Store

Purpose

Append an event for a specific context.

Form

STORE <event_type:WORD> FOR <context_id:WORD or STRING> PAYLOAD {"key":"value", ...}

Constraints

• <context_id> can be a WORD (example: user-1) or a quoted STRING.
• PAYLOAD must be a flat JSON object (no nested objects).
• PAYLOAD must follow schema defined using DEFINE command.

Examples

STORE order_created FOR customer-1 PAYLOAD {"order_id":123,"status":"confirmed"}

STORE review FOR "user:ext:42" PAYLOAD {"rating":5,"verified":true}

STORE login FOR user-7 PAYLOAD {"device":"android"}

Behavior

• Validates payload against the schema of the event type.
• Rejects missing or extra fields and type mismatches.
• Durability-first: once acknowledged, the event will survive crashes.

Errors

• <event_type> cannot be empty
• <context_id> cannot be empty
• Schema validation errors (see DEFINE)
• Overload/backpressure (rare): Shard is busy, try again later
