+ * The persisters module of the TinyBase project provides a simple framework
+ * for saving and loading Store data, to and from different destinations, or
+ * underlying storage types.
+ *
+ * Several entry points are provided, each of which returns a new Persister
+ * object that can load and save a Store:
+ *
+ * - The createSessionPersister function returns a Persister that uses the
+ *   browser's session storage.
+ * - The createLocalPersister function returns a Persister that uses the
+ *   browser's local storage.
+ * - The createRemotePersister function returns a Persister that uses a remote
+ *   server.
+ * - The createFilePersister function returns a Persister that uses a local file
+ *   (in an appropriate environment).
+ *
+ * Since persistence requirements can be different for every app, the
+ * createCustomPersister function can also be used to easily create a fully
+ * customized way to save and load Store data.

+/**
+ * A Persister object lets you save and load Store data to and from different
+ * locations, or underlying storage types.
+ *
+ * This is useful for preserving Store data between browser sessions or reloads,
+ * saving or loading browser state to or from a server, or saving Store data to
+ * disk in a environment with filesystem access.
+ *
+ * Creating a Persister depends on the choice of underlying storage where the
+ * data is to be stored. Options include the createSessionPersister function,
+ * the createLocalPersister, the createRemotePersister function, and the
+ * createFilePersister function. The createCustomPersister function can also be
+ * used to easily create a fully customized way to save and load Store data.
+ *
+ * A Persister lets you explicit save or load data, with the save method and the
+ * load method respectively. These methods are both asynchronous (since the
+ * underlying data storage may also be) and return promises. As a result you
+ * should use the `await` keyword to call them in a way that guarantees
+ * subsequent execution order.
+ *
+ * When you don't want to deal with explicit persistence operations, a Persister
+ * object also provides automatic saving and loading. Automatic saving listens
+ * for changes to the Store and persists the data immediately. Automatic loading
+ * listens (or polls) for changes to the persisted data and reflects those
+ * changes in the Store.
+ *
+ * You can start automatic saving or loading with the startAutoSave method and
+ * startAutoLoad method. Both are asynchronous since they will do an immediate
+ * save and load before starting to listen for subsequent changes. You can stop
+ * the behavior with the stopAutoSave method and stopAutoLoad method (which are
+ * synchronous).
+ *
+ * You may often want to have both automatic saving and loading of a Store so
+ * that changes are constantly synchronized (allowing basic state preservation
+ * between browser tabs, for example). The framework has some basic provisions
+ * to prevent race conditions - for example it will not attempt to save data if
+ * it is currently loading it and vice-versa.
+ *
+ * Be aware, however, that the default implementations do not provide complex
+ * synchronization heuristics and you should comprehensively test your
+ * persistence strategy to understand the opportunity for data loss (in the case
+ * of trying to save data to a server under poor network conditions, for
+ * example).
+ *
+ * @example
+ * This example creates a Store, persists it to the browser's session storage as
+ * a JSON string, changes the persisted data, updates the Store from it, and
+ * finally destroys the Persister again.
+ *
+ * ```js
+ * const store = createStore().setTables({pets: {fido: {species: 'dog'}}});
+ * const persister = createSessionPersister(store, 'pets');
+ *
+ * await persister.save();
+ * console.log(sessionStorage.getItem('pets'));
+ * // -> '{"pets":{"fido":{"species":"dog"}}}'
+ *
+ * sessionStorage.setItem('pets', '{"pets":{"toto":{"species":"dog"}}}');
+ * await persister.load();
+ * console.log(store.getTables());
+ * // -> {pets: {toto: {species: 'dog'}}}
+ *
+ * persister.destroy();
+ * sessionStorage.clear();
+ * ```
+ * @example
+ * This example creates a Store, and automatically saves and loads it to the
+ * browser's session storage as a JSON string. Changes to the Store data, or the
+ * persisted data (implicitly firing a StorageEvent), are reflected accordingly.
+ *
+ * ```js
+ * const store = createStore();
+ * const persister = createSessionPersister(store, 'pets');
+ *
+ * await persister.startAutoLoad({pets: {fido: {species: 'dog'}}});
+ * await persister.startAutoSave();
+ *
+ * store.setTables({pets: {felix: {species: 'cat'}}});
+ * // ...
+ * console.log(sessionStorage.getItem('pets'));
+ * // -> '{"pets":{"felix":{"species":"cat"}}}'
+ *
+ * // In another browser tab:
+ * sessionStorage.setItem('pets', '{"pets":{"toto":{"species":"dog"}}}');
+ * // -> StorageEvent('storage', {storageArea: sessionStorage, key: 'pets'})
+ *
+ * // ...
+ * console.log(store.getTables());

+ * @param store The Store to persist.
+ * @param getPersisted An asynchronous function which will fetch JSON from the
+ * persistence layer (or `null` or `undefined` if not present).
+ * @param setPersisted An asynchronous function which will send JSON to the
+ * persistence layer.
+ * @param startListeningToPersisted A function that will register a `didChange`
+ * listener on underlying changes to the persistence layer.
+ * @param stopListeningToPersisted A function that will unregister the listener
+ * from the underlying changes to the persistence layer.
+ * @returns A reference to the new Persister object.
+ * @example
+ * This example creates a Persister object and persists the Store to a local
+ * string called `storeJson` and would automatically load by polling for changes
+ * every second.
+ *
+ * ```js
+ * const store = createStore().setTables({pets: {fido: {species: 'dog'}}});
+ * let storeJson;
+ * let interval;
+ *
+ * const persister = createCustomPersister(
+ *   store,
+ *   async () => storeJson,
+ *   async (json) => (storeJson = json),
+ *   (didChange) => (interval = setInterval(didChange, 1000)),
+ *   () => clearInterval(interval),
+ * );
+ *
+ * await persister.save();
+ * console.log(storeJson);
+ * // -> '{"pets":{"fido":{"species":"dog"}}}'
+ *
+ * storeJson = '{"pets":{"fido":{"species":"dog","color":"brown"}}}';
+ * await persister.load();
+ *
+ * console.log(store.getTables());
+ * // -> {pets: {fido: {species: 'dog', color: 'brown'}}}
+ *
+ * persister.destroy();
+ * ```
