With the previous API, a NULL return value was ambiguous and could
represent either an old value of NULL or an error condition. The new API
returns a status code and allows the old value to be returned
by-reference.
This commit also includes test coverage based on
tests/modules/datatype.c which did not exist at the time of the original
commit.
This is useful to tell redis and modules to try to avoid doing things that may
increment the replication offset, and should be used when draining a master
and waiting for replicas to be in perfect sync before a failover.
Random command like SPOP with count is replicated as
some SREM operations, and store them in also_propagate
array to propagate after the call, but this would break
atomicity.
To keep the command's atomicity, wrap also_propagate
array with MULTI/EXEC.
This is a light-weight replace function, useful for use cases such as
realloc()ing an existing value, etc. Using RM_ModuleTypeSetValue() in
such cases is wasteful and complex as it attempts to delete the old
value, call its destructor, etc.
- Adding RM_ScanKey
- Adding tests for RM_ScanKey
- Refactoring RM_Scan API
Changes in RM_Scan
- cleanup in docs and coding convention
- Moving out of experimantal Api
- Adding ctx to scan callback
- Dont use cursor of -1 as an indication of done (can be a valid cursor)
- Set errno when returning 0 for various reasons
- Rename Cursor to ScanCursor
- Test filters key that are not strings, and opens a key if NULL
The implementation expose the following new functions:
1. RedisModule_CursorCreate - allow to create a new cursor object for
keys scanning
2. RedisModule_CursorRestart - restart an existing cursor to restart the
scan
3. RedisModule_CursorDestroy - destroy an existing cursor
4. RedisModule_Scan - scan keys
The RedisModule_Scan function gets a cursor object, a callback and void*
(used as user private data).
The callback will be called for each key in the database proving the key
name and the value as RedisModuleKey.
- the API name was odd, separated to two apis one for LRU and one for LFU
- the LRU idle time was in 1 second resolution, which might be ok for RDB
and RESTORE, but i think modules may need higher resolution
- adding tests for LFU and for handling maxmemory policy mismatch
Fixes GitHub issue #6492
Added stream support in RM_KeyType and RM_ValueLength.
Also moduleDelKeyIfEmpty was updated, even though it has
no effect now (It will be relevant when stream type direct
API will be coded - i.e. RM_StreamAdd)
The exposed functions:
1. RedisModule_GetUsedMemoryPercentage - return the used memory
2. RedisModue_MallocSize - return for a given pointer, the amount of memory allocated for this pointer
Add two new functions that leverage the RedisModuleDataType mechanism
for RDB serialization/deserialization and make it possible to use it
to/from arbitrary strings:
* RM_SaveDataTypeToString()
* RM_LoadDataTypeFromString()
