/**
 * Abstract persistence component that stores data in flat files
 * and caches them in memory.
 *
 * This is the most basic persistence component that is only
 * able to store data items of any type. Specific CRUD operations
 * over the data items must be implemented in child classes by
 * accessing this._items property and calling [[save]] method.
 *
 * @see [[MemoryPersistence]]
 * @see [[JsonFilePersister]]
 *
 * ### Configuration parameters ###
 *
 * - path:                path to the file where data is stored
 *
 * ### References ###
 *
 * - <code>\*:logger:\*:\*:1.0</code>   (optional) [[https://pip-services3-node.github.io/pip-services3-components-node/interfaces/log.ilogger.html ILogger]] components to pass log messages
 *
 * ### Example ###
 *
 *     class MyJsonFilePersistence extends FilePersistence<MyData> {
 *         public constructor(path?: string) {
 *             super(new JsonPersister(path));
 *         }
 *
 *         public getByName(correlationId: string, name: string, callback: (err, item) => void): void {
 *             let item = _.find(this._items, (d) => d.name == name);
 *             callback(null, item);
 *         });
 *
 *         public set(correlatonId: string, item: MyData, callback: (err) => void): void {
 *             this._items = _.filter(this._items, (d) => d.name != name);
 *             this._items.push(item);
 *             this.save(correlationId, callback);
 *         }
 *
 *     }
