In the future, functions will be added for creating +// sharded and other types of connections. +// +// The application must call the connection Close method when the application +// is done with the connection. +// +// Executing Commands +// +// The Conn interface has a generic method for executing Redis commands: +// +// Do(commandName string, args ...interface{}) (reply interface{}, err error) +// +// The Redis command reference (http://redis.io/commands) lists the available +// commands. An example of using the Redis APPEND command is: +// +// n, err := conn.Do("APPEND", "key", "value") +// +// The Do method converts command arguments to binary strings for transmission +// to the server as follows: +// +// Go Type Conversion +// []byte Sent as is +// string Sent as is +// int, int64 strconv.FormatInt(v) +// float64 strconv.FormatFloat(v, 'g', -1, 64) +// bool true -> "1", false -> "0" +// nil "" +// all other types fmt.Print(v) +// +// Redis command reply types are represented using the following Go types: +// +// Redis type Go type +// error redis.Error +// integer int64 +// simple string string +// bulk string []byte or nil if value not present. +// array []interface{} or nil if value not present. +// +// Use type assertions or the reply helper functions to convert from +// interface{} to the specific Go type for the command result. +// +// Pipelining +// +// Connections support pipelining using the Send, Flush and Receive methods. +// +// Send(commandName string, args ...interface{}) error +// Flush() error +// Receive() (reply interface{}, err error) +// +// Send writes the command to the connection's output buffer. Flush flushes the +// connection's output buffer to the server. Receive reads a single reply from +// the server. The following example shows a simple pipeline. +// +// c.Send("SET", "foo", "bar") +// c.Send("GET", "foo") +// c.Flush() +// c.Receive() // reply from SET +// v, err = c.Receive() // reply from GET +// +// The Do method combines the functionality of the Send, Flush and Receive +// methods. The Do method starts by writing the command and flushing the output +// buffer. Next, the Do method receives all pending replies including the reply +// for the command just sent by Do. If any of the received replies is an error, +// then Do returns the error. If there are no errors, then Do returns the last +// reply. If the command argument to the Do method is "", then the Do method +// will flush the output buffer and receive pending replies without sending a +// command. +// +// Use the Send and Do methods to implement pipelined transactions. +// +// c.Send("MULTI") +// c.Send("INCR", "foo") +// c.Send("INCR", "bar") +// r, err := c.Do("EXEC") +// fmt.Println(r) // prints [1, 1] +// +// Concurrency +// +// Connections do not support concurrent calls to the write methods (Send, +// Flush) or concurrent calls to the read method (Receive). Connections do +// allow a concurrent reader and writer. +// +// Because the Do method combines the functionality of Send, Flush and Receive, +// the Do method cannot be called concurrently with the other methods. +// +// For full concurrent access to Redis, use the thread-safe Pool to get and +// release connections from within a goroutine. +// +// Publish and Subscribe +// +// Use the Send, Flush and Receive methods to implement Pub/Sub subscribers. +// +// c.Send("SUBSCRIBE", "example") +// c.Flush() +// for { +// reply, err := c.Receive() +// if err != nil { +// return err +// } +// // process pushed message +// } +// +// The PubSubConn type wraps a Conn with convenience methods for implementing +// subscribers. The Subscribe, PSubscribe, Unsubscribe and PUnsubscribe methods +// send and flush a subscription management command. The receive method +// converts a pushed message to convenient types for use in a type switch. +// +// psc := redis.PubSubConn{c} +// psc.Subscribe("example") +// for { +// switch v := psc.Receive().(type) { +// case redis.Message: +// fmt.Printf("%s: message: %s\n", v.Channel, v.Data) +// case redis.Subscription: +// fmt.Printf("%s: %s %d\n", v.Channel, v.Kind, v.Count) +// case error: +// return v +// } +// } +// +// Reply Helpers +// +// The Bool, Int, Bytes, String, Strings and Values functions convert a reply +// to a value of a specific type. To allow convenient wrapping of calls to the +// connection Do and Receive methods, the functions take a second argument of +// type error. If the error is non-nil, then the helper function returns the +// error. If the error is nil, the function converts the reply to the specified +// type: +// +// exists, err := redis.Bool(c.Do("EXISTS", "foo")) +// if err != nil { +// // handle error return from c.Do or type conversion error. +// } +// +// The Scan function converts elements of a array reply to Go types: +// +// var value1 int +// var value2 string +// reply, err := redis.Values(c.Do("MGET", "key1", "key2")) +// if err != nil { +// // handle error +// } +// if _, err := redis.Scan(reply, &value1, &value2); err != nil { +// // handle error +// } +package redis |
