# NAME
Redis::Fast - Perl binding for Redis database
# SYNOPSIS
## Defaults to $ENV{REDIS_SERVER} or 127.0.0.1:6379
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new;
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(server => 'redis.example.com:8080');
## Set the connection name (requires Redis 2.6.9)
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(
server => 'redis.example.com:8080',
name => 'my_connection_name',
);
my $generation = 0;
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(
server => 'redis.example.com:8080',
name => sub { "cache-$$-".++$generation },
);
## Use UNIX domain socket
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(sock => '/path/to/socket');
## Enable auto-reconnect
## Try to reconnect every 500ms up to 60 seconds until success
## Die if you can't after that
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(reconnect => 60, every => 500_000);
## Try each 100ms up to 2 seconds (every is in microseconds)
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(reconnect => 2, every => 100_000);
## Disable the automatic utf8 encoding => much more performance
## !!!! This will be the default after 2.000, see ENCODING below
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(encoding => undef);
## Use all the regular Redis commands, they all accept a list of
## arguments
## See
http://redis.io/commands for full list
$redis->get('key');
$redis->set('key' => 'value');
$redis->sort('list', 'DESC');
$redis->sort(qw{list LIMIT 0 5 ALPHA DESC});
## Add a coderef argument to run a command in the background
$redis->sort(qw{list LIMIT 0 5 ALPHA DESC}, sub {
my ($reply, $error) = @_;
die "Oops, got an error: $error\n" if defined $error;
print "$_\n" for @$reply;
});
long_computation();
$redis->wait_all_responses;
## or
$redis->wait_one_response();
## Or run a large batch of commands in a pipeline
my %hash = _get_large_batch_of_commands();
$redis->hset('h', $_, $hash{$_}, sub {}) for keys %hash;
$redis->wait_all_responses;
## Publish/Subscribe
$redis->subscribe(
'topic_1',
'topic_2',
sub {
my ($message, $topic, $subscribed_topic) = @_
## $subscribed_topic can be different from topic if
## you use psubscribe() with wildcards
}
);
$redis->psubscribe('nasdaq.*', sub {...});
## Blocks and waits for messages, calls subscribe() callbacks
## ... forever
my $timeout = 10;
$redis->wait_for_messages($timeout) while 1;
## ... until some condition
my $keep_going = 1; ## other code will set to false to quit
$redis->wait_for_messages($timeout) while $keep_going;
$redis->publish('topic_1', 'message');
# DESCRIPTION
`Redis::Fast` is a wrapper around Salvatore Sanfilippo's
[hiredis](
https://github.com/redis/hiredis) C client.
It is compatible with [Redis.pm](
https://github.com/melo/perl-redis).
This version supports protocol 2.x (multi-bulk) or later of Redis available at
[
https://github.com/antirez/redis/](
https://github.com/antirez/redis/).
## Reconnect on error
Besides auto-reconnect when the connection is closed, `Redis::Fast` supports
reconnecting on the specified errors by the `reconnect_on_error` option.
Here's an example that will reconnect when receiving `READONLY` error:
my $r = Redis::Fast->new(
reconnect => 1, # The value greater than 0 is required
reconnect_on_error => sub {
my ($error, $ret, $command) = @_;
if ($error =~ /READONLY You can't write against a read only slave/) {
# force reconnect
return 1;
}
# do nothing
return -1;
},
);
This feature is useful when using Amazon ElastiCache.
Once failover happens, Amazon ElastiCache will switch the master
we currently connected with to a slave,
leading to the following writes fails with the error `READONLY`.
Using `reconnect_on_error`, we can force the connection to reconnect on this error
in order to connect to the new master.
If your Elasticache Redis is enabled to be set an option for [close-on-slave-write](
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonElastiCache/latest/UserGuide/ParameterGroups.Redis.html#ParameterGroups.Redis.2-8-23),
this feature might be unnecessary.
The return value of `reconnect_on_error` should be greater than `-2`. `-1` means that
`Redis::Fast` behaves the same as without this option. `0` and greater than `0`
means that `Redis::Fast` forces to reconnect and then
wait for a next force reconnect until this value seconds elapse.
This unit is a second, and the type is double. For example, 0.01 means 10 milliseconds.
Note: This feature is not supported for the subscribed mode.
