	storageName:string 
})

Write key-value pairs

await put(key:string,value:string)

The put() method returns a Promise that you should await on to verify a successful update which resolves with a boolean :

• true = Update successful
• false = Update failed

Read key-value pairs

await get(key:string)

The get() method returns a promise you can await on to get the value which resolves with:

• null = The key is not found
• data = Get the value successful
• false = Get the value failed

List keys

await list()

Use a list operation to view all the keys that live in a given storage, return a promise which resolves with an object:

• keys = Array of keys
• complete = True if operation complete
