question: can I use DHT for generic LWW record store?

[pgte]

I want to be able to save random key->value entries in the DHT.
I'm ok with not having any consistency guarantees (writes to the same key not being linearisable).
Is there any way I can use the current DHT implementation for this?

[pgte]

The main reason I'm asking this is that apparently I can save a record (at least ipfs.dht.put(k, v) returns), but when I do a ipfs.dht.get(k) with the same key, I get:

Uncaught Error: Record key does not have a selector function

(where the key is a random string with no "/" characters)

@diasdavid I can't speak to this - are you able to shed some light?

If you still need an answer to this @pgte I think @vasco-santos is working on this so might be able to help.
