Overview

A cache store implementation which stores data in Memcached: memcached.org

This is currently the most popular cache store for production websites.

Special features:

  • Clustering and load balancing. One can specify multiple memcached servers, and MemCacheStore will load balance between all available servers. If a server goes down, then MemCacheStore will ignore it until it comes back up.

MemCacheStore implements the Strategy::LocalCache strategy which implements an in-memory cache inside of a block.

Constructor Details

#initialize(*addresses) ⇒ MemCacheStore

Creates a new MemCacheStore object, with the given memcached server addresses. Each address is either a host name, or a host-with-port string in the form of “host_name:port”. For example:

ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore.new("localhost", "server-downstairs.localnetwork:8229")

If no addresses are provided, but ENV is defined, it will be used instead. Otherwise, MemCacheStore will connect to localhost:11211 (the default memcached port).

Class Method Details

.build_mem_cache(*addresses) ⇒ Object

Creates a new Dalli::Client instance with specified addresses and options. If no addresses are provided, we give nil to Dalli::Client, so it uses its fallbacks:

  • ENV (if defined)

  • “127.0.0.1:11211” (otherwise)

    ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore.build_mem_cache

    # => #<Dalli::Client:0x007f98a47d2028 @servers=["127.0.0.1:11211"], @options={}, @ring=nil>

    ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore.build_mem_cache(‘localhost:10290’)

    # => #<Dalli::Client:0x007f98a47b3a60 @servers=["localhost:10290"], @options={}, @ring=nil>

.supports_cache_versioning? ⇒ Boolean

Instance Method Details

#clear(options = nil) ⇒ Object

Clear the entire cache on all memcached servers. This method should be used with care when shared cache is being used.

def clear(options = nil)
  rescue_error_with(nil) { @data.with { |c| c.flush_all } }
end

#decrement(name, amount = 1, options = nil) ⇒ Object

Decrement a cached value. This method uses the memcached decr atomic operator and can only be used on values written with the :raw option. Calling it on a value not stored with :raw will initialize that value to zero.

    end
  end
end

#increment(name, amount = 1, options = nil) ⇒ Object

Increment a cached value. This method uses the memcached incr atomic operator and can only be used on values written with the :raw option. Calling it on a value not stored with :raw will initialize that value to zero.
