Shard
in package
implements KeyValueStore

This class lets you scale your cache cluster by sharding the data across multiple cache servers.

Pass the individual KeyValueStore objects that compose the cache server pool into this constructor how you want the data to be sharded. The cache data will be sharded over them according to the order they were in when they were passed into this constructor (so make sure to always keep the order the same)

The sharding is spread evenly and all cache servers will roughly receive the same amount of cache keys. If some servers are bigger than others, you can offset this by adding the KeyValueStore object more than once.

Data can even be sharded among different adapters: one server in the shard pool can be Redis while another can be Memcached. Not sure why you would even want that, but you could!

Interfaces

KeyValueStore
Interface for key-value storage engines.

Methods

__construct()  : mixed
Overloadable with multiple KeyValueStore objects.
add()  : bool
Adds an item under new key.
addCache()  : void
cas()  : bool
Replaces an item in 1 atomic operation, to ensure it didn't change since it was originally read, when the CAS token was issued.
decrement()  : int|false
Decrements a counter value, or sets an initial value if it does not yet exist.
delete()  : bool
Deletes an item from the cache.
deleteMulti()  : array<string|int, bool>
Deletes multiple items at once (reduced network traffic compared to individual operations).
flush()  : bool

touch()  : bool
Updates an item's expiration time without altering the stored value.

Methods

add()

Adds an item under new key.

public add(string $key, mixed $value[, int $expire = 0 ]) : bool

This operation fails (returns false) if the key already exists in cache. If the operation succeeds, true will be returned.

Parameters
$key : string
$value : mixed
$expire : int = 0

Time when item falls out of the cache: 0 = permanent (doesn't expires); under 2592000 (30 days) = relative time, in seconds from now; over 2592000 = absolute time, unix timestamp

Return values
bool

cas()

Replaces an item in 1 atomic operation, to ensure it didn't change since it was originally read, when the CAS token was issued.

public cas(mixed $token, string $key, mixed $value[, int $expire = 0 ]) : bool

This operation fails (returns false) if the CAS token didn't match with what's currently in cache, when a new value has been written to cache after we've fetched it. If the operation succeeds, true will be returned.

Parameters
$token : mixed

Token received from get() or getMulti()

$key : string
$value : mixed
$expire : int = 0

Time when item falls out of the cache: 0 = permanent (doesn't expires); under 2592000 (30 days) = relative time, in seconds from now; over 2592000 = absolute time, unix timestamp

Return values
bool

decrement()

Decrements a counter value, or sets an initial value if it does not yet exist.

public decrement(string $key[, int $offset = 1 ][, int $initial = 0 ][, int $expire = 0 ]) : int|false

The new counter value will be returned if this operation succeeds, or false for failure (e.g. when the value currently in cache is not a number, in which case it can't be decremented)

Parameters
$key : string
$offset : int = 1

Value to decrement with

$initial : int = 0

Initial value (if item doesn't yet exist)

$expire : int = 0

Time when item falls out of the cache: 0 = permanent (doesn't expires); under 2592000 (30 days) = relative time, in seconds from now; over 2592000 = absolute time, unix timestamp

Return values
int|false —

New value or false on failure

delete()

Deletes an item from the cache.

public delete(string $key) : bool

Returns true if item existed & was successfully deleted, false otherwise.

Return value is a boolean true when the operation succeeds, or false on failure.

Parameters
$key : string
Return values
bool

deleteMulti()

Deletes multiple items at once (reduced network traffic compared to individual operations).

public deleteMulti(array<string|int, mixed> $keys) : array<string|int, bool>

Return value will be an associative array in [key => status] form, where status is a boolean true for success, or false for failure.

Parameters
$keys : array<string|int, mixed>
Return values
array<string|int, bool>

flush()

Clears the entire cache (or the everything for the given collection).

public flush() : bool

Return value is a boolean true when the operation succeeds, or false on failure.

Return values
bool

get()

Retrieves an item from the cache.

public get(string $key[, mixed &$token = null ]) : mixed|bool

Optionally, an 2nd variable can be passed to this function. It will be filled with a value that can be used for cas()

Parameters
$key : string
$token : mixed = null

Will be filled with the CAS token

Return values
mixed|bool —

Value, or false on failure

getCollection()

Returns an isolated subset (collection) in which to store or fetch data from.

public getCollection(string $name) : KeyValueStore

A new KeyValueStore object will be returned, one that will only have access to this particular subset of data. Exact implementation can vary between adapters (e.g. separate database, prefixed keys, ...), but it will only ever provide access to data within this collection.

It is not possible to set/fetch data across collections. Setting the same key in 2 different collections will store 2 different values, that can only be retrieved from their respective collections. Flushing a collection will only flush those specific keys and will leave keys in other collections untouched. Flushing the server, however, will wipe out everything, including data in any of the collections on that server.

Parameters
$name : string
Return values
KeyValueStore —

A new KeyValueStore instance representing only a subset of data on this server

getMulti()

Retrieves multiple items at once.

public getMulti(array<string|int, mixed> $keys[, array<string|int, mixed> &$tokens = null ]) : array<string|int, mixed>

Return value will be an associative array in [key => value] format. Keys missing in cache will be omitted from the array.

Optionally, an 2nd variable can be passed to this function. It will be filled with values that can be used for cas(), in an associative array in [key => token] format. Keys missing in cache will be omitted from the array.

getMulti is preferred over multiple individual get operations as you'll get them all in 1 request.

Parameters
$keys : array<string|int, mixed>
$tokens : array<string|int, mixed> = null

Will be filled with the CAS tokens, in [key => token] format

Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —

[key => value]

increment()

Increments a counter value, or sets an initial value if it does not yet exist.

public increment(string $key[, int $offset = 1 ][, int $initial = 0 ][, int $expire = 0 ]) : int|false

The new counter value will be returned if this operation succeeds, or false for failure (e.g. when the value currently in cache is not a number, in which case it can't be incremented)

Parameters
$key : string
$offset : int = 1

Value to increment with

$initial : int = 0

Initial value (if item doesn't yet exist)

$expire : int = 0

Time when item falls out of the cache: 0 = permanent (doesn't expires); under 2592000 (30 days) = relative time, in seconds from now; over 2592000 = absolute time, unix timestamp

Return values
int|false —

New value or false on failure

replace()

Replaces an item.

public replace(string $key, mixed $value[, int $expire = 0 ]) : bool

This operation fails (returns false) if the key does not yet exist in cache. If the operation succeeds, true will be returned.

Parameters
$key : string
$value : mixed
$expire : int = 0

Time when item falls out of the cache: 0 = permanent (doesn't expires); under 2592000 (30 days) = relative time, in seconds from now; over 2592000 = absolute time, unix timestamp

Return values
bool

set()

Stores a value, regardless of whether or not the key already exists (in which case it will overwrite the existing value for that key).

public set(string $key, mixed $value[, int $expire = 0 ]) : bool

Return value is a boolean true when the operation succeeds, or false on failure.

Parameters
$key : string
$value : mixed
$expire : int = 0

Time when item falls out of the cache: 0 = permanent (doesn't expires); under 2592000 (30 days) = relative time, in seconds from now; over 2592000 = absolute time, unix timestamp

Return values
bool

setMulti()

Store multiple values at once.

public setMulti(array<string|int, mixed> $items[, int $expire = 0 ]) : array<string|int, bool>

Return value will be an associative array in [key => status] form, where status is a boolean true for success, or false for failure.

setMulti is preferred over multiple individual set operations as you'll set them all in 1 request.
