10        //              methods unimplemented.  For more information on the ,
11        //              please visit: http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/dojo/store.html
12        //              Every method and property is optional, and is only needed if the functionality
13        //              it provides is required.
14        //              Every method may return a promise for the specified return value if the
15        //              execution of the operation is asynchronous (except
16        //              for query() which already defines an async return value).

18        // idProperty: String
19        //              If the store has a single primary key, this indicates the property to use as the
20        //              identity property. The values of this property should be unique.

24        //              If the store can be queried locally (on the client side in JS), this defines
25        //              the query engine to use for querying the data store.
26        //              This takes a query and query options and returns a function that can execute
27        //              the provided query on a JavaScript array. The queryEngine may be replace to
28        //              provide more sophisticated querying capabilities. For example:
29        //              | var query = store.queryEngine({foo:"bar"}, {count:10});
30        //              | query(someArray) -> filtered array
31        //              The returned query function may have a "matches" property that can be
32        //              used to determine if an object matches the query. For example:
33        //              | query.matches({id:"some-object", foo:"bar"}) -> true
