title: Sharing data between parts
|
|
for: developers
|
|
about: Shows how you use the pattern store to share data between parts
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, you'll want to access data from one part into another part.
|
|
For example, you may store the length of the armhole in your front and back parts,
|
|
and then read that value when drafting the sleeve so you can verify the sleeve fits the armhole.
|
|
|
|
For this, you should use the [Store](/reference/api/store/), which is available via
|
|
the [shorthand](/howtos/code/shorthand/) call:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
export default function(part) {
|
|
let { store } = part.shorthand();
|
|
store.set('hello', 'world');
|
|
|
|
return part();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
export default function(part) {
|
|
let { store } = part.shorthand();
|
|
store.get('hello'); // Returns 'world'
|
|
|
|
return part();
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In a case like this, the order in which parts are drafted becomes important, so you
|
|
should reflect that in the [pattern configuration](/reference/config/).
