puter.kv.list()

Returns an array of all keys in the user's key-value store for the current app. If the user has no keys, the array will be empty.

Syntax 

puter.kv.list()
puter.kv.list(pattern)
puter.kv.list(returnValues = false)
puter.kv.list(pattern, returnValues = false)

Parameters

pattern (String) (optional)

If set, only keys that match the given pattern will be returned. The pattern can contain the * wildcard character, which matches any number of characters. For example, abc* will match all keys that start with abc, such as abc, abc123, abc123xyz, etc. Default is *, which matches all keys.

returnValues (Boolean) (optional)

If set to true, the returned array will contain objects with both key and value properties. If set to false, the returned array will contain only the keys. Default is false.

Return value

A Promise that will resolve to an array of all keys (and values, if returnValues is set to true) the user's key-value store for the current app. If the user has no keys, the array will be empty.
