rust-memcache

rust-memcache is a memcached client written in pure rust.

Basic usage

```rust // create connection with to memcached server node: let mut client = memcache::Client::connect("memcache://127.0.0.1:12345?timeout=10&tcp_nodelay=true").unwrap();

// flush the database client.flush().unwrap();

// set a string value client.set("foo", "bar", 0).unwrap();

// retrieve from memcached: let value: Option = client.get("foo").unwrap(); asserteq!(value, Some(String::from("bar"))); asserteq!(value.unwrap(), "bar");

// prepend, append: client.prepend("foo", "foo").unwrap(); client.append("foo", "baz").unwrap(); let value: String = client.get("foo").unwrap().unwrap(); assert_eq!(value, "foobarbaz");

// delete value: client.delete("foo").unwrap();

// using counter: client.set("counter", 40, 0).unwrap(); client.increment("counter", 2).unwrap(); let answer: i32 = client.get("counter").unwrap().unwrap(); assert_eq!(answer, 42); ```

Custom key hash function

If you have multiple memcached server, you can create the memcache::Client struct with a vector of urls of them. Which server will be used to store and retrive is based on what the key is.

This library have a basic rule to do this with rust's builtin hash function, and also you can use your custom function to do this, for something like you can using a have more data on one server which have more memory quota, or cluster keys with their prefix, or using consitent hash for large memcached cluster.

rust let mut client = memcache::Client::connect(vec!["memcache://127.0.0.1:12345", "memcache:///tmp/memcached.sock"]).unwrap(); client.hash_function = |key: &str| -> u64 { // your custom hashing function here return 1; };
