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 Sentinels, possibly with password
my $redis = Redis::Fast->new(
  sentinels => [ '10.0.0.1:16379', '10.0.0.2:16379', ],
  service   => 'mymaster',
  sentinels_password => 'TheB1gS3CR3T', # optional
);

## 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 C client. It is compatible with Redis.pm.

This version supports protocol 2.x (multi-bulk) or later of Redis available at 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, 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.
