NAME

Protocol::Redis::XS - hiredis based parser compatible with Protocol::Redis

SYNOPSIS

  use Protocol::Redis::XS;
  my $redis = Protocol::Redis::XS->new(api => 1);
  $redis->parse("+OK\r\n");
  $redis->get_message;

DESCRIPTION

This provides a fast parser for the Redis protocol using the code from hiredis and with API compatibility with Protocol::Redis.

(If you've found yourself here just looking to use Redis in Perl: This is a low level parsing module, you probably want to look at the modules mentioned in "SEE ALSO" first.)

METHODS

As per Protocol::Redis, API version 1.

parse

Parse a chunk of data (calls "on_message" callback if defined and a complete message is received).

get_message

Return a message. This is a potentially nested data structure, for example as follows:

  {
    type => '*',
    data => [
      {
        type => '$',
        data => 'hello'
      }
    ]
  }

on_message

Set callback for "parse".

THREADS

This module will work on a threaded perl and will work with threads, however instances of Protocol::Redis should not be shared between threads.
