new MCClient(options)

Create a mc client instance.

Parameters:

• {object} options
  • {String} host
  • {Integer} port
  • {String} [username]
  • {String} [password]
  • {String} [protocol]

Example:

const MCClient = require('ali-mc');
const mc = new MCClient({
  host: ${host},
  port: ${port},
  username: ${username},
  password: ${password},
  // protocol: ${protocol}, // default is `binary`, also can use `text`
  // responseTimeout: 50,
  // logger: console,
});

.ready(callback)

If the client is ready for services, callback function will be called.

Otherwise all method will return The server is not available!;

.get(key[, callback])

Get the item with specified key.

Parameters:

• {String} key
• {function(err, value)} [callback]

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

Example:

// call with callback
mc.get(${someKey}, function(err, value) {
  if (err) {
    return console.log(err);
  }
  console(value);
});

// call without callback
const co = require('co');
co(function *() {
  try {
    let value = yield mc.get(${someKey});
    console.log(value);
  } catch(err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
});

.set(key, value[, expired, callback])

.add(key, value[, expired, callback])

.replace(key, value[, expired, callback])

Set should store the data unconditionally if the item exists or not. Add MUST fail if the item already exist. Replace MUST fail if the item doesn't exist.

Parameters:

• {String} key
• {object} value - anything except for function, null and undefined
• {UnsignedInteger} [expired = 0] - in seconds
• {function(err)} [callback]

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

.delete(key[, callback])

Delete the item with specified key.

Parameters:

• {String} key
• {function(err)} [callback]

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

.increment(key[, step, callback])

.decrement(key[, step, callback])

Add or remove the specified amount to the requested counter.

Increment will cause the counter to wrap if it is up to the max value of 64 bit unsigned int.

Decrement will never result in a "negative value" (or cause the counter to "wrap")

Parameters:

• {String} key
• {PostiveInteger|UnsignedLong|object} [step = 1] - amount to add or remove. An object could be passed in to specify more details:
  • {UnsignedInteger|UnsignedLong} [step = 1]
  • {UnsignedInteger|UnsignedLong} [initial = 1] - initial value
  • {UnsignedInteger} [expired = 0] - in seconds
• {function(err, value)} [callback] - the returned value is an instance of unsigned Long. If the item doesn't exist, the server will respond with the initial value.

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

Example:

mc.increment(${someKey}, function(err, value) { ... });

// above is equal to
mc.increment(${someKey}, 1, function(err, value) { ... });

// also is equal to
mc.increment(${someKey}, {
  step: 1,
}, function(err, value) { ... });

.flush([expired, callback])

Flush the items in the cache now or some time in the future as specified by the "expired" field.

Parameters:

• {UnsignedInteger} [expired = 0] - in seconds
• {function(err)} [callback]

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

.version([callback])

Request the server version.

Parameters:

• {function(err, value)} [callback] - the value is a version string

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

.append(key, value[, callback])

.prepend(key, value[, callback])

Append or prepend the specified value to the requested key.

Parameters:

• {String} key
• {String|Buffer} value
• {function(err)} [callback]

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

Example:

// appends "!" to the "Hello" key
mc.append('Hello', '!', function(err) { ... });

.touch(key[, expired, callback])

Change the item's expiration.

Parameters:

• {String} key
• {UnsignedInteger} [expired = 0] - in seconds
• {function(err)} [callback]

Return:

• {mc|thunk} returns the mc instance if the callback is passed in, or return the thunk.

.gat(key[, expired, callback])

All the same with .touch() except this it will return the value of the spcified key. Text protocol not support

.close()

Close the client, you should listen the 'close' event to confirm that the client closes.

Event: 'error'

Emitted when an error occurs.

Parameters:

• {Error} err - error object

Event: 'close'

Emitted when the client closes.
