Redis::Objects::Periodical

This is a gem which extends Redis::Objects gem. Once install this gem, you can use the periodical counter, the periodical set, etc. in addition to the standard features of Redis::Objects. These counters and sets are useful for measuring conversions, implementing API rate limiting, MAU, DAU, and more.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'redis-objects-periodical'

If you want to know about installation and standard usage, please see Redis::Objects' GitHub page.

Usage

daily_counter and daily_set automatically creates keys that are unique to each object, in the format:

model_name:id:field_name:yyyy-mm-dd

I recommend using with expireat option. For illustration purposes, consider this stub class:

class Homepage
  include Redis::Objects

  daily_counter :pv, expireat: -> { Time.now + 2_678_400 } # about a month
  daily_hash_key :browsing_history, expireat: -> { Time.now + 2_678_400 } # about a month
  daily_set :dau, expireat: -> { Time.now + 2_678_400 } # about a month
  daily_value :cache, expireat: -> { Time.now + 2_678_400 } # about a month

  def id
    1
  end
end

# 2021-04-01
homepage = Homepage.new
homepage.id # 1

homepage.pv.increment
homepage.pv.increment
homepage.pv.increment
puts homepage.pv.value # 3

# 2021-04-02 (next day)
puts homepage.pv.value # 0
homepage.pv.increment
homepage.pv.increment
puts homepage.pv.value # 2

start_date = Date.new(2021, 4, 1)
end_date = Date.new(2021, 4, 2)
homepage.pv.range(start_date, end_date) # [3, 2]

Periodical Counters

The periodical counters automatically switches the save destination when the date changes. You can access past dates counted values like Ruby arrays:

# 2021-04-01
homepage.pv.increment(3)

# 2021-04-02 (next day)
homepage.pv.increment(2)

# 2021-04-03 (next day)
homepage.pv.increment(5)

homepage.pv[Date.new(2021, 4, 1)] # => 3
homepage.pv[Date.new(2021, 4, 1), 3] # => [3, 2, 5]
homepage.pv[Date.new(2021, 4, 1)..Date.new(2021, 4, 2)] # => [3, 2]

homepage.pv.delete_at(Date.new(2021, 4, 1))
homepage.pv.range(Date.new(2021, 4, 1), Date.new(2021, 4, 3)) # => [0, 2, 5]
homepage.pv.at(Date.new(2021, 4, 2)) # => #<Redis::Counter key="homepage:1:pv:2021-04-02">
homepage.pv.at(Date.new(2021, 4, 2)).value # 2

Periodical Values

The periodical values automatically switches the save destination when the date changes.

homepage.cache.value = 'a'

# 2021-04-02 (next day)
homepage.cache.value = 'b'

# 2021-04-03 (next day)
homepage.cache.value = 'c'

homepage.cache[Date.new(2021, 4, 1)] # => 'a'
homepage.cache[Date.new(2021, 4, 1), 3] # => ['a', 'b', 'c']
homepage.cache[Date.new(2021, 4, 1)..Date.new(2021, 4, 2)] # => ['a', 'b']

homepage.cache.delete_at(Date.new(2021, 4, 1))
homepage.cache.range(Date.new(2021, 4, 1), Date.new(2021, 4, 3)) # => [nil, 'b', 'c']
homepage.cache.at(Date.new(2021, 4, 2)) # => #<Redis::Value key="homepage:1:cache:2021-04-02">
homepage.cache.at(Date.new(2021, 4, 2)).value # 'b'
