Setup
To use the cacheing service add the following to your py file.
try: import StorageServer except: import storageserverdummy as StorageServer cache = StorageServer.StorageServer() cache.table_name = "PluginName" # Name of your plugni.
You can now access the caching service through the "cache" variable.
cacheFunction(self, funct = False, *args)
Caching function results for one hour.
The function being cached must return a tupple ( function_return, status), a status of 200 means the result is ok and should be cached. Any other value and the function result will be returned, but not cached.
def pi_count(self): def arccot(x, unity): sum = xpower = unity // x n = 3 sign = -1 while 1: xpower = xpower // (x*x) term = xpower // n if not term: break sum += sign * term sign = -sign n += 2 return sum digits = 40 unity = 10**(digits + 10) pi = 4 * (4*arccot(5, unity) - arccot(239, unity)) return (pi // 10**10, 200) result = cache.cacheFunction(pi_count) # This will call the pi_count function, save the result in the cache, and return the result. time.sleep(300) result = cache.cacheFunction(pi_count) # This will return the cached result time.sleep(3600) result = cache.cacheFunction(pi_count) # This will again call pi_count since the result is now considered stale.
