Extra persister events (start + finish)

segments-tobias commented 5 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There's currently no way to let users know when their data is done being persisted when auto-saving.
We currently cannot get a precise timestamp of the last save.

Describe the solution you'd like As suggested by @rob-gordon on Discord, it'd be nice to be able to subscribe to persister events, such as startAutoSave, finishedAutoSave, and potentially the same for auto-loading.

Describe alternatives you've considered For the timestamp problem, I've added a listener on the checkpoints, which is granular enough for my use case.

OK I like this. In the middle of a few other things but let's see...

OK, this API is going to land soon:

There will also be hooks and support so this state can be tracked in a UI. Hoping this works for you!

OK, this is shipped in 5.3.0-beta.3. Take a look at the new methods, listeners and hooks, and see if it does what you need!
