Memcached::append
(PECL memcached >= 0.1.0)
Memcached::append — Append data to an existing item
Description
public Memcached::append
( string $key
, string $value
) : bool
Memcached::append() appends the given
value
string to the value of an existing item. The
reason that value
is forced to be a string is
that appending mixed types is not well-defined.
Note:
If the
Memcached::OPT_COMPRESSION
is enabled, the operation will fail and a warning will be issued, because appending compressed data to a value that is potentially already compressed is not possible.
Parameters
key
- The key under which to store the value.
value
- The string to append.
Return Values
Returns TRUE
on success or FALSE
on failure.
The Memcached::getResultCode() will return
Memcached::RES_NOTSTORED
if the key does not exist.
Examples
Example #1 Memcached::append() example
<?php$m = new Memcached();$m->addServer('localhost', 11211);$m->setOption(Memcached::OPT_COMPRESSION, false);$m->set('foo', 'abc');$m->append('foo', 'def');var_dump($m->get('foo'));?>
The above example will output:
string(6) "abcdef"
