Configuration example

Below is an example of a memcache server configuration.

return array(
     'default'   => array(                          // Default group
             'driver'         => 'memcache',        // using Memcache driver
             'servers'        => array(             // Available server definitions
                    // First memcache server server
                    array(
                         'host'             => 'localhost',
                         'port'             => 11211,
                         'persistent'       => FALSE
                         'weight'           => 1,
                         'timeout'          => 1,
                         'retry_interval'   => 15,
                         'status'           => TRUE,
            'instant_death'    => TRUE,
                         'failure_callback' => array('className', 'classMethod')
                    ),
                    // Second memcache server
                    array(
                         'host'             => '192.168.1.5',
                         'port'             => 22122,
                         'persistent'       => TRUE
                    )
             ),
             'compression'    => FALSE,             // Use compression?
      ),
)

In cases where only one cache group is required, if the group is named default there is no need to pass the group name when instantiating a cache instance.

General cache group configuration settings

Below are the settings available to all types of cache driver.

Name Required Description
driver YES (string) The driver type to use
servers YES (array) Associative array of server details, must include a host key. (see Memcache server configuration below)
compression NO (boolean) Use data compression when caching

Memcache server configuration

The following settings should be used when defining each memcache server

Name Required Description
host YES (string) The host of the memcache server, i.e. localhost; or 127.0.0.1; or memcache.domain.tld
port NO (integer) Point to the port where memcached is listening for connections. Set this parameter to 0 when using UNIX domain sockets. Default 11211
persistent NO (boolean) Controls the use of a persistent connection. Default TRUE
weight NO (integer) Number of buckets to create for this server which in turn control its probability of it being selected. The probability is relative to the total weight of all servers. Default 1
timeout NO (integer) Value in seconds which will be used for connecting to the daemon. Think twice before changing the default value of 1 second - you can lose all the advantages of caching if your connection is too slow. Default 1
retry_interval NO (integer) Controls how often a failed server will be retried, the default value is 15 seconds. Setting this parameter to -1 disables automatic retry. Default 15
status NO (boolean) Controls if the server should be flagged as online. Default TRUE
failure_callback NO (callback) Allows the user to specify a callback function to run upon encountering an error. The callback is run before failover is attempted. The function takes two parameters, the hostname and port of the failed server. Default NULL

Methods

public _failed_request( string $hostname , integer $port ) (defined in Kohana_Cache_Memcache)

Callback method for Memcache::failure_callback to use if any Memcache call on a particular server fails. This method switches off that instance of the server if the configuration setting instant_death is set to TRUE.

Parameters

  • string $hostname required - $hostname
  • integer $port required - $port

Tags

  • Since - 3.0.8

Return Values

  • void|boolean

Source Code

public function _failed_request($hostname, $port)
{
	if ( ! $this->_config['instant_death'])
		return;

	// Setup non-existent host
	$host = FALSE;

	// Get host settings from configuration
	foreach ($this->_config['servers'] as $server)
	{
		// Merge the defaults, since they won't always be set
		$server += $this->_default_config;
		// We're looking at the failed server
		if ($hostname == $server['host'] and $port == $server['port'])
		{
			// Server to disable, since it failed
			$host = $server;
			continue;
		}
	}

	if ( ! $host)
		return;
	else
	{
		return $this->_memcache->setServerParams(
			$host['host'],
			$host['port'],
			$host['timeout'],
			$host['retry_interval'],
			FALSE, // Server is offline
			array($this, '_failed_request'
			));
	}
}

public delete( string $id [, integer $timeout = integer 0 ] ) (defined in Kohana_Cache_Memcache)

Delete a cache entry based on id

// Delete the 'foo' cache entry immediately
Cache::instance('memcache')->delete('foo');

// Delete the 'bar' cache entry after 30 seconds
Cache::instance('memcache')->delete('bar', 30);

Parameters

  • string $id required - Id of entry to delete
  • integer $timeout = integer 0 - Timeout of entry, if zero item is deleted immediately, otherwise the item will delete after the specified value in seconds

Return Values

  • boolean

Source Code

public function delete($id, $timeout = 0)
{
	// Delete the id
	return $this->_memcache->delete($this->_sanitize_id($id), $timeout);
}

public delete_all( ) (defined in Kohana_Cache_Memcache)

Delete all cache entries.

Beware of using this method when using shared memory cache systems, as it will wipe every entry within the system for all clients.

// Delete all cache entries in the default group
Cache::instance('memcache')->delete_all();

Return Values

  • boolean

Source Code

public function delete_all()
{
	$result = $this->_memcache->flush();

	// We must sleep after flushing, or overwriting will not work!
	// @see http://php.net/manual/en/function.memcache-flush.php#81420
	sleep(1);

	return $result;
}

public get( string $id [, string $default = NULL ] ) (defined in Kohana_Cache_Memcache)

// Retrieve cache entry from memcache group and return 'bar' if miss
$data = Cache::instance('memcache')->get('foo', 'bar');

Parameters

  • string $id required - Id of cache to entry
  • string $default = NULL - Default value to return if cache miss

Tags

Return Values

  • mixed

	if ($value === FALSE)
	{
		$value = (NULL === $default) ? NULL : $default;

{
     // Cache was set successfully
     return
