errors upon failure.
Get(key []byte) ([]byte, error)
// Put should insert the value data in a way that is associated and can be retrieved by the given key data.
Put(key []byte, value []byte) error
// Delete should delete the key and the value associated with the given key, and return an error upon failure.
Delete(key []byte) error
// Close should safely end any Filer operations of the given dataStore and close any relevant handlers.
Close() error
// Sync should take any volatile data and solidify it somehow if relevant. (ram to disk in most cases)
Sync() error
Keys() [][]byte
Len() int
}
```
Filer is is a way to implement any generic key/value store. These functions
should be plug and play with most of the popular key/value store golang
libraries.
NOTE: Many key/value golang libraries will already implement this interface
already. This exists for more potential granular control in the case that they
don't. Otherwise you'd have to build a wrapper around an existing key/value
store to satisfy an overencompassing interface.
#### type Keeper
```go
type Keeper interface {
// Path should return the base path where all stores should be stored under. (likely as subdirectories)
Path() string
// Init should initialize our Filer at the given path, to be referenced and called by dataStore.
Init(name string, options ...any) error
// With provides access to the given dataStore by providing a pointer to the related Filer.
With(name string) Store
AllStores() map[string]Filer
CloseAll() error
SyncAll() error
}
```
Keeper will be in charge of the more meta operations involving Filers. This
includes operations like initialization, syncing to disk if applicable, and
backing up.
#### type Searcher
```go
type Searcher interface {
// PrefixScan must retrieve all keys in the datastore and stream them to the given channel.
PrefixScan(prefix string) (<-chan *kv.KeyValue, chan error)
// Search must be able to search through the value contents of our database and stream the results to the given channel.
Search(query string) (<-chan *kv.KeyValue, chan error)
// ValueExists searches for an exact match of the given value and returns the key that contains it.
ValueExists(value []byte) (key []byte, ok bool)
}
```
Searcher must be able to search through our datastore(s) with strings.
#### type Store
```go
type Store interface {
Filer
Searcher
}
```
Store is an implementation of a Filer and a Searcher.
