NAME

MojoX::Redis - asynchronous Redis client for Mojolicious.

SYNOPSIS

my $redis = MojoX::Redis->new(server => '127.0.0.1:6379');
# Execute some commands
$redis->ping(
sub {
my ($redis, $res) = @_;
if ($res) {
print "Got result: ", $res->[0], "\n";
}
else {
print "Error: ", $redis->error, "\n";
}
}
);
# Work with keys
$redis->set(key => 'value');
$redis->get(
key => sub {
my ($redis, $res) = @_;
print "Value of 'key' is $res->[0]\n";
}
);
# Cleanup connection
$redis->quit(sub { shift->stop });
# Start IOLoop (in case it is not started yet)
$redis->start;

Create new Mojo::IOLoop instance if you need to get blocked in a Mojolicious application.

get '/' => sub {
my $self = shift;
my $redis = MojoX::Redis->new(ioloop => Mojo::IOLoop->new);
my $value;
$redis->set(foo => 'bar')->get(
foo => sub {
my ($redis, $result) = @_;
$redis->quit->stop;
return app->log->error($redis->error) unless $result;
$value = $result->[0];
}
)->start;
$self->render(text => qq(Foo value is "$value"));
};
app->start;

DESCRIPTION

MojoX::Redis is an asynchronous client to Redis for Mojo.

ATTRIBUTES

MojoX::Redis implements the following attributes.

server

my $server = $redis->server;
$redis = $redis->server('127.0.0.1:6379');

Redis server connection string, defaults to '127.0.0.1:6379'.

ioloop

my $ioloop = $redis->ioloop;
$redis = $redis->ioloop(Mojo::IOLoop->new);

Loop object to use for io operations, by default a Mojo::IOLoop singleton object will be used.

timeout

my $timeout = $redis->timeout;
$redis = $redis->timeout(100);

Maximum amount of time in seconds a connection can be inactive before being dropped, defaults to 300.

encoding

my $encoding = $redis->encoding;
$redis = $redis->encoding('UTF-8');

Encoding used for stored data, defaults to UTF-8.

protocol_redis

$redis->protocol_redis("Protocol::Redis::XS");

Protocol::Redis implementation' constructor for parsing. By default Protocol::Redis will be used. Parser library must support APIv1.

Using Protocol::Redis::XS instead of default choice can speedup parsing.

METHODS

MojoX::Redis supports Redis' methods.

$redis->set(key => 'value);
$redis->get(key => sub { ... });

For more details take a look at execute method.

Also MojoX::Redis implements the following ones.

connect

$redis = $redis->connect;

Connect to Redis server.

execute

$redis = $redis->execute("ping" => sub{
my ($redis, $result) = @_;
# Process result
});
$redis->execute(lrange => ["test", 0, -1] => sub {...});
$redis->execute(set => [test => "test_ok"]);

Execute specified command on Redis server. If error occured during request $result will be set to undef, error string can be obtained with $redis->error.

error

$redis->execute("ping" => sub {
my ($redis, $result) = @_;
die $redis->error unless defined $result;
});

Returns error occured during command execution. Note that this method returns error code just from current command and can be used just in callback.

on_error

$redis->on_error(sub{
my $redis = shift;
warn 'Redis error ', $redis->error, "\n";
});

Executes if error occured. Called before commands callbacks.

start

$redis->start;

Starts IOLoop. Shortcut for $redis->ioloop->start;
