DESCRIPTION
METHODS
new
my $box = $class->new(\%args);
%args:
spaces => [ \%space, ... ]
%space:
space => $space_id_uint32
Space id as set in Tarantool/Box config.
name => $space_name_string
Self-descriptive space id, which will be mapped into "space".
format => $format_string
"pack()"-compatible tuple format string, allowed formats: "QqLlSsC(c&$)*", where
"&" stands for bytestring, "$" stands for "utf8" string. "Qq" usable only if perl
supports int64 itself. Tuples' fields are packed/unpacked according to this
"format". "*" at the end of "format" enables "LongTuple".
hashify => $coderef
Specify a callback to turn each tuple into a good-looking hash. It receives
"space" id and resultset as arguments. No return value needed.
$coderef = sub {
my ($space_id, $resultset) = @_;
$_ = { FieldName1 => $_->[0], FieldName2 => $_->[1], ... } for @$resultset;
};
fields => $arrayref
Specify an arrayref of fields names according to "format" to turn each tuple into
a good-looking hash. Names must begin with "[A-Za-z]". If "LongTuple" enabled,
last field will be used to fold tailing fields.
long_fields => $arrayref
Specify an arrayref of fields names according to "(xxx)*" to turn tailing fields
into a good-looking array of hashes. Names must begin with "[A-Za-z]". Works
with "LongTuple" enabled only.
indexes => [ \%index, ... ]
%index:
id => $index_id_uint32
Index id as set in Tarantool/Box config within current "space". If not set,
order position in "indexes" is theated as "id".
name => $index_name_string
Self-descriptive index id, which will be mapped into "index_id".
keys => [ $field_no_uint32, ... ]
Properly ordered arrayref of fields' numbers which are indexed.
default_index => $default_index_name_string_or_id_uint32
Index "id" or "name" to be used by default for the current "space" in select
operations. Must be set if there are more than one "\%index"es.
primary_key_index => $primary_key_name_string_or_id_uint32
Index "id" or "name" to be used by default for the current "space" in update
operations. It is set to "default_index" by default.
default_space => $default_space_name_string_or_id_uint32
Space "space" or "name" to be used by default. Must be set if there are more than one
"\%space"s.
timeout => $timeout_fractional_seconds_float || 23
A common timeout for network operations.
select_timeout => $select_timeout_fractional_seconds_float || 2
Select queries timeout for network operations. See "select_retry".
retry => $retry_int || 1
A common retries number for network operations.
select_retry => $select_retry_int || 3
Select queries retries number for network operations.
Sometimes we need short timeout for select's and long timeout for critical update's,
because in case of timeout we don't know if the update has succeeded. For the same
reason we can't retry update operation.
So increasing "timeout" and setting "retry => 1" for updates lowers possibility of
such situations (but, of course, does not exclude them at all), and guarantees that we
don't do the same more then once.
soft_retry => $soft_retry_int || 3
A common retries number for Tarantool/Box temporary errors (these marked by 1 in the
lowest byte of "error_code"). In that case we know for sure that the request was
declined by Tarantool/Box for some reason (a tuple was locked for another update, for
example), and we can try it again.
This is also limited by "retry"/"select_retry" (depending on query type).
retry_delay => $retry_delay_fractional_seconds_float || 1
Specify a delay between retries for network operations.
raise => $raise_bool || 1
Should we raise an exceptions? If so, exceptions are raised when no more retries left
and all tries failed (with timeout, fatal, or temporary error).
debug => $debug_level_int || 0
Debug level, 0 - print nothing, 9 - print everything
name => $name
A string used for self-description. Mainly used for debugging purposes.
Error
Last error code, or 'fail' for some network reason, oftenly a timeout.
$box->Insert(@tuple) or die sprintf "Error %X", $box->Error; # die "Error 202"
ErrorStr
Last error code and description in a single string.
$box->Insert(@tuple) or die $box->ErrorStr; # die "Error 00000202: Illegal Parameters"
Call
Call a stored procedure. Returns an arrayref of the result tuple(s) upon success.
my $results = $box->Call('stored_procedure_name', \@procedure_params, \%options) or die $box->ErrorStr; # Call failed
my $result_tuple = @$results && $results->[0] or warn "Call succeeded, but returned nothing";
@procedure_params
An array of bytestrings to be passed as is to the procecedure.
%options
unpack_format
Format to unpack the result tuple, the same as "format" option for "new()"
Add, Insert, Replace
$box->Add(@tuple) or die $box->ErrorStr; # only store a new tuple
$box->Replace(@tuple, { space => "secondary" }); # only store an existing tuple
$box->Insert(@tuple, { space => "main" }); # store anyway
Insert a @tuple into the storage into $options{space} or "default_space" space. All of
them return "true" upon success.
All of them have the same parameters:
@tuple
A tuple to insert. All fields must be defined. All fields will be "pack()"ed according
to "format" (see "new")
%options
space => $space_id_uint32_or_name_string
Specify storage space to work on.
The difference between them is the behaviour concerning tuple with the same primary key:
• Add will succeed if and only if duplicate-key tuple does not exist
• Replace will succeed if and only if a duplicate-key tuple exists
• Insert will succeed anyway. Duplicate-key tuple will be overwritten
Select
Select tuple(s) from storage
my $key = $id;
my $key = [ $firstname, $lastname ];
my @keys = ($key, ...);
my $tuple = $box->Select($key) or $box->Error && die $box->ErrorStr;
my $tuple = $box->Select($key, \%options) or $box->Error && die $box->ErrorStr;
my @tuples = $box->Select(@keys) or $box->Error && die $box->ErrorStr;
my @tuples = $box->Select(@keys, \%options) or $box->Error && die $box->ErrorStr;
my $tuples = $box->Select(\@keys) or die $box->ErrorStr;
my $tuples = $box->Select(\@keys, \%options) or die $box->ErrorStr;
$key, @keys, \@keys
Specify keys to select. All keys must be defined.
Contextual behaviour:
• In scalar context, you can select one $key, and the resulting tuple will be
returned. Check "$box->Error" to see if there was an error or there is just no
such key in the storage
• In list context, you can select several @keys, and the resulting tuples will be
returned. Check "$box->Error" to see if there was an error or there is just no
such keys in the storage
• If you select "\@keys" then "\@tuples" will be returned upon success. @tuples will
be empty if there are no such keys, and false will be returned in case of error.
Other notes:
• If you select using index on multiple fields each $key should be given as a key-
tuple "$key = [ $key_field1, $key_field2, ... ]".
%options
space => $space_id_uint32_or_name_string
Specify storage (by id or name) space to select from.
use_index => $index_id_uint32_or_name_string
Specify index (by id or name) to use.
limit => $limit_uint32
Max tuples to select. It is set to "MAX_INT32" by default.
raw => $bool
Don't "hashify" (see "new"), disable "utf8" processing.
hash_by => $by
Return a hashref of the resultset. If you "hashify" the result set, then $by must
be a field name of the hash you return, otherwise it must be a number of field of
the tuple. "False" will be returned in case of error.
Delete
Delete tuple from storage. Return false upon error.
my $n_deleted = $box->Delete($key) or die $box->ErrorStr;
my $n_deleted = $box->Delete($key, \%options) or die $box->ErrorStr;
warn "Nothing was deleted" unless int $n_deleted;
my $deleted_tuple_set = $box->Delete($key, { want_deleted_tuples => 1 }) or die $box->ErrorStr;
warn "Nothing was deleted" unless @$deleted_tuple_set;
%options
space => $space_id_uint32_or_name_string
Specify storage space (by id or name) to work on.
want_deleted_tuple => $bool
if $bool then return deleted tuple.
UpdateMulti
Apply several update operations to a tuple.
my @op = ([ f1 => add => 10 ], [ f1 => and => 0xFF], [ f2 => set => time() ], [ misc_string => cutend => 3 ]);
my $n_updated = $box->UpdateMulti($key, @op) or die $box->ErrorStr;
my $n_updated = $box->UpdateMulti($key, @op, \%options) or die $box->ErrorStr;
warn "Nothing was updated" unless int $n_updated;
my $updated_tuple_set = $box->UpdateMulti($key, @op, { want_result => 1 }) or die $box->ErrorStr;
warn "Nothing was updated" unless @$updated_tuple_set;
Different fields can be updated at one shot. The same field can be updated more than
once. All update operations are done atomically. Returns false upon error.
@op = ([ $field => $op => $value ], ...)
$field
Field-to-update number or name (see "fields", "LongTuple").
$op
set Set $field to $value
add, and, xor, or
Apply an arithmetic operation to $field with argument $value Currently
arithmetic operations are supported only for int32 (4-byte length) fields (and
$values too)
splice, substr
Apply a perl-like splice operation to $field. $value = [$OFFSET, $LENGTH,
$REPLACE_WITH]. substr is just an alias.
append, prepend
Append or prepend $field with $value string.
cutbeg, cutend
Cut $value bytes from beginning or end of $field.
%options
space => $space_id_uint32_or_name_string
Specify storage space (by id or name) to work on.
want_updated_tuple => $bool
if $bool then return updated tuple.
AnyEvent
"Insert, UpdateMulti, Select, Delete, Call" methods can be given the following options:
callback => sub { my ($data, $error) = @_; }
Do an async request using AnyEvent. $data contains unpacked and processed according
to request options data. $error contains a message string in case of error. Set up
"raise => 0" to use this option.
"Continuations"
"Select" methods can be given the following options:
return_fh => 1
The request does only send operation on network, and returns "{ fh => $IO_Handle,
continue => $code }" or false if send operation failed. $code reads data from
network, unpacks, processes according to options and returns it.
You should handle timeouts and retries manually (using select() call for example).
Usage example:
my $continuation = $box->Select(13,{ return_fh => 1 });
ok $continuation, "select/continuation";
my $rin = '';
vec($rin,$continuation->{fh}->fileno,1) = 1;
my $ein = $rin;
ok 0 <= select($rin,undef,$ein,2), "select/continuation/select";
my $res = $continuation->{continue}->();
use Data::Dumper;
is_deeply $res, [13, 'some_email@test.mail.ru', 1, 2, 3, 4, '123456789'], "select/continuation/result";
LongTuple
If "format" given to "new", or "unpack_format" given to "Call" ends with a star ("*") long
tuple is enabled. Last field or group of fields of "format" represent variable-length tail
of the tuple. "long_fields" option given to "new" will fold the tail into array of hashes.
$box->Insert(1,"2",3); #1
$box->Insert(3,"2",3,4,5); #2
$box->Insert(5,"2",3,4,5,6,7); #3
If we set up
format => "L&CL*",
fields => [qw/ a b c d /], # d is the folding field here
# no long_fields - no folding into hash
we'll get:
$result = $box->Select([1,2,3,4,5]);
$result = [
{ a => 1, b => "2", c => 3, d => [] }, #1
{ a => 3, b => "2", c => 3, d => [4,5] }, #2
{ a => 5, b => "2", c => 3, d => [4,5,6,7] }, #3
];
And if we set up
format => "L&C(LL)*",
fields => [qw/ a b c d /], # d is the folding field here
long_fields => [qw/ d1 d2 /],
we'll get:
$result = [
{ a => 1, b => "2", c => 3, d => [] }, #1
{ a => 3, b => "2", c => 3, d => [{d1=>4, d2=>5}] }, #2
{ a => 5, b => "2", c => 3, d => [{d1=>4, d2=>5}, {d1=>6, d2=>7}] }, #3
];
"UpdateMulti" can be given a field number in several ways:
$linear_index_int
$box->UpdateMulti(5, [ 5 => set => $val ]) #3: set 6 to $val
an arrayref of [$index_of_folded_subtuple_int, $long_field_name_str_or_index_int]
$box->UpdateMulti(5, [ [1,0] => set => $val ]) #3: set 6 to $val
$box->UpdateMulti(5, [ [1,'d1'] => set => $val ]) #3: set 6 to $val
utf8
Utf8 strings are supported very simply. When pushing any data to tarantool (with any
query, read or write), the utf8 flag is set off, so all data is pushed as bytestring. When
reading response, for fields marked a dollar sign "$" (see "new") (including such in
"LongTuple" tail) utf8 flag is set on. That's all. Validity is on your own.
