PHP Memcached get() Function
The Memcached::get() function is an inbuilt function of memcached class in PHP which is used to get the value under a given key stored on memcache server.
Syntax:
public Memcached::get( $key,
callable $cache_cb = ?, $$flags = ?): mixed
Parameters: This function accepts three parameters that are:
- 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.
Below program illustrate the Memcached::set() function in PHP:
Example 1:
PHP
<?php
echo "<pre>" ;
$server = '127.0.0.1' ;
$port = 11211;
$memcacheD = new Memcached();
if ( $memcacheD ->addServer( $server , $port )) {
echo "** server added ** \n" ;
}
else {
echo "** issue while creating a server **\n" ;
}
$key = "GEEKSFORGEEKS" ;
$value = "computer science portal" ;
$ttl = 3600;
if ( $memcacheD ->add( $key , $value , $ttl ))
echo "** added key-value (" . $key . ":"
. $value . ")to cache successfully!! **\n" ;
else
echo "** error while adding value to cache!! **\n" ;
echo "**** FETCHED VALUE FOR KEY :"
. $key . " ****\n" ;
$valD = $memcacheD ->get( $key );
var_dump( $valD );
?>
|
Output:
** server added **
** added key-value (GEEKSFORGEEKS:computer science portal)to cache successfully!! **
**** FETCHED VALUE FOR KEY :GEEKSFORGEEKS ****
string(23) “computer science portal”
Example 2 (Key-value already stored):
PHP
<?php
echo "<pre>" ;
$server = '127.0.0.1' ;
$port = 11211;
$memcacheD = new Memcached();
if ( $memcacheD ->addServer( $server , $port )) {
echo "** server added ** \n" ;
}
else {
echo "** issue while creating a server **\n" ;
}
$key = "GEEKSFORGEEKS" ;
$value = "computer science portal" ;
$ttl = 3600;
if ( $memcacheD ->add( $key , $value , $ttl ))
echo "** added key-value (" . $key . ":"
. $value . ")to cache successfully!! **\n" ;
else
echo "** error while adding value to cache!! **\n" ;
echo "**** FETCHED VALUE FOR KEY :"
. $key . " ****\n" ;
$valD = $memcacheD ->get( $key );
var_dump( $valD );
?>
|
Output:
** server added **
** error while adding value to cache!! :: MSG:: NOT STORED **
**** FETCHED VALUE FOR KEY :geeksforgeeks ****
string(23) “computer science portal”
