NAME

Mojo::Redis - Asynchronous Redis client for Mojolicious.

DESCRIPTION

Mojo::Redis is an asynchronous Redis client for the Mojolicious framework.

Currently we support these Redis commands in addition to the "METHODS" described in this module.

SYNOPSIS

Standalone

  use Mojo::Redis;

  my $redis = Mojo::Redis->new(server => '127.0.0.1:6379');

  # Execute some commands
  $redis->ping(
    sub {
      my ($redis, $res) = @_;
      if (defined $res) {
        print "Got result: ", $res, "\n";
      }
    }
  );

  # Work with keys
  # Ommitting the callback still makes it non-blocking and "error" events
  # will be called if something terrible goes wrong.
  $redis->set(key => 'value');

  $redis->get(
    key => sub {
      my ($redis, $res) = @_;
      print "Value of 'key' is $res\n";
    }
  );

  # Cleanup connection
  $redis->quit(sub { shift->ioloop->stop });

  # Start IOLoop (in case it is not started yet)
  $redis->ioloop->start;

Mojolicious::Lite example

  use Mojolicious::Lite;
  use Mojo::Redis;

  get '/user' => sub {
    my $self = shift->render_later;
    my $uid = $self->session('uid');
    my $redis = Mojo::Redis->new;

    Mojo::IOLoop->delay(
      sub {
        my ($delay) = @_;
        $redis->hgetall("user:$uid", $delay->begin);
      },
      sub {
        my ($delay, $user) = @_;
        $self->render(json=>$user);
      },
    );
  };

Websocket example

  websocket '/messages' => sub {
    my $self = shift;
    my $tx = $self->tx;
    my $redis = Mojo::Redis->new;

    # messages from redis
    $redis->on(message => 'pub:sub:channel', sub {
      my ($redis, $err, $message, $channel) = @_; # $channel == "pub:sub:channel"
      $tx->send($message || $err);
    });

    # message from websocket
    $self->on(message => sub {
      my ($self, $message) = @_;
      $redis->publish('pub:sub:channel' => $message);
    });

    $self->stash(redis => $redis);

    # need to clean up after websocket close
    $self->on(finish => sub {
      delete $self->stash->{redis};
      undef $tx;
    });
  };

  app->start;

EVENTS

blpop

  $cb = $redis->on(blpop => @list_names => sub {
    my($redis, $err, $data, $list_name) = @_;
    warn "[REDIS BLPOP] Got ($data) from $list_name\n";
  });

This is a special event which allow you to do recurring "blpop" without blocking the current Mojo::Redis object. Recurring means that once the callback has handled the data, it will issue a new BLPOP.

One of the commands below is required to stop the BLPOP loop:

  $redis->on(message => @channels);
  $redis->on(message => @channels => $cb);

brpop

See "blpop".

error

  $redis->on(error => sub {
    my($redis, $error) = @_;
    warn "[REDIS ERROR] $error\n";
  });

Emitted if error occurred. Called before commands callbacks.

close

  $redis->on(close => sub {
    my($redis) = @_;
    warn "[REDIS DISCONNECT]\n";
  });

Emitted when the connection to the server gets closed.

message

  $redis->on(message => @channels => sub {
    my($redis, $err, $message, $channel) = @_;
    warn "[REDIS PUBSUB] Got ($message) from $channel\n";
  });

This is a special event which allow you to "subscribe" to messages directly in the current Mojo::Redis object instead of using a new Mojo::Redis::Subscription object.

To unsubscribe you need to do one of these:

  $redis->on(message => @channels);
  $redis->on(message => @channels => $cb);

ATTRIBUTES

Mojo::Redis implements the following attributes.

connected

  $bool = $self->connected;

Returns true if we are indeed connected to the redis server.

encoding

  $encoding = $redis->encoding;
  $redis    = $redis->encoding('UTF-8');

Encoding used for stored data, defaults to UTF-8.

ioloop

  $ioloop = $redis->ioloop;
  $redis  = $redis->ioloop(Mojo::IOLoop->new);

Loop object to use for io operations, by default a Mojo::IOLoop singleton object will be used.

protocol

Holds a object of "protocol_redis". This attribute should be considered internal.

protocol_redis

  use Protocol::Redis::XS;
  $redis->protocol_redis("Protocol::Redis::XS");

Protocol::Redis implementation' constructor for parsing. By default Protocol::Redis will be used. Parser library must support APIv1.

Using Protocol::Redis::XS instead of default choice can speedup parsing.

server

  $server = $redis->server;
  $redis  = $redis->server('127.0.0.1:6379');
  $redis  = $redis->server('redis://anything:PASSWORD@127.0.0.1:6379/DB_INDEX');

Redis server connection string, defaults to "127.0.0.1:6379". The latter can be used if you want Mojo::Redis to automatically run "auth" with PASSWORD and/or "select" with DB_INDEX on connect. Both AUTH and DB_INDEX are optional.

timeout

  $seconds = $redis->timeout;
  $redis   = $redis->timeout(100);

Maximum amount of time in seconds a connection can be inactive before being dropped, defaults to 0 - meaning no timeout.

METHODS

connect

  $redis = $redis->connect;

Connect to Redis server.

disconnect

  $redis = $self->disconnect;

Used to disconnect from the server. This method is automatically called when this object goes out of scope.

execute

  $redis = $redis->execute("ping" => sub {
             my ($redis, $result) = @_;
             # Process $result
           });

  $redis->execute(lrange => "test", 0, -1 => sub {...});
  $redis->execute(set => test => "test_ok");

  $redis->execute(
    [lrange => "test", 0, -1],
    [get => "test"],
    [hmset => foo => { one => 1, two => 2 }],
    sub {
      my($redis, $lrange, $get, $hmset) = @_;
      # ...
    },
  );

Execute specified command on Redis server. If error occurred during request $result will be set to undef, error string can be obtained with the "error" event.

on

Same as "on" in Mojo::EventEmitter, except it allows special events such as "blpop", "brpop" and "message".

once

Same as "once" in Mojo::EventEmitter, except it allows special events such as "blpop", "brpop" and "message".

psubscribe

Subscribes to channels matching the given patterns.

  # Subscribes to foo, foobar, foo.whaz, etc.
  my $psub = $redis->psubscribe('foo*');
  $psub->on(message => sub {
    my ($self, $msg, $channel, $pattern) = @_; # 'hi!', 'foo.roo', 'foo*'
  });

  $redis->publish('foo.roo' => 'hi!');

"psubscribe" has the same interface options and capabilities as "subscribe".

subscribe

It's possible to subscribe in two ways:

  $redis = $redis->subscribe('foo','bar' => sub {
             my ($redis, $data) = @_;
           });

The above code will overtake the current connection (if any) and put this object into a pure subscribe mode.

  my $sub = $redis->subscribe('foo','bar');
  $sub->on(data => sub {
    my ($sub, $data) = @_;
  });

Opens up a new connection that subscribes to the given pubsub channels. Returns an instance of Mojo::Redis::Subscription. The existing $redis object can still be used to "get" data as expected.

unsubscribe

The opposite as "on". See also "unsubscribe" in Mojo::EventEmitter.
