# @push.rocks/smartcontext

A zero-dependency module for hierarchical async context management in Node.js, built on `AsyncLocalStorage`.

## Install

```bash
npm install @push.rocks/smartcontext
# or
pnpm install @push.rocks/smartcontext
```

## Usage

`@push.rocks/smartcontext` provides scoped, hierarchical key-value stores that follow async execution flow. Child scopes inherit parent data, can add or delete keys without affecting the parent, and automatically clean up when the scope exits.

This is useful for log enrichment, request-scoped metadata, transaction tracking, and any scenario where contextual data needs to flow through deeply nested async calls.

### Basic Setup

```typescript
import { AsyncContext } from '@push.rocks/smartcontext';

const ctx = new AsyncContext();

// Add data to the root store
ctx.store.add('userId', 'u_123');
console.log(ctx.store.get('userId')); // 'u_123'
```

### Scoped Execution with `runScoped`

`runScoped` creates an isolated child store for the duration of the callback. Inside the callback, `ctx.store` transparently points to the child store. The child inherits all parent data but any additions or deletions are local to the child.

```typescript
ctx.store.add('requestId', 'req_abc');

await ctx.runScoped(async () => {
  // Child store sees parent data
  console.log(ctx.store.get('requestId')); // 'req_abc'

  // Add child-only data
  ctx.store.add('spanId', 'span_001');
  console.log(ctx.store.get('spanId')); // 'span_001'
});

// After scope exits, child data is gone
console.log(ctx.store.get('spanId')); // undefined
// Parent data is untouched
console.log(ctx.store.get('requestId')); // 'req_abc'
```

### Deleting Keys in a Child Scope

Deleting a parent key inside a child scope only shadows it within that scope. The parent retains the original value.

```typescript
ctx.store.add('token', 'secret_value');

await ctx.runScoped(async () => {
  ctx.store.delete('token');
  console.log(ctx.store.get('token')); // undefined (shadowed)
});

console.log(ctx.store.get('token')); // 'secret_value' (parent unaffected)
```

### Parallel Scopes

Multiple concurrent `runScoped` calls each get their own isolated child store, preventing data collisions across async tasks.

```typescript
await Promise.all([
  ctx.runScoped(async () => {
    ctx.store.add('worker', 'A');
    // Only this scope sees worker=A
  }),
  ctx.runScoped(async () => {
    ctx.store.add('worker', 'B');
    // Only this scope sees worker=B
  }),
]);

console.log(ctx.store.get('worker')); // undefined
```

### Retrieving All Data

`store.getAll()` returns a merged view of the store hierarchy, with child values overriding parent values and deleted keys excluded.

```typescript
ctx.store.add('env', 'production');
ctx.store.add('region', 'eu-west-1');

await ctx.runScoped(async () => {
  ctx.store.add('traceId', 'tr_xyz');
  console.log(ctx.store.getAll());
  // { env: 'production', region: 'eu-west-1', traceId: 'tr_xyz' }
});
```

### API Reference

#### `AsyncStore`

| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| `add(key, value)` | Set a key-value pair |
| `get(key)` | Get a value (checks local store, then parent chain) |
