DESCRIPTION

MODULE IS DEPRECATED. Use AnyEvent::RipeRedis instead. The interface of AnyEvent::RipeRedis has several differences from interface of AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis. For more information see documentation.

AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis is the flexible non-blocking Redis client with reconnect feature. The client supports subscriptions, transactions and connection via UNIX-socket.

Requires Redis 1.2 or higher, and any supported event loop.

CONSTRUCTOR

new( %params )

  my $redis = AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis->new(
    host                   => 'localhost',
    port                   => 6379,
    password               => 'yourpass',
    database               => 7,
    lazy                   => 1,
    connection_timeout     => 5,
    read_timeout           => 5,
    reconnect              => 1,
    min_reconnect_interval => 5,
    encoding               => 'utf8',

    on_connect => sub {
      # handling...
    },

    on_disconnect => sub {
      # handling...
    },

    on_connect_error => sub {
      my $err_msg = shift;

      # error handling...
    },

    on_error => sub {
      my $err_msg  = shift;
      my $err_code = shift;

      # error handling...
    },
  );
host => $host

Server hostname (default: 127.0.0.1)

port => $port

Server port (default: 6379)

password => $password

If the password is specified, the AUTH command is sent to the server after connection.

database => $index

Database index. If the index is specified, the client is switched to the specified database after connection. You can also switch to another database after connection by using SELECT command. The client remembers last selected database after reconnection.

The default database index is 0.

encoding => $encoding_name

Used for encode/decode strings at time of input/output operations.

Not set by default.

connection_timeout => $fractional_seconds

Specifies connection timeout. If the client could not connect to the server after specified timeout, the on_error or on_connect_error callback is called. In case when on_error callback is called, E_CANT_CONN error code is passed to callback in the second argument. The timeout specifies in seconds and can contain a fractional part.

  connection_timeout => 10.5,

By default the client use kernel's connection timeout.

read_timeout => $fractional_seconds

Specifies read timeout. If the client could not receive a reply from the server after specified timeout, the client close connection and call the on_error callback with the E_READ_TIMEDOUT error code. The timeout is specifies in seconds and can contain a fractional part.

  read_timeout => 3.5,

Not set by default.

lazy => $boolean

If enabled, the connection establishes at time when you will send the first command to the server. By default the connection establishes after calling of the new method.

Disabled by default.

reconnect => $boolean

If the connection to the Redis server was lost and the parameter reconnect is TRUE, the client try to restore the connection on a next command executuion unless min_reconnect_interval is specified. The client try to reconnect only once and if it fails, is called the on_error callback. If you need several attempts of the reconnection, just retry a command from the on_error callback as many times, as you need. This feature made the client more responsive.

Enabled by default.

min_reconnect_interval => $fractional_seconds

If the parameter is specified, the client will try to reconnect not often than after this interval.

  min_reconnect_interval => 5,

Not set by default.

handle_params => \%params

Specifies AnyEvent::Handle parameters.

  handle_params => {
    autocork => 1,
    linger   => 60,
  }
linger => $fractional_seconds

Parameter is DEPRECATED. Use handle_params parameter instead.

This option is in effect when, for example, code terminates connection by calling disconnect but there are ongoing operations. In this case destructor of underlying AnyEvent::Handle object will keep the write buffer in memory for long time (see default value) causing temporal 'memory leak'. See AnyEvent::Handle for more information.

By default is applied default setting of AnyEvent::Handle (i.e. 3600 seconds).

autocork => $boolean

Parameter is DEPRECATED. Use handle_params parameter instead.

When enabled, writes to socket will always be queued till the next event loop iteration. This is efficient when you execute many operations per iteration, but less efficient when you execute a single operation only per iteration (or when the write buffer often is full). It also increases operation latency. See AnyEvent::Handle for more information.

Disabled by default.

on_connect => $cb->()

The on_connect callback is called when the connection is successfully established.

Not set by default.

on_disconnect => $cb->()

The on_disconnect callback is called when the connection is closed by any reason.

Not set by default.

on_connect_error => $cb->( $err_msg )

The on_connect_error callback is called, when the connection could not be established. If this collback isn't specified, the common on_error callback is called with the E_CANT_CONN error code.

Not set by default.

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

The common on_error callback is called when ocurred some error, which was affected on whole client (e. g. connection error). Also this callback is called on other errors if neither on_error callback nor on_reply callback is specified in the command method. If common on_error callback is not specified, the client just print an error messages to STDERR.

COMMAND EXECUTION

<command>( [ @args ] [, $cb | \%cbs ] )

The full list of the Redis commands can be found here: http://redis.io/commands.

  $redis->incr( 'foo',
    sub {
      my $reply = shift;

      if (@_) {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        # error handling...

        return;
      }

      print "$reply\n";
    },
  );

  $redis->incr( 'foo',
    { on_reply => sub {
        my $reply = shift;

        if (@_) {
          my $err_msg  = shift;
          my $err_code = shift;

          # error handling...

          return;
        }

        print "$reply\n";
      },
    }
  );

  $redis->set( 'bar', 'string' );

  $redis->get( 'bar',
    { on_done => sub {
        my $reply = shift;

        print "$reply\n";
      },

      on_error => sub {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        # error handling...
      }
    }
  );

  $redis->lrange( 'list', 0, -1,
    { on_done => sub {
        my $reply = shift;

        foreach my $val ( @{$reply}  ) {
          print "$val\n";
        }
      },

      on_error => sub {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        # error handling...
      },
    }
  );
on_done => $cb->( [ $reply ] )

The on_done callback is called when the current operation was completed successfully.

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

The on_error callback is called when some error occurred.

on_reply => $cb->( [ $reply ] [, $err_msg, $err_code ] )

Since version 1.300 of the client you can specify single, on_reply callback, instead of two, on_done and on_error callbacks. The on_reply callback is called in both cases: when operation was completed successfully or when some error occurred. In first case to callback is passed only reply data. In second case to callback is passed three arguments: The undef value or reply data with error objects (see below), error message and error code.

TRANSACTIONS

The detailed information abount the Redis transactions can be found here: http://redis.io/topics/transactions.

multi( [ $cb | \%cbs ] )

Marks the start of a transaction block. Subsequent commands will be queued for atomic execution using EXEC.

exec( [ $cb | \%cbs ] )

Executes all previously queued commands in a transaction and restores the connection state to normal. When using WATCH, EXEC will execute commands only if the watched keys were not modified.

If after execution of EXEC command at least one operation fails, the on_error or on_reply callback is called and in addition to error message and error code to callback is passed reply data, which contain replies of successful operations and error objects for each failed operation. To on_error callback reply data is passed in third argument and to on_reply callback in first argument. Error object is an instance of class AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis::Error and has two methods: message() to get error message and code() to get error code.

  $redis->multi();
  $redis->set( 'foo', 'string' );
  $redis->incr( 'foo' ); # causes an error
  $redis->exec(
    sub {
      my $reply = shift;

      if (@_) {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        if ( defined $reply ) {
          foreach my $nested_reply ( @{$reply} ) {
            if ( ref($nested_reply) eq 'AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis::Error' ) {
              my $nested_err_msg  = $nested_reply->message();
              my $nested_err_code = $nested_reply->code();

              # error handling...
            }
          }

          return;
        }

        # error handling...

        return;
      }

      # reply handling...
    },
  );

  $redis->multi();
  $redis->set( 'foo', 'string' );
  $redis->incr( 'foo' ); # causes an error
  $redis->exec(
    { on_done => sub {
        my $reply = shift;

        # handling...
      },

      on_error => sub {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;
        my $reply    = shift;

        if ( defined $reply ) {
          foreach my $nested_reply ( @{$reply} ) {
            if ( ref($nested_reply) eq 'AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis::Error' ) {
              my $nested_err_msg  = $nested_reply->message();
              my $nested_err_code = $nested_reply->code();

              # error handling...
            }
          }
        }

        # error handling...
      },
    }
  );

discard( [ $cb | \%cbs ] )

Flushes all previously queued commands in a transaction and restores the connection state to normal.

If WATCH was used, DISCARD unwatches all keys.

watch( @keys [, $cb | \%cbs ] )

Marks the given keys to be watched for conditional execution of a transaction.

unwatch( [ $cb | \%cbs ] )

Forget about all watched keys.

SUBSCRIPTIONS

The detailed information about Redis Pub/Sub can be found here: http://redis.io/topics/pubsub

Once the client enters the subscribed state it is not supposed to issue any other commands, except for additional SUBSCRIBE, PSUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE, PUNSUBSCRIBE and QUIT commands.

If the connection was lost when the client has active subscriptions, the on_error or on_reply callback in appropriate (p)subscribe method is called.

subscribe( @channels, ( $cb | \%cbs ) )

  $redis->psubscribe( qw( foo_* bar_* ),
    { on_reply => sub {
        my $reply = shift;

        if (@_) {

      if (@_) {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        # error handling...

        return;

In first case on_reply callback is called on every specified pattern. Information about channel pattern and number of remaining subscriptions is passed to callback in first argument as an array reference.

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',
  );

LUA SCRIPTS EXECUTION

Redis 2.6 and higher support execution of Lua scripts on the server side. To execute a Lua script you can send one of the commands EVAL or EVALSHA, or use the special method eval_cached().

eval_cached( $script, $numkeys [, @keys ] [, @args ] [, $cb | \%cbs ] );

When you call the eval_cached() method, the client first generate a SHA1 hash for a Lua script and cache it in memory. Then the client optimistically send the EVALSHA command under the hood. If the E_NO_SCRIPT error will be returned, the client send the EVAL command.

If you call the eval_cached() method with the same Lua script, client don not generate a SHA1 hash for this script repeatedly, it gets a hash from the cache instead.

  $redis->eval_cached( 'return { KEYS[1], KEYS[2], ARGV[1], ARGV[2] }',
      2, 'key1', 'key2', 'first', 'second',
    sub {
      my $reply = shift;

      if (@_) {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        # error handling...

        return;
      }

      foreach my $val ( @{$reply}  ) {
        print "$val\n";
      }
    }
  );

Be care, passing a different Lua scripts to eval_cached() method every time cause memory leaks.

If Lua script returns multi-bulk reply with at least one error reply, the on_error or on_reply callback is called and in addition to error message and error code to callback is passed reply data, which contain successful replies and error objects for each error reply, as well as described for EXEC command.

  $redis->eval_cached( "return { 'foo', redis.error_reply( 'Error.' ) }", 0,
    sub {
      my $reply = shift;

      if ( @_ ) {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;

        if ( defined $reply ) {
          foreach my $nested_reply ( @{$reply} ) {
            if ( ref($nested_reply) eq 'AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis::Error' ) {
              my $nested_err_msg  = $nested_reply->message();
              my $nested_err_code = $nested_reply->code();

              # error handling...
            }
          }
        }

        # error handling...

        return;
      }

      # reply handling...
    }
  );

  $redis->eval_cached( "return { 'foo', redis.error_reply( 'Error.' ) }", 0,
    { on_done => sub {
         my $reply = shift;

         # handling...
      },

      on_error => sub {
        my $err_msg  = shift;
        my $err_code = shift;
        my $reply     = shift;

        if ( defined $reply ) {

SERVER INFORMATION AND STATISTICS

info( [ $section ] [, $cb | \%cbs ] )

Gets and parses information and statistics about the server. The result is passed to on_done or on_reply callback as a hash reference.

More information abount INFO command can be found here: http://redis.io/commands/info

ERROR CODES

Every time when error occurred the error code is passed to on_error or to on_reply callback. Error codes can be used for programmatic handling of errors.

AnyEvent::Redis::RipeRedis provides constants of error codes, which can be imported and used in expressions.

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

Can't connect to the server. All operations were aborted.

E_LOADING_DATASET

Redis is loading the dataset in memory.

E_IO

Input/Output operation error. The connection to the Redis server was closed and all operations were aborted.

E_CONN_CLOSED_BY_REMOTE_HOST

The connection closed by remote host. All operations were aborted.

E_CONN_CLOSED_BY_CLIENT

Connection closed by client prematurely. Uncompleted operations were aborted.

E_NO_CONN

No connection to the Redis server. Connection was lost by any reason on previous operation.

E_OPRN_ERROR

Operation error. For example, wrong number of arguments for a command.

E_UNEXPECTED_DATA

The client received unexpected data from the server. The connection to the Redis server was closed and all operations were aborted.

E_READ_TIMEDOUT

Read timed out. The connection to the Redis server was closed and all operations were aborted.

Error codes available since Redis 2.6.

E_NO_SCRIPT

No matching script. Use the EVAL command.

E_BUSY

Redis is busy running a script. You can only call SCRIPT KILL or SHUTDOWN NOSAVE.

E_MASTER_DOWN

Link with MASTER is down and slave-serve-stale-data is set to 'no'.

E_MISCONF

Redis is configured to save RDB snapshots, but is currently not able to persist on disk. Commands that may modify the data set are disabled. Please check Redis logs for details about the error.

E_READONLY

You can't write against a read only slave.

E_OOM

Command not allowed when used memory > 'maxmemory'.

E_EXEC_ABORT

Transaction discarded because of previous errors.

Error codes available since Redis 2.8.

E_NO_AUTH

Authentication required.

E_WRONG_TYPE

Operation against a key holding the wrong kind of value.

E_NO_REPLICAS

Not enough good slaves to write.

E_BUSY_KEY

Target key name already exists.

Error codes available since Redis 3.0.

E_CROSS_SLOT

Keys in request don't hash to the same slot.

E_TRY_AGAIN

Multiple keys request during rehashing of slot.

E_ASK

Redirection required. For more information see: http://redis.io/topics/cluster-spec

E_MOVED

Redirection required. For more information see: http://redis.io/topics/cluster-spec

E_CLUSTER_DOWN

The cluster is down or hash slot not served.

DISCONNECTION

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

disconnect()

The method for synchronous disconnection. All uncompleted operations will be aborted.

  $redis->disconnect();

quit()

The method for asynchronous disconnection.

  $redis->quit(
    sub {
      # handling...
    }
  );

OTHER METHODS

connection_timeout( [ $fractional_seconds ] )

Get or set the connection_timeout of the client. The undef value resets the connection_timeout to default value.

read_timeout( [ $fractional_seconds ] )

Get or set the read_timeout of the client.

reconnect( [ $boolean ] )

Enables or disables reconnection mode of the client.

min_reconnect_interval( [ $fractional_seconds ] )

Get or set min_reconnect_interval of the client.

encoding( [ $enc_name ] )

Get or set the current encoding of the client.

on_connect( [ $callback ] )

Get or set the on_connect callback.

on_disconnect( [ $callback ] )

Get or set the on_disconnect callback.

on_connect_error( [ $callback ] )

Get or set the on_connect_error callback.

on_error( [ $callback ] )

Get or set the on_error callback.

selected_database()

Get currently selected database index.

KNOWN BUGS

Methods unsubscribe() and punsubscribe() without arguments don't works correctly. This issue fixed in AnyEvent::RipeRedis.
