Memcache::get — Obtener valor del servidor
$key, int &$flags = ?): string$keys, array &$flags = ?): array
Memcache::get() devuelve los datos previamente almacenados si
el valor con la key existe en el servidor en este momento.
Se puede pasar un array de llaves a Memcache::get() para obtener un array de valores. El resultado del array contendrá solamente las parejas llave-valor encontradas.
keyLa llave o array de llaves a capturar.
flagsSi está presente, las flags capturadas juntamente con los valores serán escritas en este parámetro. Estas flags son las mismas que las dadas por ejemplo en Memcache::set(). El byte más bajo del entero está reservado para uso interno de pecl/memcache (ej. para estado de compresión y serialización).
Devuelve la cadena asociada con la clave dada por key o
un array de pares clave-valor cuando key es un array.
Devuelve false en caso de error, key no se encuentra, o
key es un array vacío.
Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo de Memcache::get()
<?php
/* API por procedimientos */
$memcache_obj = memcache_connect('memcache_host', 11211);
$var = memcache_get($memcache_obj, 'some_key');
/* API OO */
$memcache_obj = new Memcache;
$memcache_obj->connect('memcache_host', 11211);
$var = $memcache_obj->get('some_key');
/*
También se puede usar array de keys como parámetro.
Si el valor no fue encontrado en el servidor, el
resultado del array simplemente no contendrá dicha
clave.
*/
/* API por procedimientos */
$memcache_obj = memcache_connect('memcache_host', 11211);
$var = memcache_get($memcache_obj, Array('some_key', 'another_key'));
/* API OO */
$memcache_obj = new Memcache;
$memcache_obj->connect('memcache_host', 11211);
$var = $memcache_obj->get(Array('some_key', 'second_key'));
?>
$flags stays untouched if $key was not found on the server, it's helpfull to determine if bool(false) was stored:
<?php
$memcache = new Memcache();
$memcache->set('test', false); //
$flags = false;
var_dump($memcache->get('test', $flags)); // bool(false)
var_dump($flags); // int(256) - changed to int
$memcache->delete('test');
$flags = false;
var_dump($memcache->get('test', $flags)); // bool(false)
var_dump($flags); // bool(false) - untouched
?>
Beware, if there's a backslash present in the key name then the results are unpredictable and random.
I was generating keys like this:
$mc_key = get_called_class(). $_COOKIE['crumb'];
This works fine when get_called_class() returns CLASSNAME.
But then I began using namespaces, and get_class_class() of course returned NAMESPACE\CLASSNAME
Well that backslash sends Memcache into quite the tizzy.
No errors, mind you, just insanity.
Note that if you include spaces in your keys when saving Data and use array of keys to get the Data, The returned array will replace spaces with underscores in the keys.
<?php
$memcache = new Memcache;
$memcache->connect('localhost');
$memcache->set('my-key', 'value1', 0, 300);
$memcache->set('key with space', 'value 2', 0, 300);
print_r($memcache->get(array('my-key', 'key with space'))); // Array ( [my-key] => value1 [key_with_space] => value 2 )
?>
Memcache replaces spaces with underscores when saving, it does so when doing a get too, but when you do a get with single key (string) you don't notice this as it merely returns the value. But when you do a get for array of keys, you would expect the same keys in the returned array but it replaces spaces by underscores in them.
Avoid reading too many values from memcahce. Each get() consumes some memory. You should cache the values instead, once they are read. Illustration of bad practice:
<?php // reading from memcache leaks
$m = new Memcache();
$m -> connect( "localhost", "11211" );
$m -> add("foo", "bar");
for(;;) { // this "endless" loop will finish because it eats up all the memory
$res = $m -> get("foo");
print memory_get_usage()."\n"; // this writes bigger and bigger numbers
}
If deserialization fails for some reason, that is when memcache server returned flag 1 set, but the value was not a correctly serialized PHP data,
then Memcache::get acts in a following way:
If it was called with a single key to retrieve, then a warning is raised, but since it was not actually a bug of a server, the warning says something confusing like "Memcached Server Error: null" and the function returns bool(false).
If it was called by passing an array (even with a single element in it), then the warning is not raised and the resulting array contains a value bool(false).
Since there are some buffer overrun bugs present in Memcached Server, which from time to time cause overwriting of [part of] data and therefore rendering it impossible to deserialize, make sure to check if the result of Memcache::get contains only string, or deserialized structure. If the result is bool,dobule or long, then something went wrong.
Signature is not correct.
<?php
$memcache = new Memcache();
$memcache->connect('localhost', 11211);
class Test { public $property = "testvalue"; }
$test = new Test();
$memcache->set("asdf", $test);
var_dump($memcache->get("asdf"));
/* will return the object, not the string:
class Test#3 (1) {
public $property =>
string(9) "testvalue"
}
*/
?>
Be aware that when using the multi-key version, Memcache::get returns bool false if no servers are configured for the pool (and possibly if other errors occur as well while attempting to fetch). Also, Memcache class throws annoying warnings on every get/set/delete-type calls if you have no servers added to the pool.
The following snippet var_dump's bool false, not an empty array like you might expect.
<?php
$cache = new Memcache;
// no $cache->addServer calls (for example,
due to temporarily disabling use of cache)
// use @ symbol to ignore warning
var_dump(
@$cache->get(array('one', 'two'))
);
?>
For me it was the case that if such key doesn't exist, null is returned not false.
