# Stores



# Overview

Stores define where Peam writes the search index. The CLI currently supports `fileBased` stores.

## File-based store

Writes a JSON index file to disk. It matches the [file-based store](/docs/storage/file-based-store) behavior.

```bash
peam \
  --source fileBased --projectDir . --sourceDir dist \
  --store fileBased --indexPath .peam/index.json
```

**Options**

* `indexPath`: path to the index file relative to `baseDir` (default `.peam/index.json`).
* `baseDir`: base directory for the index file (defaults to `process.cwd()`).

## Multiple stores

Repeat `--store` to export to multiple destinations:

```bash
peam \
  --source fileBased --projectDir . --sourceDir dist \
  --store fileBased --indexPath .peam/index.json \
  --store fileBased --indexPath public/.peam/index.json
```
