Overview

Bucket variables are a way to store persistent data. They are an alternative to standard saved vars.

While all standard saved vars are loaded alongside the plot itself, bucket variables can be loaded and unloaded dynamically.

This allows a larger amount of overall data storage, as well as cross-plot access to saved data.

The hierarchy of bucket variables:

  • Namespace: An overarching variable space which can be accessed by one or more plots.
  • Bucket: A collection of bucket variables which are loaded and unloaded together.
  • Bucket Variable: An individual variable, consisting of a name and a value.
