Usage Examples

Basic Context Storage

// Create context store
store := NewContextStore(nodeID, localStorage, distributedStorage, 
    encryptedStorage, cacheManager, indexManager, backupManager, 
    eventNotifier, options)

// Store a context
err := store.StoreContext(ctx, contextNode, []string{"developer", "architect"})

// Retrieve a context
context, err := store.RetrieveContext(ctx, ucxlAddress, "developer")

// Search contexts
results, err := store.SearchContexts(ctx, &SearchQuery{
    Query: "authentication system",
    Tags:  []string{"security", "backend"},
    Limit: 10,
})

Batch Operations

// Batch store multiple contexts
batch := &BatchStoreRequest{
    Contexts: []*ContextStoreItem{
        {Context: context1, Roles: []string{"developer"}},
        {Context: context2, Roles: []string{"architect"}},
    },
    Roles: []string{"developer"}, // Default roles
    FailOnError: false,
}

result, err := store.BatchStore(ctx, batch)

Backup Management

// Create a backup
backupConfig := &BackupConfig{
    Name: "daily-backup",
    Destination: "/backups/contexts",
    IncludeIndexes: true,
    IncludeCache: false,
    Encryption: true,
    Retention: 30 * 24 * time.Hour,
}

backupInfo, err := backupManager.CreateBackup(ctx, backupConfig)

// Schedule automatic backups
schedule := &BackupSchedule{
    ID: "daily-schedule",
    Name: "Daily Backup",
    Cron: "0 2 * * *", // Daily at 2 AM
    BackupConfig: backupConfig,
