This is a memcached binary protocol toolkit in [go][go].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It provides client and server functionality as well as a little sample
|
||
|
|
server showing how I might make a server if I valued purity over
|
||
|
|
performance.

## Server Design

The basic design can be seen in [gocache]. A [storage
|
||
|
|
server][storage] is run as a goroutine that receives a `MCRequest` on
|
||
|
|
a channel, and then issues an `MCResponse` to a channel contained
|
||
|
|
within the request.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each connection is a separate goroutine, of course, and is responsible
|
||
|
|
for all IO for that connection until the connection drops or the
|
||
|
|
`dataServer` decides it's stupid and sends a fatal response back over
|
||
|
|
the channel.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There is currently no work at all in making the thing perform (there
|
||
|
|
are specific areas I know need work). This is just my attempt to
|
||
|
|
learn the language somewhat.
