Memcached::get

(PECL memcached >= 0.1.0)

Memcached::getRetrieve an item


Description

public Memcached::get ( string $key [, callable $cache_cb [, int $$flags ]] ) : mixed

Memcached::get() returns the item that was previously stored under the key. If the item is found and the flags is given Memcached::GET_EXTENDED, it will also return the CAS token value for the item. See Memcached::cas() for how to use CAS tokens. Read-through caching callback may be specified via cache_cb parameter.


Parameters

key
The key of the item to retrieve.
cache_cb
Read-through caching callback or NULL.
flags
Flags to control the returned result. When Memcached::GET_EXTENDED is given, the function will also return the CAS token.


Return Values

Returns the value stored in the cache or FALSE otherwise. If the flags is set to Memcached::GET_EXTENDED, an array containing the value and the CAS token is returned instead of only the value. The Memcached::getResultCode() will return Memcached::RES_NOTFOUND if the key does not exist.


Examples

Example #1 Memcached::get() example #1

<?php$m = new Memcached();$m->addServer('localhost', 11211);$m->set('foo', 100);var_dump($m->get('foo'));?>

int(100)

Example #2 Memcached::get() example #2

<?php$m = new Memcached();$m->addServer('localhost', 11211);if (!($ip = $m->get('ip_block'))) {    if ($m->getResultCode() == Memcached::RES_NOTFOUND) {        $ip = array();        $m->set('ip_block', $ip);    } else {        /* log error */        /* ...       */    }}?>

Changelog
