Description
The context
operator manages context instances.
The
create
command creates a new context with a unique name.The
delete
command destroys a given context.The
update
command adds new data to a given context.The
reset
command clears the state of a given context, as if it had just been created.The
save
command outputs the state of the context, serialized into bytes. The result can be processed further in a pipeline, e.g. as an input for thesave
operator, or to initialize another context withcontext load
.The
load

, and initializes the context with that data.The

command dumps a specific context's user-provided data, usually the context's content.

The name of the context to create, update, or delete.
