File System Persistence Adapter

The File System Persistence Adapter implements the ASK Core interface with the same name and provides a bridge between the FileSystem node.js library and the Alexa Persistence Attributes.

Install

When you creating your skill, just import fs-persistence-adapter into your package.json, or alternatively run:

    npm i fs-persistence-adapter

and import into your project using one of two options bellow:

    const { FileSystemPersistenceAdapter } = require('fs-persistence-adapter');

    ...Alexa.SkillBuilders.custom().withPersistenceAdapter(
        new FileSystemPersistenceAdapter('path/to/file') // to save all attributes of all users in a single file
        /* OR */
        new FileSystemPersistenceAdapter('path/') // to save attributes in files separated by user id
    )

NOTE: The path needs to already exists, only the files are created.
