share_dreamcode.js
// add a new share
share = new Share()
// grant / revoke access
share.grantReadAccess()
share.grantWriteAccess()
share.revokeReadAccess()
share.revokeWriteAccess()
share.grantReadAccess('[email protected]')
share.revomeWriteAccess(['[email protected]', '[email protected]'])
// add all todo objects to the share
store.findAll('todo').then(share.add)
// remove a specific todo from the share
store.find('todo', '123').then(share.remove)
// remove objects from all shares
store.findAll('todo').then(share.remove)
// remove share
share.destroy()
// open a share and load all its objects
share = new Share('shareIdHere')
share.findAll().done( render )
// subscribe: sync changes between local store and remote share
share.subscribe()
share.unsubscribe()
