Dependencies
This gem will be installed using bundle.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'aerospike-store'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install aerospike-store
Usage
Session Store
Add this line to your config/initializers/session_store.rb:
YourAppName::Application.config.session_store :aerospike_storeIt is possible to pass aerospike config options here. Defaults are:
AppName::Application.config.session_store :aerospike_store,
:host => "127.0.0.1",
:port => 3000,
:ns => "test",
:set => "session",
:bin => "data"Or send in a custom client instance:
YourAppName::Application.config.session_store :aerospike_store,
:client => Aerospike::Client.new("127.0.0.1", 3000)Supported data types are:
- Integer
- String
- List
- Hash
Storing other data types requires serialization.
Sample code
session[:user_id] ||= 42
session[:user_id] += 1
session[:numbers] = [1, 3, 5, 6]
session[:user] = {'title' => 'Amir', 'user_group' => 'root'}
session[:map_list_mix] = [{'r' => 220, 'g' => 0, 'b' => 80}, {'r' => 100, 'g' => 255, 'b' => 25}]
session[:instance] = Marshal.dump(myInstance)Cache Store
Add this line to your config/application.rb:
config.cache_store = :aerospike_storeIt is possible to pass aerospike config options here. Defaults are:
config.cache_store = :aerospike_store,
:host => "127.0.0.1",
:port => 3000,
:ns => "test",
:set => "cache",
:bin => "entry"Or send in a custom client instance:
config.cache_store = :aerospike_store,
:client => Aerospike::Client.new("127.0.0.1", 3000)Supported options
- :expires_in
- :raw
- :unless_exist
- Aerospike policies
Supported functions
- increment
- decrement
Sample code
Rails.cache.read('message') # => nil
Rails.cache.write('message', "Aerospike is great!")
@message = Rails.cache.read('message') # => "Aerospike is great!"Using fetch:
@message = Rails.cache.fetch('LongProcess', :expires_in => 30) {
sleep (3) # waste some time!
"Processed in 3 seconds!"
}increment and decrement functions only work with :raw data:
Rails.cache.write('hits', 0, {:raw => true, :unless_exist => true})
Rails.cache.increment('hits', 10)
Rails.cache.decrement('hits')
hits = Rails.cache.read('hits', {:raw => true})Fragment caching:
Enable in config/environments/development.rb:
config.action_controller.perform_caching = trueInside a view:
<% cache("RecentPosts", :expires_in => 30) do %>
<% sleep(3) # waste some time! %>
<h1> Recent Posts</h1>
<ul>
<li>post 234</li>
<li>post 235</li>
</ul>
<% end %>It is also possible to create and use an AerospikeStore cache instance:
cache = ActiveSupport::Cache::AerospikeStore.new
@message = cache.read('message')Single-Bin
By default an Aerospike namespace supports multiple bins per key. As both cache store and session store only use a single bin for stroing data, it is recommended to to enable single-bin option in namespace configuration for higher performance.
