SYNOPSIS

  use AnyEvent;
  use AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis;

  my $cv = AnyEvent->condvar();

  my $redis = AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis->new(
    host => 'localhost',
    port => '6379',
    password => 'your_password',
    encoding => 'utf8',

    on_connect => sub {
      print "Connected\n";
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  );

  # Set value
  $redis->set( 'bar', 'Some string', {
    on_done => sub {
      my $data = shift;
      print "$data\n";
      $cv->send();
    },

    on_error => sub {

DESCRIPTION

AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis is a non-blocking Redis client with with reconnection feature. It supports subscriptions, transactions, has simple API and it faster than AnyEvent::Redis.

Requires Redis 1.2 or higher and any supported event loop.

CONSTRUCTOR

  my $redis = AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis->new(
    host => 'localhost',
    port => '6379',
    password => 'your_password',
    connection_timeout => 5,
    reconnect => 1,
    encoding => 'utf8',

    on_connect => sub {
      print "Connected\n";
    },

    on_disconnect => sub {
      print "Disconnected\n";
    },

    on_connect_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  );

host

Server hostname (default: 127.0.0.1)

port

Server port (default: 6379)

password

Authentication password. If it specified, AUTH command will be executed automaticaly.

connection_timeout

Connection timeout. If after this timeout client could not connect to the server, callback on_error is called.

reconnect

If this parameter is TRUE (by default), client in case of lost connection will attempt to reconnect to server, when executing next command. Client will attempt to reconnect only once and if it fails, call on_error callback. If you need several attempts of reconnection, just retry command from on_error callback as many times, as you need. This feature made client more responsive.

TRUE by default.

encoding

Used to decode and encode strings during read and write operations.

on_connect

This callback will be called, when connection will be established.

on_disconnect

This callback will be called, when client will be disconnected.

on_connect_error

Since version 0.807100.

This callback is called, when the connection could not be established. If this collback isn't specified, then on_error callback is called.

on_error

This callback is called when some error occurred, such as not being able to resolve the hostname, failure to connect, or a read error.

COMMAND EXECUTION

<command>( [ @cmd_args[, \%params ] ] )

  # Increment
  $redis->incr( 'foo', {
    on_done => sub {
      my $data = shift;
      print "$data\n";
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  } );

  # Set value
  $redis->set( 'bar', 'Some string' );

  # Get value
  $redis->get( 'bar', {
    on_done => sub {
      my $data = shift;
      print "$data\n";
    },
  } );

  # Push values
  for ( my $i = 1; $i <= 3; $i++ ) {
    $redis->rpush( 'list', "element_$i", {
      on_done => sub {
        my $data = shift;
        print "$data\n";
      },
    } );
  }

  # Get list of values
  $redis->lrange( 'list', 0, -1, {
    on_done => sub {
      my $data = shift;
      foreach my $val ( @{ $data } ) {
        print "$val\n";
      }
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  } );

SUBSCRIPTIONS

subscribe( @channels[, \%params ] )

Subscribe to channel by name

  $redis->subscribe( qw( ch_foo ch_bar ), {
    on_done =>  sub {
      my $ch_name = shift;
      my $subs_num = shift;

      print "Subscribed: $ch_name. Active: $subs_num\n";
    },

    on_message => sub {
      my $ch_name = shift;
      my $msg = shift;

      print "$ch_name: $msg\n";
    },
  } );

psubscribe( @patterns[, \%params ] )

Subscribe to group of channels by pattern

  $redis->psubscribe( qw( info_* err_* ), {
    on_done =>  sub {
      my $ch_pattern = shift;
      my $subs_num = shift;

      print "Subscribed: $ch_pattern. Active: $subs_num\n";
    },

    on_message => sub {
      my $ch_name = shift;
      my $msg = shift;
      my $ch_pattern = shift;

      print "$ch_name ($ch_pattern): $msg\n";
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  } );

unsubscribe( @channels[, \%params ] )

Unsubscribe from channel by name

  $redis->unsubscribe( qw( ch_foo ch_bar ), {
    on_done => sub {
      my $ch_name = shift;
      my $subs_num = shift;

      print "Unsubscribed: $ch_name. Active: $subs_num\n";
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  } );

punsubscribe( @patterns[, \%params ] )

Unsubscribe from group of channels by pattern

  $redis->punsubscribe( qw( info_* err_* ), {
    on_done => sub {
      my $ch_pattern = shift;
      my $subs_num = shift;

      print "Unsubscribed: $ch_pattern. Active: $subs_num\n";
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err = shift;
      warn "$err\n";
    },
  } );

CONNECTION VIA UNIX-SOCKET

Redis 2.2 and higher support connection via UNIX domain socket. To connect via a UNIX-socket in the parameter host you must specify unix/, and in the parameter port you must specify the path to the socket.

  my $redis = AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis->new(
    host => 'unix/',
    port => '/tmp/redis.sock',
  );

DISCONNECTION FROM SERVER

When the connection to the server is no longer needed you can close it in three ways: send QUIT command, call method disconnect() (since version 0.806000), or you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis object (since version 1.000).

  $redis->quit(
    on_done => sub {
      # Do something
    }
  } );

  $redis->disconnect();

  undef( $redis );
