DESCRIPTION

AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis is a non-blocking Redis client 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.

Sorry for my clumsy English. I work on it.

CONSTRUCTOR

new()

  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 to Redis server\n";
    },

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

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

    on_error => sub {
      my $err_msg = shift;
      my $err_code = shift;
      warn "$err_msg. Error code: $err_code\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 (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, calls 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.

encoding

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

on_connect => $cb->()

Callback on_connect is called, when connection is established.

on_disconnect => $cb->()

Callback on_disconnect is called, when connection is closed.

on_connect_error => $cb->( $err_msg )

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

on_error => $cb->( $err_msg, $err_code )

Callback on_error is called, when any error occurred.

COMMAND EXECUTION

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

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

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

  # 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_msg = shift;
      my $err_code = shift;
      warn "$err_msg. Error code: $err_code\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 have to specify unix/, and in the parameter port you have to specify the path to the socket.

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

ERROR CODES

Error codes were introduced in version of module 1.100. They can be used for programmatic handling of errors.

  1  - E_CANT_CONN
  2  - E_LOADING_DATASET
  3  - E_IO
  4  - E_CONN_CLOSED_BY_REMOTE_HOST
  5  - E_CONN_CLOSED_BY_CLIENT
  6  - E_NO_CONN
  7  - E_INVALID_PASS
  8  - E_AUTH_REQUIRED
  9  - E_COMMAND_EXEC
  10 - E_CLIENT
E_CANT_CONN

Can't connect to server.

E_LOADING_DATASET

Redis is loading the dataset in memory.

E_IO

Input/Output operation error. Connection closed.

E_CONN_CLOSED_BY_REMOTE_HOST

Connection closed by remote host.

E_CONN_CLOSED_BY_CLIENT

Connection closed by client.

E_NO_CONN

No connection to the server. Occurs if connection was closed by any reason and parameter reconnect set to FALSE

E_INVALID_PASS

Invalid password.

E_AUTH_REQUIRED

Operation not permitted. Authentication required.

E_COMMAND_EXEC

Command execution error.

E_CLIENT

Client error.

To use constants of error codes you have to import them.

  use AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis qw( :err_codes );

DISCONNECTION

When the connection to the server is no longer needed you can close it in three ways: call method disconnect(), send QUIT command or you can just "forget" any references to an AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis object, but in this case client object destroying silently without calling any callbacks including on_disconnect callback to avoid unexpected behavior.

disconnect()

Method for synchronous disconnection.

  $redis->disconnect();

quit( \%params )

Asynchronous disconnection using the Redis command QUIT.

  $redis->quit( {
    on_done => sub {
      $cv->send();
    }
  } );
