#
# The reason for this code:
#
# IO::Select and buffered reads like <$sock> and read() dont mix
# For example, if I receive two MESSAGE messages (from Redis PubSub),
# the first read for the first message will probably empty to socket
# buffer and move the data to the perl IO buffer.
#
# This means that IO::Select->can_read will return false (after all
# the socket buffer is empty) but from the application point of view
# there is still data to be read and process
#
# Hence this code. We try to do a non-blocking read() of 1 byte, and if
# we succeed, we put it back and signal "yes, Virginia, there is still
# stuff out there"
#
# We could just use sysread and leave the socket buffer with the second
# message, and then use IO::Select as intended, and previous versions of
# this code did that (check the git history for this file), but
# performance suffers, about 20/30% slower, mostly because we do a lot
# of "read one line", where <$sock> beats the crap of anything you can
# write on Perl-land.

## Lots of problems with Windows here. This is a temporary fix until I
## figure out what is happening there. It looks like the wrong fix

## below (buffered I/O), so I do expect to revert this soon.
## Call it a run through the CPAN Testers Gautlet fix. If I had to
## guess (and until my Windows box has a new power supply I do have to
## guess), I would say that the problems lies with the call
## __fh_nonblocking(), where on Windows we don't end up with a non-

=head1 DESCRIPTION
Pure perl bindings for L<http://redis.io/>
This version supports protocol 2.x (multi-bulk) or later of Redis
available at L<https://github.com/antirez/redis/>.
This documentation lists commands which are exercised in test suite, but
additional commands will work correctly since protocol specifies enough
information to support almost all commands with same piece of code with
a little help of C<AUTOLOAD>.
=head1 PIPELINING
Usually, running a command will wait for a response. However, if you're
doing large numbers of requests, it can be more efficient to use what Redis
calls I<pipelining>: send multiple commands to Redis without waiting for a
response, then wait for the responses that come in.
To use pipelining, add a coderef argument as the last argument to a command
method call:
$r->set('foo', 'bar', sub {});
Pending responses to pipelined commands are processed in a single batch, as
soon as at least one of the following conditions holds:
=over 4
=item *
A non-pipelined (synchronous) command has been sent on the same connection
=item *
A pub/sub subscription command (one of C<subscribe>, C<unsubscribe>,
C<psubscribe>, or C<punsubscribe>) is about to be sent on the same
connection.
=item *
The L</wait_all_responses> method is called explicitly.
=back
The coderef you supply to a pipelined command method is invoked once the
response is available. It takes two arguments, C<$reply> and C<$error>. If
C<$error> is defined, it contains the text of an error reply sent by the
Redis server. Otherwise, C<$reply> is the non-error reply. For almost all
commands, that means it's C<undef>, or a defined but non-reference scalar,
or an array ref of any of those; but see L</keys>, L</info>, and L</exec>.
Note the contrast with synchronous commands, which throw an exception on
receipt of an error reply, or return a non-error reply directly.
The fact that pipelined commands never throw an exception can be
particularly useful for Redis transactions; see L</exec>.
=head1 ENCODING
B<This feature is deprecated and will be removed before 2.000>. You
should start testing your code with C<< encoding => undef >> because
that will be the new default with 2.000.
Since Redis knows nothing about encoding, we are forcing utf-8 flag on
all data received from Redis. This change was introduced in 1.2001
version. B<Please note> that this encoding option severely degrades
performance.
You can disable this automatic encoding by passing an option to
L</new>: C<< encoding => undef >>.
This allows us to round-trip utf-8 encoded characters correctly, but
might be problem if you push binary junk into Redis and expect to get it
back without utf-8 flag turned on.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 Constructors
=head3 new
my $r = Redis->new; # $ENV{REDIS_SERVER} or 127.0.0.1:6379
my $r = Redis->new( server => '192.168.0.1:6379', debug => 0 );
my $r = Redis->new( server => '192.168.0.1:6379', encoding => undef );
my $r = Redis->new( sock => '/path/to/sock' );
my $r = Redis->new( reconnect => 60, every => 5000 );
my $r = Redis->new( password => 'boo' );
The C<< server >> parameter specifies the Redis server we should connect
to, via TCP. Use the 'IP:PORT' format. If no C<< server >> option is
present, we will attempt to use the C<< REDIS_SERVER >> environment
variable. If neither of those options are present, it defaults to
'127.0.0.1:6379'.
Alternatively you can use the C<< sock >> parameter to specify the path
of the UNIX domain socket where the Redis server is listening.
The C<< REDIS_SERVER >> can be used for UNIX domain sockets too. The following formats are supported:
=over 4
=item *
/path/to/sock
=item *
unix:/path/to/sock
=item *
127.0.0.1:11011
=item *
tcp:127.0.0.1:11011
=back
The C<< encoding >> parameter speficies the encoding we will use to
decode all the data we receive and encode all the data sent to the redis
server. Due to backwards-compatibility we default to C<< utf8 >>. To
disable all this encoding/decoding, you must use C<<encoding => undef>>.
B<< This is the recommended option >>.
B<< Warning >>: this option has several problems and it is
B<deprecated>. A future version might add other filtering options though.
The C<< reconnect >> option enables auto-reconnection mode. If we cannot
connect to the Redis server, or if a network write fails, we enter retry
mode. We will try a new connection every C<< every >> miliseconds
(1000ms by default), up-to C<< reconnect >> seconds.
Be aware that read errors will always thrown an exception, and will not
trigger a retry until the new command is sent.
If we cannot re-establish a connection after C<< reconnect >> seconds,
an exception will be thrown.
If your Redis server requires authentication, you can use the
C<< password >> attribute. After each established connection (at the
start or when reconnecting), the Redis C<< AUTH >> command will be send
to the server. If the password is wrong, an exception will be thrown and
reconnect will be disabled.
The C<< debug >> parameter enables debug information to STDERR,
including all interactions with the server. You can also enable debug
with the C<REDIS_DEBUG> environment variable.
=head2 Connection Handling
=head3 quit
$r->quit;
Closes the connection to the server. The C<quit> method does not support
pipelined operation.
=head3 ping
$r->ping || die "no server?";
The C<ping> method does not support pipelined operation.
=head2 Pipeline management
=head3 wait_all_responses
Waits until all pending pipelined responses have been received, and invokes
the pipeline callback for each one. See L</PIPELINING>.
=head2 Transaction-handling commands
B<Warning:> the behaviour of these commands when combined with
pipelining is still under discussion, and you should B<NOT> use them at
the same time just now.
You can L<follow the discussion to see the open issues with this|https://github.com/melo/perl-redis/issues/17>.
=head3 multi
$r->multi;
=head3 discard
$r->discard;
=head3 exec
my @individual_replies = $r->exec;
C<exec> has special behaviour when run in a pipeline: the C<$reply> argument
to the pipeline callback is an array ref whose elements are themselves
C<[$reply, $error]> pairs. This means that you can accurately detect errors
yielded by any command in the transaction, and without any exceptions being
thrown.
=head2 Commands operating on string values

Note that synchronous C<keys> calls in a scalar context return the number of
matching keys (not an array ref of matching keys as you might expect). This
does not apply in pipelined mode: assuming the server returns a list of
keys, as expected, it is always passed to the pipeline callback as an array
ref.

=head2 Publish/Subscribe commands
When one of L</subscribe> or L</psubscribe> is used, the Redis object
will enter I<PubSub> mode. When in I<PubSub> mode only commands in this
section, plus L</quit>, will be accepted.
If you plan on using PubSub and other Redis functions, you should
use two Redis objects, one dedicated to PubSub and the other for
regular commands.
All Pub/Sub commands receive a callback as the last parameter. This callback receives three arguments:
=over 4
=item *
The published message.
=item *
The topic over which the message was sent.
=item *
The subscribed topic that matched the topic for the message. With
L</subscribe> these last two are the same, always. But with
L</psubscribe>, this parameter tells you the pattern that matched.
=back
See the L<Pub/Sub notes|http://redis.io/topics/pubsub> for more
information about the messages you will receive on your callbacks after
each L</subscribe>, L</unsubscribe>, L</psubscribe> and
L</punsubscribe>.
=head3 publish
$r->publish($topic, $message);
Publishes the C<< $message >> to the C<< $topic >>.
=head3 subscribe
$r->subscribe(
@topics_to_subscribe_to,
sub {
my ($message, $topic, $subscribed_topic) = @_;
...
},
);
Subscribe one or more topics. Messages published into one of them will
be received by Redis, and the specificed callback will be executed.
=head3 unsubscribe
$r->unsubscribe(@topic_list, sub { my ($m, $t, $s) = @_; ... });
Stops receiving messages for all the topics in C<@topic_list>.
=head3 psubscribe
my @topic_matches = ('prefix1.*', 'prefix2.*');
$r->psubscribe(@topic_matches, sub { my ($m, $t, $s) = @_; ... });
Subscribes a pattern of topics. All messages to topics that match the
pattern will be delivered to the callback.
=head3 punsubscribe
my @topic_matches = ('prefix1.*', 'prefix2.*');
$r->punsubscribe(@topic_matches, sub { my ($m, $t, $s) = @_; ... });
Stops receiving messages for all the topics pattern matches in C<@topic_list>.
=head3 is_subscriber
if ($r->is_subscriber) { say "We are in Pub/Sub mode!" }
Returns true if we are in I<Pub/Sub> mode.
=head3 wait_for_messages
my $keep_going = 1; ## Set to false somewhere to leave the loop
my $timeout = 5;
$r->wait_for_messages($timeout) while $keep_going;
Blocks, waits for incoming messages and delivers them to the appropriate callbacks.
Requires a single parameter, the number of seconds to wait for messages.
Use 0 to wait for ever. If a positive non-zero value is used, it will
return after that ammount of seconds without a single notification.
Please note that the timeout is not a commitement to return control to
the caller at most each C<timeout> seconds, but more a idle timeout,
were control will return to the caller if Redis is idle (as in no
messages were received during the timeout period) for more than
C<timeout> seconds.
The L</wait_for_messages> call returns the number of messages processed
during the run.
=head2 Persistence control commands
=head3 save
$r->save;
=head3 bgsave
$r->bgsave;
=head3 lastsave
$r->lastsave;
=head2 Scripting commands
=head3 eval
$r->eval($lua_script, $num_keys, $key1, ..., $arg1, $arg2);
Executes a Lua script server side.
Note that this commands sends the Lua script every time you call it. See
L</evalsha> and L</script_load> for an alternative.
=head3 evalsha
$r->eval($lua_script_sha1, $num_keys, $key1, ..., $arg1, $arg2);
Executes a Lua script cached on the server side by its SHA1 digest.
See L</script_load>.
=head3 script_load
my ($sha1) = $r->script_load($lua_script);
Cache Lua script, returns SHA1 digest that can be used with L</evalsha>.
=head3 script_exists
my ($exists1, $exists2, ...) = $r->script_exists($scrip1_sha, $script2_sha, ...);
Given a list of SHA1 digests, returns a list of booleans, one for each
SHA1, that report the existence of each script in the server cache.
=head3 script_kill
$r->script_kill;
Kills the currently running script.
=head3 script_flush
$r->script_flush;
Flush the Lua scripts cache.
=head2 Remote server control commands
=head3 info
my $info_hash = $r->info;
The C<info> method is unique in that it decodes the server's response into a
hashref, if possible. This decoding happens in both synchronous and
pipelined modes.
=head3 shutdown
$r->shutdown;
The C<shutdown> method does not support pipelined operation.
=head2 Multiple databases handling commands
=head3 select
$r->select( $dbindex ); # 0 for new clients
=head3 move
$r->move( $key, $dbindex );
=head3 flushdb
$r->flushdb;
=head3 flushall
$r->flushall;
