# LXXXIII. Memcache Functions

# Введение

Memcache module provides handy procedural and object oriented interface to memcached, highly effective caching daemon, which was especially designed to decrease database load in dynamic web applications.

More information about memcached can be found at http://www.danga.com/memcached/.

# Требования

This module uses functions of zlib to support on-the-fly data compression. Zlib is required to install this module.

PHP 4.3.3 or newer is required to use the memcache extension.

# Установка

Это расширение PECL не поставляется вместе с PHP. Дополнительная информация, такая как новый версии, скачивание, исходные файлы, информация о разработчике и CHANGELOG, могут быть найдены здесь: http://pecl.php.net/package/memcache.

In order to use these functions you must compile PHP with Memcache support by using the `--enable-memcache[=DIR]` option.

Windows users will enable `php_memcache.dll` inside of `php.ini` in order to use these functions. Вы можете скачать DLL этого расширения PECL со страницы PHP Downloads или http://snaps.php.net/.

# Настройка во время выполнения

Поведение этих функций зависит от установок в `php.ini`.

Таблица 1. Memcache Configuration Options

Name | Default | Changeable | Changelog
--- | --- | --- | ---
memcache.allow_failover | "1" | PHP_INI_ALL | Available since Memcache 2.0.2
memcache.max_failover_attempts | "20" | PHP_INI_ALL | Available since Memcache 2.1.0
memcache.chunk_size | "8192" | PHP_INI_ALL | Available since Memcache 2.0.2
memcache.default_port | "11211" | PHP_INI_ALL | Available since Memcache 2.0.2

Для подробного описания констант PHP_INI_*, обратитесь к документации функции ini_set().

Краткое разъяснение конфигурационных директив.

`memcache.allow_failover` boolean

  Whether to transparently failover to other servers on errors.

`memcache.max_failover_attempts` integer

  Defines how many servers to try when setting and getting data. Used only in conjunction with memcache.allow_failover.

`memcache.chunk_size` integer

  Data will be transferred in chunks of this size, setting the value lower requires more network writes. Try increasing this value to 32768 if noticing otherwise inexplicable slowdowns.

`memcache.default_port` string

  The default TCP port number to use when connecting to the memcached server if no other port is specified.

# Типы ресурсов

There is only one resource type used in memcache module - it's the link identifier for a cache server connection.

# Предопределенные константы

Таблица 2. MemCache Constants

Name | Description
--- | ---
`MEMCACHE_COMPRESSED` (integer) | Used to turn on-the-fly data compression on with Memcache::set(), Memcache::add() и Memcache::replace().

# Примеры

Пример 1. memcache extension overview example

`<?php
$memcache = new Memcache;
$memcache->connect('localhost', 11211) or die ("Could not connect");
$version = $memcache->getVersion();
echo "Server's version: ".$version."<br/>\n";
$tmp_object = new stdClass;
$tmp_object->str_attr = 'test';
$tmp_object->int_attr = 123;
$memcache->set('key', $tmp_object, false, 10) or die ("Failed to save data at the server");
echo "Store data in the cache (data will expire in 10 seconds)<br/>\n";
$get_result = $memcache->get('key');
echo "Data from the cache:<br/>\n";
var_dump($get_result);
?>`

In the above example, an object is being saved in the cache and then retrieved back. Object and other non-scalar types are serialized before saving, so it's impossible to store resources (i.e. connection identifiers and others) in the cache.

`Hi there:
For run memcached in a windows box: (tested with latest php,apache and memcache in xp sp2)
a) download the php_memcache.dll it can be found in the pecl file.
b) put the dll in the extension folder (c:/php/extension for example). You cannot miss this folder because they are filled with php*.dll files. In some cases the extension folder used is the system32, a non-standard way to put dll but still works.
c)configure the php.ini
; i put this like the latest extension
extension=php_memcache.dll
; i'm not sure about this but don't hurts..
[Memcache]
memcache.allow_failover = 1
memcache.max_failover_attempts=20
memcache.chunk_size =8192
memcache.default_port = 11211
d)This is important, memcached works with a EXTERNAL service. This service must be downloaded and installed prior to use the memcache. I use: http://jehiah.cz/projects/memcached-win32/
e)Remember to install the service and to start the service memcached.exe -d install for install and run services.msc for start the memcached service (or restart the system).
f) check the firewall ports.
Finally restart the apache/iis and runs some test. At least in phpinfo must show some info about the memcache.
Final notes :The "awe" about memcache is not only can help for speed some process (or reduce the cpu use), also can be used like a global session for store a whole object also this "global session" is shared among all the users, like APPLICATION used in ASP. So (for example) it's possible to do a user counter without needing of database or writing a file.`

`Re. Installing the memcache extension:
I had all kinds of troubles getting it hooked up, because in all of the instructions I read I never got the last, most important step - you must have a php.ini and have in it "extension=memcache.so."
So, the steps:
First - ./configure with --enable-memcache. This should show in your phpinfo() at the top (even though nothing of the memcache extension works yet).
Second:
either pecl install memcache
OR
download the source
tar -xzvf [thesourcetarball]
phpize
./configure
make
make install
Finally: Add extension=memcache.so to your php.ini. (If you don't have one, it should go in the root of where php is called ie., /usr/local/lib)
Call phpinfo() and you should see a memcache section.`

`one more "intelligent" cache aggregator:
https://svn.shadanakar.org/onPHP/ trunk/core/Cache/AggregateCache.class.php
can be used with several cache connectors - memcached, filesystem, etc.

`An improvement to the above:
The above class will cause an error if all cache servers are down. The preferred behavior is to just have a cache miss (or take no action in the case of write operations) and return false, so the app can run in non-cached mode if all cache servers are down.
To make this happen, simply change the connection usage to look something like this in each affected function. This code is for the get() function:
$con = $this->_getConForKey($key);
if ($con === false) return false;
return $con->get($key);
Similarly, the affected code in the set() function would look like this:
$con = $this->_getConForKey($key);
if ($con === false) return false;
return $con->set($key, $var, $compress, $expire);
Modify each function accordingly, and if all of your cache servers are down, you can still function (although more slowly due to the 100% cache miss rate).`

`Here is a simple memcached aggregator class which distributes the cache among multiple cache servers. If a server fails, the load is redistributed automatically. It uses persistent connections.
The constructor takes an array of arrays, with each inner array representing a server, with a 'server' (string) attribute that is the IP addres or host name of the memcached server, and a 'port' (int) attribute that is the port number on which memcached is running on the server.
All of the existing memcached API functions are implemented except getStats() and getVersion(), which are server-specific.
<?php
class MemcachedAggregator {
var $connections;
public function __construct($servers) {
// Attempt to establish/retrieve persistent connections to all servers.
// If any of them fail, they just don't get put into our list of active
// connections.
$this->connections = array();
for ($i = 0, $n = count($servers); $i < $n; $i++) {
$server = $servers[$i];
$con = memcache_pconnect($server['host'], $server['port']);
if (!($con == false)) {
$this->connections[] = $con;
}
}
}
private function _getConForKey($key) {
$hashCode = 0;
for ($i = 0, $len = strlen($key); $i < $len; $i++) {
$hashCode = (int)(($hashCode*33)+ord($key[$i])) & 0x7fffffff;
}
if (($ns = count($this->connections)) > 0) {
return $this->connections[$hashCode%$ns];
}
return false;
}
public function debug($on_off) {
$result = false;
for ($i = 0; $i < count($connections); $i++) {
if ($this->connections[$i]->debug($on_off)) $result = true;
}
return $result;
}
public function flush() {
$result = false;
for ($i = 0; $i < count($connections); $i++) {
if ($this->connections[$i]->flush()) $result = true;
}
return $result;
}
/// The following are not implemented:
///getStats()
///getVersion()
public function get($key) {
if (is_array($key)) {
$dest = array();
foreach ($key as $subkey) {
$val = get($subkey);
if (!($val === false)) $dest[$subkey] = $val;
}
return $dest;
} else {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->get($key);
}
}
public function set($key, $var, $compress=0, $expire=0) {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->set($key, $var, $compress, $expire);
}
public function add($key, $var, $compress=0, $expire=0) {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->add($key, $var, $compress, $expire);
}
public function replace($key, $var, $compress=0, $expire=0) {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->replace
($key, $var, $compress, $expire);
}
public function delete($key, $timeout=0) {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->delete($key, $timeout);
}
public function increment($key, $value=1) {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->increment($key, $value);
}
public function decrement($key, $value=1) {
return $this->_getConForKey($key)->decrement($key, $value);
}
}
?>`
