	<h3>INTRO</h3>
	<p>The STREAM module provides chain persistence, accumulation and traversal.</p>
        <blockquote>
          <ul><li><b><a href="#writer">writer/1</a></b> — creates writer cursor for chain.</li>
              <li><b><a href="#reader">reader/1</a></b> — creates reader cursor for chain.</li>

	<p>You can grab <a style="margin-bottom:30px;" href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/synrc/kvs/master/src/layers/kvs_stream.erl">kvs_stream</a>
	   and use it in your applications without importing <b>synrc/kvs</b> dependency,
	   as this module is self-containing.
	   The possible applications are: public and private feeds, FIFO queues,
	   unread messages, chat applications, blockchain etc.<br /><br /></p>

	<h3>WRITER</h3>

	<p>Writer cursor represents unique append list chain with some cached values.
	   E.g., elements <b>count</b>, <b>first</b> element of the chain, <b>cache</b> field for value of
	   a previous written message and <b>args</b> field for passing arguments in fixpoint style.</p>

	<figure><code> -record(writer,  { id    = [] :: term(),
                    count =  0 :: integer(),
                    cache = [] :: [] | tuple(),
                    args  = [] :: term(),
                    first = [] :: [] | tuple() } ).</code></figure>

	<p>For adding data to storage you need to create writer cursor,
	   set the <b>args</b> field with the record to be added:</p>

	<figure><code> > require KVS
 KVS
 > KVS.writer
 {:writer, [], 0, [], [], []}</code></figure>

	<h4 id="writer">writer(list()) -> #writer{}.</h4>
	<p>Creates writer cursor. After this you normally call <b>save</b> function for cursor persistence.
	   As a parameter provide cursor name as a list.</p>

	<figure><code> > w = :kvs.writer '/cursors/cur1'
 {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 0, [], [], []}</code></figure>

	<h4 id="save">save(#writer{}) -> #writer{}.</h4>
	<p>Flushes writer cursor to database.</p>

	<figure><code> > :kvs.save w
 {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 0, [], [], []}
 > :kvs.get :writer, '/cursors/cur1'
 {:ok, {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 0, [], [], []}}</code></figure>

	<h4 id="add">add(#writer{}) -> #writer{}.</h4>
	<p>Adds element to persistent chain declared by writer cursor.
	   Adding elements to chain affects <b>count</b> field.</p>

	<figure><code> > :lists.map fn _ ->
   {:ok,w} = :kvs.get(:writer,'/cursors/cur1')
   :kvs.save(:kvs.add(KVS.writer(w, args: {:"$msg", [], [], [], [], []})))
 end, :lists.seq(1, 5)
 [
  {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 1, {:"$msg", '1313544188019000'}, [], []},
  {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 2, {:"$msg", '1313544189127000'}, [], []},
  {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 3, {:"$msg", '1313544189869000'}, [], []},
  {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 4, {:"$msg", '1313544190519000'}, [], []},
  {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 5, {:"$msg", '1313544191134000'}, [], []}
 ]
 > :kvs.get :writer, '/cursors/cur1'
 {:ok,
  {:writer, '/cursors/cur1', 5, {:"$msg", '1314009332950000'}, [], []}}</code></figure>

	<h3>READER</h3>
	<p>Reader cursor represents a user reading pointer to the writer feed.
	   Field <b>#reader.feed</b> is linked to <b>#writer.id</b>.
	   The <b>pos</b> field represents current position in feed.
	   Field <b>dir</b> is used for changing <b>take</b> and <b>drop</b> directions.</p>
	<figure><figcaption>Reader Cursor</figcaption>
	<code>  -record(reader, { id    = [] :: integer(),
                    pos   =  0 :: [] | integer(),
                    cache = [] :: [] | integer(),
                    args  = [] :: term(),
                    feed  = [] :: term(),
                    dir   =  0 :: 0 | 1 } ).</code></figure>

	<h4 id="reader">reader(term()) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Creates reader cursor for a given writer id.</p>

	<h4 id="load_reader">load_reader(term()) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Loads reader cursor from database.</p>

	<h4 id="save">save(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Flushes reader cursor to database.</p>

	<h4 id="top">top(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Moves cursor to top of the list.</p>

	<h4 id="bot">bot(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Moves cursor to bottom of the list.</p>
    </section>
    <section>
	<h3>ITER</h3>
	<figure><figcaption>KVS Stream Iterator</figcaption>
	<code>  -record(iter,   { id    = [] :: [] | integer(),
                    next  = [] :: [] | integer(),
                    prev  = [] :: [] | integer() } ).</code></figure>

	<h4 id="next">next(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Moves cursor to next. Consume data down from top.
	   Return error if list is empty, otherwise next element or last.</p>

	<h4 id="prev">prev(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Moves cursor to prev. Consume data up from bottom.
	   Return error if list is empty, otherwise next element or last.</p>

	<h4 id="drop">drop(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Drops N elements starting from reader.</p>

	<h4 id="take">take(#reader{}) -> #reader{}.</h4>
	<p>Trying to consume N records from stream using its current value and direction.
	   Returns consumed data. Usually you seek to some position and then consume some data.</p>

	<h4 id="append">append(tuple(), list()) -> term().</h4>
	<p>Adds record to feed.</p>

	<h4 id="append">remove(tuple(), list()) -> term().</h4>
	<p>Removes record from feed.</p>

	<h4 id="cut">cut(list(), term()) -> #ok{} | #error{}.</h4>
	<p>Cuts the feed up to a given key.</p>
