How do you add data as a field store?

In the API, which has taken me a few days to get my head around, all I
see is the ability to add values and add data. As far as I can tell add
data only takes one argument which is the data.

Yes I could do some regular expression work when I get data but with
defining my constants in an include file which I use on indexing and
searching I have usable names to get/set values.
