A lawnchair instance saves documents using the save method:
new Lawnchair(function() { this.save({me:'brian'}) })
A callback is, as always, your option:
var ppl = Lawnchair(function() { // traditional callback code this.save({key:'config', options:[1,2,3]}, function(obj){ console.log(obj) }) // terse callback style this.save({person:'joni'}, 'console.log(record)') })
If you pass an object with a key then that record is updated (if it is in the store already).
