lightning-datastore -- Command for storing (plugin) data
========================================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
**datastore** *key* [*string*|*hex*]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **datastore** RPC command allows plugins to store data in the
c-lightning database, for later retrieval.
There can only be one entry for each *key*, so prefixing with the
plugin name (e.g. `summary.`) is recommended.
RETURN VALUE
------------
[comment]: # (GENERATE-FROM-SCHEMA-START)
On success, an object is returned, containing:
- **key** (string): The key which has been added to the datastore
- **hex** (hex): The hex data which has been added to the datastore
- **string** (string, optional): The data as a string, if it's valid utf-8
[comment]: # (GENERATE-FROM-SCHEMA-END)
The main cause of failure is an already-existing entry.
The following error codes may occur:
- -32602: invalid parameters, including already-existing key.
