twisted.protocols.memcache.MemCacheProtocol : API documentation

MemCache protocol: connect to a memcached server to store/retrieve values.

Instance Variables	persistentTimeOut	the timeout period used to wait for a response. (type: `int` )
	_current	current list of requests waiting for an answer from the server. (type: `deque` of `Command` )
	_lenExpected	amount of data expected in raw mode, when reading for a value. (type: `int` )
	_getBuffer	current buffer of data, used to store temporary data when reading in raw mode. (type: `list` )
	_bufferLength	the total amount of bytes in `_getBuffer`. (type: `int` )
	_disconnected	indicate if the connectionLost has been called or not. (type: `bool` )

Method	__init__	Create the protocol.
Method	timeoutConnection	Close the connection in case of timeout.
Method	connectionLost	Cause any outstanding commands to fail.
Method	sendLine	Override sendLine to add a timeout to response.
Method	rawDataReceived	Collect data for a get.
Method	cmd_STORED	Manage a success response to a set operation.
Method	cmd_NOT_STORED	Manage a specific 'not stored' response to a set operation: this is not an error, but some condition wasn't met.
Method	cmd_END	This the end token to a get or a stat operation.
Method	cmd_NOT_FOUND	Manage error response for incr/decr/delete.
Method	cmd_VALUE	Prepare the reading a value after a get.
Method	cmd_STAT	Reception of one stat line.
Method	cmd_VERSION	Read version token.
Method	cmd_ERROR	An non-existent command has been sent.
Method	cmd_CLIENT_ERROR	An invalid input as been sent.
Method	cmd_SERVER_ERROR	An error has happened server-side.

Inherited from LineReceiver:

Method	clearLineBuffer	Clear buffered data.
Method	dataReceived	Protocol.dataReceived. Translates bytes into lines, and calls lineReceived (or rawDataReceived, depending on mode.)
Method	setLineMode	Sets the line-mode of this receiver.
Method	setRawMode	Sets the raw mode of this receiver. Further data received will be sent to rawDataReceived rather than lineReceived.
Method	lineLengthExceeded	Called when the maximum line length has been reached. Override if it needs to be dealt with in some special way.

Inherited from BaseProtocol (via LineReceiver, Protocol):

Method	makeConnection	Make a connection to a transport and a server.
Method	connectionMade	Called when a connection is made.

	withIdentifier	If set to `True`, retrieve the identifiers along with the values and the flags. (type: `bool` )
Returns	A deferred that will fire with a dictionary with the elements of `keys` as keys and the tuples (flags, value) as values if `withIdentifier` is `False`, or (flags, cas identifier, value) if `True`. If the server indicates there is no value associated with `key`, the returned values will be `None` and the returned flags will be `0`. (type: `Deferred` )
