Auto record expire based on TTL

Implements TTL-based record expiry via a Lua script which is periodically executed by the TC runtime.

  • The calling period is customizable via -extpc flag
  • Data is stored inside a ‘table’ engine where key ‘x’ stores the unix timestamp for the expiry date
  • Lua cleanup script is called periodically to scan the database for keys ready to be removed, which are then purged from the DB.

Starting server

  # call expire script every 5 seconds
  > ttserver -ext expire.lua -extpc expire 5 "casket.tct#idx=x:dec#bnum=2000000"

Executing via Ruby

  > ruby expire.rb
  > nil
  > {"name"=>"bob", "x"=>"1247025691"}
