NAME CHI::Driver::Memcached -- Distributed cache via memcached (memory cache daemon) SYNOPSIS use CHI; my $cache = CHI->new( driver => 'Memcached', # or 'Memcached::Fast', or 'Memcached::libmemcached' namespace => 'products', servers => [ "10.0.0.15:11211", "10.0.0.15:11212", "/var/sock/memcached", "10.0.0.17:11211", [ "10.0.0.17:11211", 3 ] ], debug => 0, compress_threshold => 10_000, ); DESCRIPTION A CHI driver that uses Cache::Memcached to store data in the specified memcached server(s). CHI::Driver::Memcached::Fast and CHI::Driver::Memcached::libmemcached are also available as part of this distribution. They work with other Memcached clients and support a similar feature set. Documentation for all three modules is presented below. CONSTRUCTOR OPTIONS Namespace, appended with ":", is passed along to the Cached::Memcached::* constructor, along with any constructor options not recognized by CHI - for example *servers*, *compress_threshold* and *debug*. If you need more control over the options passed to Cache::Memcached::*, you may specify a hash directly in `memd_params'. METHODS Besides the standard CHI methods: memd Returns a handle to the underlying Cache::Memcached::* object. You can use this to call memcached-specific methods that are not supported by the general API, e.g. $self->memd->incr("key"); my $stats = $self->memd->stats(); UNSUPPORTED METHODS These standard CHI methods cannot currently be supported by memcached, chiefly because there is no way to get a list of stored keys. dump_as_hash clear get_keys get_namespaces is_empty purge SUPPORT AND DOCUMENTATION Questions and feedback are welcome, and should be directed to the perl-cache mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/perl-cache-discuss Bugs and feature requests will be tracked at RT: http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bugs.html?Dist=CHI-Driver-Memcached The latest source code can be browsed and fetched at: http://github.com/jonswar/perl-chi-driver-memcached/tree/master git clone git://github.com/jonswar/perl-chi-driver-memcached.git AUTHOR Jonathan Swartz SEE ALSO CHI, Cache::Memcached, CHI::Driver::Memcached::Fast, CHI::Driver::Memcached::libmemcached COPYRIGHT & LICENSE Copyright (C) 2007 Jonathan Swartz.
