Memcache::set

(PECL memcache:0.2-2.1.2)

Memcache::set — Store data at the server

Descrição

bool Memcache::set ( string $key , mixed $var [, int $flag [, int $expire ]] )

Memcache::set() stores an item var with key on the memcached server. Parameter expire is expiration time in seconds. If it's 0, the item never expires (but memcached server doesn't guarantee this item to be stored all the time, it could be deleted from the cache to make place for other items). You can use MEMCACHE_COMPRESSED constant as flag value if you want to use on-the-fly compression (uses zlib).

Nota: Remember that resource variables (i.e. file and connection descriptors) cannot be stored in the cache, because they cannot be adequately represented in serialized state.

Also you can use memcache_set() function.

Parâmetros

key

The key that will be associated with the item.

var

The variable to store. Strings and integers are stored as is, other types are stored serialized.

flag

Use MEMCACHE_COMPRESSED to store the item compressed (uses zlib).

expire

Expiration time of the item. If it's equal to zero, the item will never expire. You can also use Unix timestamp or a number of seconds starting from current time, but in the latter case the number of seconds may not exceed 2592000 (30 days).

Valor Retornado

Retorna TRUE em caso de sucesso ou FALSE em falhas.

Exemplo #1 Memcache::set() example

<?php

/*
set value of item with key 'var_key'
using 0 as flag value, compression is not used

echo 
memcache_get($memcache_obj'var_key');

/*

This is just two minor things about memcache that might not be perfectly clear, the limits on key and data sizes and what happen to flags in the memcache protocol.

* There is a max key size of 250 anything bigger gets truncated. There is also a (1MB - 42 bytes) limit on the data.

* In the memcache protocol there is a 16bit, 32bit in newer version, flag that you can set to whatever you want because memcache doesn't do anything with the flags. The php api doesn't let you get the flags because php uses the flags for php's own use such as "MEMCACHE_COMPRESSED" and I decided to test if it was doing something because it wasn't part of the memcache protocol.

<?php
$memcache
= new Memcache();
$memcache->connect("127.0.0.1", 11211);

// Since memcache truncates the keys at 250 bytes both the get "250 a's" and "251 a's" will find the key in the cache
echo "*** Truncate key test ***<br>";
echo
"set 251: " . ($memcache->set(str_repeat("a", 251), "value", 0, 1) ? "t" : "f") . "<br>";

echo
"get 249: " . (($ret = $memcache->get(str_repeat("a", 249))) !== false ? "'$ret'" : "f") . "<br>";
echo
"get 250: " . (($ret = $memcache->get(str_repeat("a", 250))) !== false ? "'$ret'" : "f") . "<br>";
echo
"get 251: " . (($ret = $memcache->get(str_repeat("a", 251))) !== false ? "'$ret'" : "f") . "<br>";
echo
"delete: " . ($memcache->delete(str_repeat("a", 250)) ? "t" : "f") . "<br><br>";

echo
"*** Compress value test ***<br>";
echo
"set 1024*1024-42: " . ($memcache->set("test", str_repeat("a", 1024*1024-42), 0, 1) ? "t" : "f") . "<br>";
echo
"set 1024*1024-41: " . ($memcache->set("test", str_repeat("a", 1024*1024-41), 0, 1) ? "t" : "f") . "<br>";
echo
"set 1024*1024 compressed: " . ($memcache->set("test", str_repeat("a", 1024*1024), MEMCACHE_COMPRESSED, 1) ? "t" : "f") . "<br>";
echo
"delete: " . ($memcache->delete("test") ? "t" : "f") . "<br>";
$memcache->close();
?>

Output:
*** Truncate key test ***
set 251: t
get 249: f
get 250: 'value'
get 251: 'value'
delete: t

*** Compress value test ***
set 1024*1024-42: t
set 1024*1024-41: f
set 1024*1024 compressed: t
delete: t
