"""
client module for memcached (memory cache daemon) using ultramemcached

Overview
========

See U{the MemCached homepage<http://www.danga.com/memcached>} for more about memcached.

Usage summary
=============

This should give you a feel for how this module operates::

    import ultramemcache
    mc = ultramemcache.Client(['127.0.0.1:11211'], debug=0)

    mc.set("some_key", "Some value")
    value = mc.get("some_key")

    mc.set("another_key", 3)
    mc.delete("another_key")

    mc.set("key", "1")   # note that the key used for incr/decr must be a string.
    mc.incr("key")
    mc.decr("key")

The standard way to use memcache with a database is like this::

    key = derive_key(obj)
    obj = mc.get(key)
    if not obj:
        obj = backend_api.get(...)
        mc.set(key, obj)

    # we now have obj, and future passes through this code
    # will use the object from the cache.

Detailed Documentation
======================

More detailed documentation is available in the L{Client} class.

        UMEMCACHE DOES NOT SUPPORT SET_MULTI, this function simply loops
        over a standard set, and is convenience only until it is supported.

        @param mapping: A dict of key/value pairs to set.
        @param time: Tells memcached the time which this value should expire, either
        as a delta number of seconds, or an absolute unix time-since-the-epoch
        value. See the memcached protocol docs section "Storage Commands"
        for more info on <exptime>. We default to 0 == cache forever.
        @param key_prefix:  Optional string to prepend to each key when sending to memcache. Allows you to efficiently stuff these keys into a pseudo-namespace in memcache:
            >>> notset_keys = mc.set_multi({'key1' : 'val1', 'key2' : 'val2'}, key_prefix='subspace_')

            True

            Causes key 'subspace_key1' and 'subspace_key2' to be set. Useful in conjunction with a higher-level layer which applies namespaces to data in memcache.
            In this case, the return result would be the list of notset original keys, prefix not applied.

        @param min_compress_len: The threshold length to kick in auto-compression
        of the value using the zlib.compress() routine. If the value being cached is
        a string, then the length of the string is measured, else if the value is an
        object, then the length of the pickle result is measured. If the resulting
        attempt at compression yeilds a larger string than the input, then it is
        discarded. For backwards compatability, this parameter defaults to 0,
        indicating don't ever try to compress.
        @return: List of keys which failed to be stored [ memcache out of memory, etc. ].

        get_mult [ and L{set_multi} ] can take str()-ables like ints / longs as keys too. Such as your db pri key fields.
        They're rotored through str() before being passed off to memcache, with or without the use of a key_prefix.
        In this mode, the key_prefix could be a table name, and the key itself a db primary key number.

        This method is recommended over regular L{get} as it lowers the number of
        total packets flying around your network, reducing total latency, since
        your app doesn't have to wait for each round-trip of L{get} before sending
        the next one.
