DocumentService

DocumentService is a robust Luau library designed for managing data persistence in Roblox games using DataStores. It provides a schematized, type-safe approach to handling both session-locked player data and non-session-locked shared data, ensuring reliability and developer productivity. ## Key Features - **Fully Typed API** — Offers full intellisense and typechecking for data and API methods, including error handling. - **Rust-Inspired Error Handling** — Utilizes Result types for superior error management. - **Immutable Cache** — Prevents bugs caused by concurrent updates interfering with each other. - **Automatic Saves** — Handles auto-saves and BindToClose saves automatically. - **Migrations** — Supports data migrations, inspired by nezuo's Lapis. - **Data Validation** — Validates data with runtime and static typechecking support. - **Session Flexibility** — Documents can be session-locked or not, allowing multi-server editing. - **Signals & Hooks** — Provides signals to tap into when operations start and finish. - **Automatic Retries** — Implements retries with exponential backoff for robustness. - **JSON Storage Checks** — Ensures data can be stored in JSON to avoid silent errors. - **Dependency Injection** — Supports DataStore dependency injection for using any Mock DataStore. ## Philosophy DocumentService emphasizes strict typing, high code quality, and production-ready reliability, drawing inspiration from existing libraries while addressing their limitations to meet modern Roblox development needs.
