NAME
MCE::Shared::Cache - A hybrid LRU-plain cache helper class
VERSION
This document describes MCE::Shared::Cache version 1.850
DESCRIPTION
A cache helper class for use as a standalone or managed by MCE::Shared.
This module implements a least-recently used (LRU) cache with its origin based on MCE::Shared::Ordhash, for its performance and low-memory characteristics. It is both a LRU and plain implementation. LRU logic is applied to new items and subsequent updates. A fetch however, involves LRU reorder only if the item is found in the lower section of the cache. This equates to extra performance for the upper section as fetch behaves similarly to accessing a plain cache. Upon reaching its size restriction, it prunes items from the bottom of the cache.
The 50% LRU-mode (bottom section), 50% plain-mode (upper-section) applies to fetches only.

tied(%ca)->incrby(some_key => 20);SYNTAX for QUERY STRING
Several methods take a query string for an argument. The format of the string is described below. In the context of sharing, the query mechanism is beneficial for the shared-manager process. It is able to perform the query where the data resides versus the client-process grep locally involving lots of IPC.
o Basic demonstration
@keys = $ca->keys( "query string given here" );
@keys = $ca->keys( "val =~ /pattern/" );
o Supported operators: =~ !~ eq ne lt le gt ge == != < <= > >=
o Multiple expressions delimited by :AND or :OR, mixed case allowed
"key eq 'some key' :or (val > 5 :and val < 9)"
"key eq some key :or (val > 5 :and val < 9)"
"key =~ /pattern/i :And val =~ /pattern/i"
"val eq foo baz :OR key !~ /pattern/i"
* key matches on keys in the cache
* likewise, val matches on values
o Quoting is optional inside the string
"key =~ /pattern/i :AND val eq 'foo bar'" # val eq "foo bar"
"key =~ /pattern/i :AND val eq foo bar" # val eq "foo bar"Examples.
# search capability key/val: =~ !~ eq ne lt le gt ge == != < <= > >=
# key/val means to match against actual key/val respectively
@keys = $ca->keys( "key eq 'some key' :or (val > 5 :and val < 9)" );
@keys = $ca->keys( "key eq some key :or (val > 5 :and val < 9)" );
@keys = $ca->keys( "key =~ /$pattern/i" );
@keys = $ca->keys( "key !~ /$pattern/i" );
@keys = $ca->keys( "val =~ /$pattern/i" );
@keys = $ca->keys( "val !~ /$pattern/i" );
%pairs = $ca->pairs( "key == $number" );
%pairs = $ca->pairs( "key != $number :and val > 100" );
%pairs = $ca->pairs( "key < $number :or key > $number" );
%pairs = $ca->pairs( "val <= $number" );
%pairs = $ca->pairs( "val > $number" );
%pairs = $ca->pairs( "val >= $number" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "key eq $string" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "key ne $string with space" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "key lt $string :or val =~ /$pat1|$pat2/" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "val le $string :and val eq 'foo bar'" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "val le $string :and val eq foo bar" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "val gt $string" );
@vals = $ca->vals( "val ge $string" );API DOCUMENTATION
This module involves TIE when accessing the object via hash-like behavior. Both non-shared and shared instances are impacted if doing so. Although likely fast enough for many use cases, the OO interface is recommended for best performance.
Accessing an item is likely to involve moving its key to the top of the cache. Various methods described below state with Reorder: Yes or Reorder: No as an indication.
The methods keys, pairs, and values return the most frequently accessed items from the upper section of the cache first before the lower section. Returned values may not be ordered as expected. This abnormally is normal for this hybrid LRU-plain implementation. It comes from fetches not involving LRU movement on keys residing in the upper section of the cache.
When max_age is set, accessing an item which has expired will behave similarly to a non-existing item.

$ca->assign( @pairs );Reorder: Yes, when given key-value pairs contain duplicate keys
assign ( key, value [, key, value, ... ] )
Clears the cache, then sets multiple key-value pairs and returns the number of keys stored in the cache. This is equivalent to clear, mset.
$len = $ca->assign( "key1" => "val1", "key2" => "val2" );Reorder: Yes, when given key-value pairs contain duplicate keys
clear
Removes all key-value pairs from the cache.

$age = $ca->max_age;
$ca->max_age( "43200 seconds" );
$ca->max_age( 43200 ); # ditto
$ca->max_age( "720 minutes" );
$ca->max_age( "12 hours" );

$ca->max_age( undef ); # no expiration
$ca->max_age( 0 ); # nowmax_keys ( [ size ] )
Returns the size limit set on the cache or "unlimited" if not defined internally. When size is given, it adjusts the cache accordingly to the new size by pruning the head of the list if necessary.
$size = $ca->max_keys;
$ca->max_keys( undef ); # unlimited
$ca->max_keys( "4 KiB" ); # 4*1024

$val = $ca->{ "some_key" };Reorder: No
pipeline ( [ func1, @args ], [ func2, @args ], ... )
Combines multiple commands for the object to be processed serially. For shared objects, the call is made atomically due to single IPC to the shared-manager process. The pipeline method is fully wantarray-aware and receives a list of commands and their arguments. In scalar or list context, it returns data from the last command in the pipeline.
@vals = $ca->pipeline( # ( "a_a", "b_b", "c_c" )
[ "set", foo => "a_a" ],
[ "set", bar => "b_b" ],
[ "set", baz => "c_c" ],
[ "mget", qw/ foo bar baz / ]
);

[ "set", foo => "i_i" ],
[ "set", bar => "j_j" ],
[ "set", baz => "k_k" ],
[ "len" ]
);

[ "set", bar => "b_b" ],
[ "set", baz => "c_c" ]
);Reorder: Very likely, see API on given command
purge ( )
Remove all tombstones and expired data from the cache.
$ca->purge;remove
remove is an alias for delete.
set ( key, value [, expires_in ] )
Sets the value of the given cache key and returns its new value. Optionally in v1.839 and later releases, give the number of seconds before the key is expired.
$val = $ca->set( "key", "value" );
$val = $ca->{ "key" } = "value";
$val = $ca->set( "key", "value", 3600 ); # or "60 minutes"
$val = $ca->set( "key", "value", undef ); # or "never"
$val = $ca->set( "key", "value", 0 ); # or "now"

SUGAR METHODS
This module is equipped with sugar methods to not have to call set and get explicitly. In shared context, the benefit is atomicity and reduction in inter-process communication.
The API resembles a subset of the Redis primitives http://redis.io/commands#strings with key representing the cache key.
Optionally in v1.839 and later releases, give the number of seconds before the key is expired, similarly to set.
append ( key, string [, expires_in ] )
Appends a value to a key and returns its new length.
$len = $ca->append( $key, "foo" );Reorder: Yes
decr ( key [, expires_in ] )
Decrements the value of a key by one and returns its new value.
$num = $ca->decr( $key );Reorder: Yes
decrby ( key, number [, expires_in ] )
Decrements the value of a key by the given number and returns its new value.
$num = $ca->decrby( $key, 2 );Reorder: Yes
getdecr ( key [, expires_in ] )
Decrements the value of a key by one and returns its old value.
$old = $ca->getdecr( $key );Reorder: Yes
getincr ( key [, expires_in ] )
Increments the value of a key by one and returns its old value.
$old = $ca->getincr( $key );Reorder: Yes
getset ( key, value [, expires_in ] )
Sets the value of a key and returns its old value.
$old = $ca->getset( $key, "baz" );Reorder: Yes
incr ( key [, expires_in ] )
Increments the value of a key by one and returns its new value.
$num = $ca->incr( $key );Reorder: Yes
incrby ( key, number [, expires_in ] )
Increments the value of a key by the given number and returns its new value.

PERFORMANCE TESTING
One might want to benchmark this module. If yes, remember to use the non-shared construction for running on a single core.
use MCE::Shared::Cache;
my $cache = MCE::Shared::Cache->new( max_keys => 500_000 );Otherwise, the following is a parallel version for a benchmark script found on the web. The serial version was created by Celogeek for benchmarking various caching modules.
The MCE progress option makes it possible to track progress while running parallel. This script involves IPC to and from the shared-manager process, where the data resides. In regards to IPC, fetches may take longer on Linux versus Darwin or FreeBSD.
