DESCRIPTION
Riak::Client is a fast and light Perl client for Riak using PBC
interface, with optional AnyEvent mode.
It supports operations like ping, get, exists, put, del, secondary
indexes (so-called 2i) setting and querying, and Map Reduce querying.
It has two modes, a traditional procedural mode, and an event based
mode, using AnyEvent.
It started as a fork of "Riak::Light" to fix some bugs, but actually
ended up in a complete rewrite with more features, but the same
performance.
ATTRIBUTES
anyevent_mode
Enables the AnyEvent mode, allowing true asynchronous mode.
host
Str, Required. Riak IP or hostname.
port
Int, Required. Port of the PBC interface.
r
Int, Default 2. R value setting for this client.
w
Int, Default 2. W value setting for this client.
dw
Int, Default 1. DW value setting for this client.
connection_timeout
Float, Default 5. Timeout for connection operation, in seconds. Set to 0
for no timeout.
read_timeout
Float, Default 5. Timeout for read operation, in seconds. Set to 0 for
no timeout.
no_delay
Boolean, Default 0. If set to a true value, TCP_NODELAY will be enabled
on the socket, which means deactivating Nagle's algorithm. Use only if
you know what you're doing.
no_auto_connect
Bool, Default 0. If set to true, then the module won't automatically
connect upon instanciation. Instead, you'll have to call "connect()"
yourself.
anyevent_mode
Bool, Default 0. If set to true, then all methods can receive a
callback, as last argument. If present, the method will return
immediately, and the callback will be executed upon completion of the
operation, receiving a condvar as first and only argument. If set to
false (the default), then the client instance will be synchronous.
METHODS
connect
$client->connect();
$client->connect($coderef);
Connects to the Riak server. On error, will raise an exception. This is
automatically done when "new()" is called, unless the "no_auto_connect"
attribute is set to true. Accepts an optional callback, that will be
executed when connected.
# example in AnyEvent mode
$cv = AE::cv;
$client->connect(sub { print "connected!\n"; $cv->send(); });
# ...
$cv->recv();
ping
my $result = $client->ping();
$client->ping($coderef);
Performs a ping operation. On error, will raise an exception. Accepts an
optional callback, that will be executed upon completion
# example in AnyEvent mode
$cv = AE::cv;
$client->ping(sub { print "got $_[0] \n"; $cv->send(); });
# ...
$cv->recv();
# an other example
use Try::Tiny;
try { $client->ping() } catch { "oops... something is wrong: $_" };
See also "is_alive()".
is_alive
my $is_alive = $client->is_alive();
$client->is_alive($coderef);
Checks if the connection is alive. Returns true or false. On error, will
raise an exception. Accepts an optional callback, that will be executed
upon completion. Even in AnyEvent mode, this operation is synchronous.
# example in AnyEvent mode
$cv = AE::cv;
$client->is_alive(sub { print($_[0] ? "alive\n" : "dead\n"); $cv->send(); });
# ...
$cv->recv();
get
my $value = $client->get($bucket, $key);
$client->get($bucket, $key, $coderef);
# example in AnyEvent mode
$cv = AE::cv;
$client->get('bucket', 'key', sub { do_stuff_with_value($_[0]); $cv->send() });
# ...
$cv->recv();
Performs a fetch operation. Expects bucket and key names. Returns the
value. On error, will raise an exception. Accepts an optional callback,
that will be called upon completion, with the value as first argument.
If the content_type of the fetched value is 'application/json',
automatically decodes the JSON into a Perl structure. If you need the
raw data you can use "get_raw".
get_raw
my $value = $client->get_raw($bucket, $key);
$client->get_raw($bucket, $key, $coderef);
Same as "get", but no automatic JSON decoding will be performed. If you
want JSON to be automatically decoded, you should use "get()" instead.
put
$client->put($bucket, $key, $value);
$client->put($bucket, $key, $value, $coderef);
$client->put($bucket, $key, $value, $mime_type, $coderef);
$client->put($bucket, $key, $value, $mime_type, $secondary_indexes, $coderef);
$client->put($bucket, $key, $value, $mime_type, $secondary_indexes, $links, $coderef);
Performs a store operation. Expects bucket and key names, the value, the
content type (optional, default is 'application/json'), the indexes to
set for this value (optional, default is none), the links to set for
this value (optional, default is none), and an optional coderef. On
error, will raise an exception
Will encode the structure in json string if necessary. If you need to
store the raw data you should use "put_raw" instead.
IMPORTANT: all the index field names should end by either "_int" or
"_bin", depending if the index type is integer or binary.
To query secondary indexes, see "query_index".
$client->put('bucket', 'key', { some_values => [1,2,3] });
$client->put('bucket', 'key', { some_values => [1,2,3] }, 'application/json);
$client->put('bucket', 'key', 'text', 'plain/text');
# you can set secondary indexes (2i)
$client->put( 'bucket', 'key', 'text_value', 'plain/text',
{ field1_bin => 'abc', field2_int => 42 }
);
$client->put( 'bucket', 'key', { some_values => [1,2,3] }, undef,
{ field1_bin => 'abc', field2_int => 42 }
);
# you can also set links
$client->put( 'bucket', 'key', 'text', 'plain/text', undef,
{ link_tag1 => 'bucket/key',
link_tag2 => 'other_bucket/key',
}
);
# you can set multiple links for the same tag
$client->put( 'bucket', 'key', 'text', 'plain/text', undef,
{ link_tag1 => [ qw( bucket/key bucket2/key2 ) ],
link_tag2 => 'other_bucket/key',
}
);
# you can also use this form (marginally faster)
$client->put( 'bucket', 'key', 'text', 'plain/text', undef,
[ { tag => 'link_tag1', bucket => 'bucket1', key => 'key1'},
{ tag => 'link_tag2', bucket => 'bucket2', key => 'key2'},
],
);
# example in AnyEvent mode
$cv = AE::cv;
$client->put( 'bucket', 'key', 'some_text', 'plain/text',
{ field1_bin => 'abc', field2_int => 42 },
{ next_key => 'bucket2/foo'},
sub { print "data is sent to Riak\n"; $cv->send() },
);
# ...
$cv->recv();
put_raw
$client->put_raw('bucket', 'key', encode_json({ some_values => [1,2,3] }), 'application/json');
$client->put_raw('bucket', 'key', 'text');
$client->put_raw('bucket', 'key', 'text', undef, {field_bin => 'foo'});
$client->put_raw('bucket', 'key', 'text', undef, {field_bin => 'foo'}, $links);
For more example, see "put".
Perform a store operation. Expects bucket and key names, the value, the
content type (optional, default is 'plain/text'), the indexes (optional,
default is none), and links (optional, default is none) to set for this
value
This method won't encode the data, but pass it as such, trusting it's in
the type you've indicated in the passed content-type. If you want the
structure to be automatically encoded, use "put" instead.
IMPORTANT: all the index field names should end by either "_int" or
"_bin", depending if the index type is integer or binary.
To query secondary indexes, see "query_index".
del
$client->del(bucket => key);
Perform a delete operation. Expects bucket and key names.
get_keys
# in default mode
$client->get_keys(foo => sub{
my ($key, $done) = @_;
# you should use another client inside this callback!
$another_client->del(foo => $key);
});
# in anyevent mode
my $cv = AE::cv;
$client->get_keys(foo => sub{
my ($key, $done) = @_;
# ... do stuff with $key
$done and $cv->send;
});
$cv->recv();
WARNING, this method should not be called on a production Riak cluster,
as it can have a big performance impact. See Riak's documentation.
WARNING, because Riak doesn't handles pipelining, you cannot use the
same "Riak::Client" instance inside the callback, it would raise an
exception.
Perform a list keys operation. Receive a callback and will call it for
each key. The callback will receive two arguments: the key, and a
boolean indicating if it's the last key
The callback is optional, in which case an ArrayRef of all the keys are
returned. But don't do that, and always provide a callback, to avoid
your RAM usage to skyrocket...
exists
$client->exists(bucket => 'key') or warn "key not found";
Perform a fetch operation but with head => 0, and the if there is
something stored in the bucket/key.
query_index
Perform a secondary index (2i) query. Expects a bucket name, the index
field name, the index value you're searching on, and optionally a
callback.
If a callback has been provided, doesn't return anything, but execute
the callback on each matching keys. callback will receive the key name
as first argument. key name will also be in $_. If no callback is
provided, returns and ArrayRef of matching keys.
The index value you're searching on can be of two types. If it's a
Scalar, an exact match query will be performed. if the value is an
ArrayRef, then a range query will be performed, the first element in the
array will be the range_min, the second element the range_max. other
elements will be ignored.
Based on the example in "put", here is how to query it:
# exact match
my $matching_keys = $client->query_index( 'bucket', 'field2_int', 42 ),
# range match
my $matching_keys = $client->query_index( 'bucket', 'field2_int', [ 40, 50] ),
# range match with callback
$client->query_index( 'bucket', 'field2_int', [ 40, 50], sub { print "key : $_" } ),
get_buckets
WARNING, this method should not be called on a production Riak cluster,
as it can have a big performance impact. See Riak's documentation.

BENCHMARKS
Note: These benchmarks are the one provided by "Riak::Light".
Note: the AnyEvent mode is a bit slower below, because we are forcing
synchronous mode, even in AnyEvent, so the benchmark is paying the price
of having AnyEvent enabled but not used.
