Methods

construct()

construct(Ctor: ILoaderResultEntry<T>, data: HydratedModuleData): T

Constructs a Piece instance.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
Ctor	ILoaderResultEntry<T>	The Piece's constructor used to build the instance.
data	HydratedModuleData	The module's information

Returns

T

An instance of the constructed piece.

Defined in

projects/pieces/src/lib/structures/Store.ts:335

---

insert()

insert(piece: T): Promise<T>

Inserts a piece into the store.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
piece	T	The piece to be inserted into the store.

Returns

Promise<T>

The inserted piece.

Defined in

projects/pieces/src/lib/structures/Store.ts:298

---

load()

load(root: string, path: string): Promise<T[]>

Loads one or more pieces from a path.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
root	string	The root directory the file is from.
path	string	The path of the file to load, relative to the root.

Returns

Promise<T[]>

All the loaded pieces.

Defined in

projects/pieces/src/lib/structures/Store.ts:182

---

loadAll()

loadAll(): Promise<void>

Loads all pieces from all directories specified by paths.

Returns

Promise<void>

Defined in

projects/pieces/src/lib/structures/Store.ts:241

---

loadPiece()

loadPiece(entry: StoreManuallyRegisteredPiece<StoreName>): Promise<void>

Adds a piece into the store's list of manually registered pieces. If () was called, the piece will be loaded immediately, otherwise it will be queued until () is called.

All manually registered pieces will be kept even after they are loaded to ensure they can be loaded again if () is called again.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
entry	StoreManuallyRegisteredPiece<StoreName>	The entry to load.

Returns

Promise<void>

Remarks

• Pieces loaded this way will have their root and path set to VirtualPath, and as such, cannot be reloaded.
• This method is useful in environments where file system access is limited or unavailable, such as when using Serverless Computing.
• This method will always throw a TypeError if entry.piece is not a class.
• This method will always throw a LoaderError if the piece does not extend the store's piece constructor.
• This operation is atomic, if any of the above errors are thrown, the piece will not be loaded.
