Methods


abortCacheGeneration(
)
:
void
Aborts the current cache generation process.
Does so by rolling back the current transaction, which should be the .generating file lock


checkCacheGenerationTimeout(

:
void
Checks if the .generating file was changed, which would mean that generation timed out. If not timed out, refreshes the timestamp so that storage won't be stolen


delete(
)
:
void
Deletes specified file/directory.
If a directory specified it is deleted recursively.


endCacheGeneration(
$rename
=
true

:
void
Ends the cache generation started by startCacheGeneration().

processCache(
$retrieveCallback, $generateCallback

null, $ttl
=
null, $expiry
=
null, $extraData
=
null
)
:
void
Handles cache requests / write operations
Creates a single transaction out of the typical file operations for accessing caches. Caches are normally ready from the database or local file, if the entry does not exist or is expired then it generates the new cache data and stores it. This method takes care of these operations and handles the custom code by performing callbacks when needed.
The $retrieveCallback is used when the file contents can be used (ie. not re-generation) and is called when the file is ready locally. The function will be called with the file path as the first parameter, the mtime as the second and optionally $extraData as the third. The function must return the file contents or an instance of eZClusterFileFailure which can be used to tell the system that the retrieve data cannot be used after all.
$retrieveCallback can be set to null which makes the system go directly to the generation.
The $generateCallback is used when the file content is expired or does not exist, in this case the content must be re-generated and stored. The function will be called with the file path as the first parameter and optionally $extraData as the second. The function must return an array with information on the contents, the array consists of: - scope - The current scope of the file, is optional. - datatype - The current datatype of the file, is optional. - content - The file content, this can be any type except null. - binarydata - The binary data which is written to the file. - store - Whether content or binarydata should be stored to the file, if false it will simply return the data. Optional, by default it is true. Note: Set $generateCallback to false to disable generation callback. Note: Set $generateCallback to null to tell the function to perform a write lock but not do any generation, the generation must done be done by the caller by calling @see storeCache().
Either content or binarydata must be supplied, if not an error is issued and it returns null.
If content is set it will be used as the return value of this function, if not it will return the binary data. If binarydata is set it will be used as the binary data for the file, if not it will perform a var_export on content and use that as the binary data.
For convenience the $generateCallback function can return a string which will be considered as the binary data for the file and returned as the content.
For controlling how long a cache entry can be used the parameters

processFile(
$callback, $expiry
=
false, $extraData
=
null
)
:
void
Provides access to the file contents by downloading the file locally and calling $callback with the local filename. The callback can then process the contents and return the data in the same way as in processCache().
Downloading is only done once so the local copy is kept, while updates to the remote DB entry is synced with the local one.
The parameters $expiry and $extraData is the same as for processCache().
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
$callback | ||
$expiry | ||
$extraData |
- Note
- Unlike processCache() this returns null if the file cannot be accessed.

- \self::processCache()
