## new Enmap(iterable, \[options])

Initializes a new Enmap, with options.

| Param                   | Type                   | Default | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------- | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| iterable                | `iterable` \| `string` |         | If iterable data, only valid in non-persistent enmaps. If this parameter is a string, it is assumed to be the enmap's name, which is a shorthand for adding a name in the options and making the enmap persistent.                                                                                                                                                                                  |
| \[options]              | `Object`               |         | Additional options for the enmap. See <https://enmap.evie.codes/usage#enmap-options> for details.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| \[options.name]         | `string`               |         | The name of the enmap. Represents its table name in sqlite. If present, the enmap is persistent. If no name is given, the enmap is memory-only and is not saved in the database. As a shorthand, you may use a string for the name instead of the options (see example).                                                                                                                            |
| \[options.fetchAll]     | `boolean`              |         | Defaults to `true`. When enabled, will automatically fetch any key that's requested using get, or other retrieval methods. This is a "syncroneous" operation, which means it doesn't need any of this promise or callback use.                                                                                                                                                                      |
| \[options.dataDir]      | `string`               |         | Defaults to `./data`. Determines where the sqlite files will be stored. Can be relative (to your project root) or absolute on the disk. Windows users , remember to escape your backslashes!                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
| \[options.cloneLevel]   | `string`               |         | Defaults to deep. Determines how objects and arrays are treated when inserting and retrieving from the database. See <https://enmap.evie.codes/usage#enmap-options> for more details on this option.                                                                                                                                                                                                |
| \[options.ensureProps]  | `boolean`              |         | defaults to `true`. If enabled and the value in the enmap is an object, using ensure() will also ensure that every property present in the default object will be added to the value, if it's absent. See ensure API reference for more information.                                                                                                                                                |
| \[options.autoEnsure]   | `*`                    |         | default is disabled. When provided a value, essentially runs ensure(key, autoEnsure) automatically so you don't have to. This is especially useful on get(), but will also apply on set(), and any array and object methods that interact with the database.                                                                                                                                        |
| \[options.autoFetch]    | `boolean`              |         | defaults to `true`. When enabled, attempting to get() a key or do any operation on existing keys (such as array push, etc) will automatically fetch the current key value from the database. Keys that are automatically fetched remain in memory and are not cleared.                                                                                                                              |
| \[options.serializer]   | `function`             |         | Optional. If a function is provided, it will execute on the data when it is written to the database. This is generally used to convert the value into a format that can be saved in the database, such as converting a complete class instance to just its ID. This function may return the value to be saved, or a promise that resolves to that value (in other words, can be an async function). |
| \[options.deserializer] | `function`             |         | Optional. If a function is provided, it will execute on the data when it is read from the database. This is generally used to convert the value from a stored ID into a more complex object. This function may return a value, or a promise that resolves to that value (in other words, can be an async function).                                                                                 |
| \[options.wal]          | `boolean`              | `false` | Check out Write-Ahead Logging: <https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html>                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |

**Example**

```javascript
const Enmap = require("enmap");
// Non-persistent enmap:
const inMemory = new Enmap();

// Named, Persistent enmap with string option
const myEnmap = new Enmap("testing");

// Enmap that does not fetch everything, but does so on per-query basis:
const myEnmap = new Enmap({name: "testing", fetchAll: false});

// Enmap that automatically assigns a default object when getting or setting anything.
const autoEnmap = new Enmap({name: "settings", autoEnsure: { setting1: false, message: "default message"}})
```

## enmap.count ⇒ `integer`

Retrieves the number of rows in the database for this enmap, even if they aren't fetched.

**Kind**: instance property of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: `integer` - The number of rows in the database.<br>

## enmap.indexes ⇒ `array.<string>`

Retrieves all the indexes (keys) in the database for this enmap, even if they aren't fetched.

**Kind**: instance property of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: `array.<string>` - Array of all indexes (keys) in the enmap, cached or not.<br>

## enmap.autonum ⇒ `number`

Generates an automatic numerical key for inserting a new value. This is a "weak" method, it ensures the value isn't duplicated, but does not guarantee it's sequential (if a value is deleted, another can take its place). Useful for logging, actions, items, etc - anything that doesn't already have a unique ID.

**Kind**: instance property of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: `number` - The generated key number.\
**Example**

```javascript
enmap.set(enmap.autonum, "This is a new value");
```

## enmap.set(key, val, path) ⇒ [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)

Sets a value in Enmap.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: [`Enmap`](#enmap-map) - The enmap.

| Param | Type     | Default | Description                                                                                                                                       |
| ----- | -------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| key   | `string` |         | Required. The key of the element to add to The Enmap.                                                                                             |
| val   | `*`      |         | Required. The value of the element to add to The Enmap. If the Enmap is persistent this value MUST be stringifiable as JSON.                      |
| path  | `string` | `null`  | Optional. The path to the property to modify inside the value object or array. Can be a path with dot notation, such as "prop1.subprop2.subprop3" |

**Example**

```javascript
// Direct Value Examples
enmap.set('simplevalue', 'this is a string');
enmap.set('isEnmapGreat', true);
enmap.set('TheAnswer', 42);
enmap.set('IhazObjects', { color: 'black', action: 'paint', desire: true });
enmap.set('ArraysToo', [1, "two", "tree", "foor"])

// Settings Properties
enmap.set('IhazObjects', 'blue', 'color'); //modified previous object
enmap.set('ArraysToo', 'three', 2); // changes "tree" to "three" in array.
```

## enmap.update(key, valueOrFunction) ⇒ `*`

Update an existing object value in Enmap by merging new keys. **This only works on objects**, any other value will throw an error. Heavily inspired by setState from React's class components. This is very useful if you have many different values to update and don't want to have more than one .set(key, value, prop) lines.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: `*` - The updated, merged value.

| Param           | Type     | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| --------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| key             | `string` | The key of the object to update.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| valueOrFunction | `*`      | Either an object to merge with the existing value, or a function that provides the existing object and expects a new object as a return value. In the case of a straight value, the merge is recursive and will add any missing level. If using a function, it is your responsibility to merge the objects together correctly. |

**Example**

```javascript
// Define an object we're going to update
enmap.set("obj", { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 });

// Direct merge
enmap.update("obj", { d: 4, e: 5 });
// obj is now { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5 }

// Functional update
enmap.update("obj", (previous) => ({
  ...obj,
  f: 6,
  g: 7
}));
// this example takes heavy advantage of the spread operators.

console.log(myKeyValue);

const someSubValue = enmap.get("anObjectKey", "someprop.someOtherSubProp");
```

## enmap.observe(key, path) ⇒ `*`

Returns an observable object. Modifying this object or any of its properties/indexes/children will automatically save those changes into enmap. This only works on objects and arrays, not "basic" values like strings or integers.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: `*` - The value for this key.

| Param | Type     | Default | Description                                                  |
| ----- | -------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| key   | `*`      |         | The key to retrieve from the enmap.                          |
| path  | `string` | `null`  | Optional. The property to retrieve from the object or array. |

## enmap.fetchEverything() ⇒ [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)

Fetches every key from the persistent enmap and loads them into the current enmap value.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: [`Enmap`](#enmap-map) - The enmap containing all values.<br>

## enmap.fetch(keyOrKeys) ⇒ [`Enmap`](#enmap-map) | `*`

Force fetch one or more key values from the enmap. If the database has changed, that new value is used.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: [`Enmap`](#enmap-map) | `*` - The Enmap, including the new fetched values, or the value in case the function argument is a single key.

| Param     | Type                                               | Description                                                           |
| --------- | -------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| keyOrKeys | `string` \| `number` \| `Array.<(string\|number)>` | A single key or array of keys to force fetch from the enmap database. |

## enmap.evict(keyOrArrayOfKeys) ⇒ [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)

Removes a key or keys from the cache - useful when disabling autoFetch.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: [`Enmap`](#enmap-map) - The enmap minus the evicted keys.

| Param            | Type                                               | Description                                             |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| keyOrArrayOfKeys | `string` \| `number` \| `Array.<(string\|number)>` | A single key or array of keys to remove from the cache. |

## enmap.changed(cb)

Function called whenever data changes within Enmap after the initial load. Can be used to detect if another part of your code changed a value in enmap and react on it.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)

| Param | Type       | Description                                                                 |
| ----- | ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| cb    | `function` | A callback function that will be called whenever data changes in the enmap. |

**Example**

```javascript
enmap.changed((keyName, oldValue, newValue) => {
  console.log(`Value of ${keyName} has changed from: \n${oldValue}\nto\n${newValue}`);
});
```

## enmap.close() ⇒ `Promise.<*>`

Shuts down the database. WARNING: USING THIS MAKES THE ENMAP UNUSEABLE. You should only use this method if you are closing your entire application. This is useful if you need to copy the database somewhere else, or if you're somehow losing data on shutdown.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: `Promise.<*>` - The promise of the database closing operation.<br>

## enmap.push(key, val, path, allowDupes) ⇒ [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)

Push to an array value in Enmap.

**Kind**: instance method of [`Enmap`](#enmap-map)\
**Returns**: [`Enmap`](#enmap-map) - The enmap.

| Param      | Type      | Default | Description                                                                                                                                       |
| ---------- | --------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| key        | `string`  |         | Required. The key of the array element to push to in Enmap. This value MUST be a string or number.                                                |

| options | `Object`         | Options object to pass to each enmap, excluding the name..                      |

**Example**

```javascript
// Using local variables.
const Enmap = require('enmap');
const { settings, tags, blacklist } = Enmap.multi(['settings', 'tags', 'blacklist']);

// Attaching to an existing object (for instance some API's client)
const Enmap = require("enmap");
Object.assign(client, Enmap.multi(["settings", "tags", "blacklist"]));
```
