NAME Cache::KyotoTycoon - KyotoTycoon client library SYNOPSIS use Cache::KyotoTycoon; my $kt = Cache::KyotoTycoon->new(host => '127.0.0.1', port => 1978); $kt->set('foo' => bar'); $kt->get('foo'); # => 'bar' DESCRIPTION KyotoTycoon.pm is KyotoTycoon client library for Perl5. THIS MODULE IS IN ITS BETA QUALITY. THE API MAY CHANGE IN THE FUTURE. ERROR HANDLING POLICY This module throws exception if got Server Error. CONSTRUCTOR OPTIONS timeout Timeout value for each request in seconds. *Default*: 1 second host Host name of server machine. *Default*: '127.0.0.1' port Port number of server process. *Default*: 1978 db DB name or id. *Default*: 0 METHODS $kt->db() Getter/Setter of DB name/id. my $cursor: Cache::KyotoTycoon::Cursor = $kt->make_cursor($cursor_number: Int); Create new cursor object. This method returns instance of Cache::KyotoTycoon::Cursor. my $res = $kt->echo($args) The server returns $args. This method is useful for testing server. $args is hashref. *Return*: the copy of $args. $kt->report() Get server report. *Return*: server status information in hashref. my $output = $kt->play_script($name[, \%input]); Call a procedure of the script language extension. *$name*: the name of the procedure to call. *\%input*: (optional): arbitrary records. *Return*: response of the script in hashref. my $info = $kt->status() Get database status information. *Return*: database status information in hashref. $kt->clear() Remove all elements for the storage. *Return*: Not a useful value. $kt->synchronize($hard:Bool, $command); Synchronize database with file system. *$hard*: call fsync() or not. *$command*: call $command in synchronization state. *Return*: 1 if succeeded, 0 if $command returns false. $kt->set($key, $value, $xt); Store *$value* to *$key*. *$xt*: expiration time. If $xt>0, expiration time in seconds from now. If $xt<0, the epoch time. It is never remove if missing $xt. *Return*: not a useful value. my $ret = $kt->add($key, $value, $xt); Store record. This method is not store if the *$key* is already in the database. *$xt*: expiration time. If $xt>0, expiration time in seconds from now. If $xt<0, the epoch time. It is never remove if missing $xt. *Return*: 1 if succeeded. 0 if $key is already in the db. my $ret = $kt->replace($key, $value, $xt); Store the record, ignore if the record is not exists in the database. *$xt*: expiration time. If $xt>0, expiration time in seconds from now. If $xt<0, the epoch time. It is never remove if missing $xt. *Return*: 1 if succeeded. 0 if $key is not exists in the database. my $ret = $kt->append($key, $value, $xt); Store the record, append the $value to existent record if already exists entry. *$xt*: expiration time. If $xt>0, expiration time in seconds from now. If $xt<0, the epoch time. It is never remove if missing $xt. *Return*: not useful value. my $ret = $kt->increment($key, $num, $xt); *$num*: incremental *Return*: value after increment. my $ret = $kt->increment_double($key, $num, $xt); *$num*: incremental *Return*: value after increment. my $ret = $kt->cas($key, $oval, $nval, $xt); compare and swap. *$oval*: old value *$nval*: new value *Return*: 1 if succeeded, 0 if failed. $kt->remove($key); Remove *$key* from database. *Return* 1 if removed, 0 if record does not exists. my $val = $kt->get($key); Get *$key* from database. *Return*: the value from database in scalar context. ($value, $xt) in list context. *undef* or empty list if not exists in database. $kt->set_bulk(\%values); Store multiple values in one time. *Return*: not useful value. $kt->remove_bulk(\@keys); Remove multiple keys in one time. *Return*: not useful value. my $hashref = $kt->get_bulk(\@keys); Get multiple values in one time. *Return*: records in hashref. $kt->vacuum([$step]); Scan the database and eliminate regions of expired records. *input*: step: (optional): the number of steps. If it is omitted or not more than 0, the whole region is scanned. *Return*: not useful.
