Redis Cache and ActiveRecord for Yii 2
|
||
|
======================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This extension provides the [redis](http://redis.io/) key-value store support for the Yii2 framework.
|
||
|
It includes a `Cache` class and implents the `ActiveRecord` pattern that allows you to store active
|
||
|
records in redis.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To use this extension, you have to configure the Connection class in your application configuration:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```php
|
||
|
return [
|
||
|
//....
|
||
|
'components' => [
|
||
|
'redis' => [
|
||
|
'class' => 'yii\redis\Connection',
|
||
|
'hostname' => 'localhost',
|
||
|
'port' => 6379,
|
||
|
'database' => 0,
|
||
|
],
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
];
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
To use the `Cache` component, you also have to configure the `cache` component to be `yii\redis\Cache`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```php
|
||
|
return [
|
||
|
//....
|
||
|
'components' => [
|
||
|
// ...
|
||
|
'cache' => [
|
||
|
'class' => 'yii\redis\Cache',
|
||
|
],
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
];
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installation
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Either run
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
php composer.phar require yiisoft/yii2-redis "*"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
or add
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
"yiisoft/yii2-redis": "*"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
to the require section of your composer.json.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using the redis ActiveRecord
|
||
|
----------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
For general information on how to use yii's ActiveRecord please refer to the [guide](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/docs/guide/active-record.md).
|
||
|
|
||
|
For defining a redis ActiveRecord class your record class needs to extend from `yii\redis\ActiveRecord` and
|
||
|
implement at least the `attributes()` method to define the attributes of the record.
|
||
|
A primary key can be defined via [[primaryKey()]] which defaults to `id` if not specified.
|
||
|
The primaryKey needs to be part of the attributes so make sure you have an `id` attribute defined if you do
|
||
|
not specify your own primary key.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following is an example model called `Customer`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```php
|
||
|
class Customer extends \yii\redis\ActiveRecord
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
public function attributes()
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
return ['id', 'name', 'address', 'registration_date'];
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The general usage of redis ActiveRecord is very similar to the database ActiveRecord as described in the
|
||
|
[guide](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/docs/guide/active-record.md).
|
||
|
It supports the same interface and features except the following limitations:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- As redis does not support SQL the query API is limited to the following methods:
|
||
|
`where()`, `limit()`, `offset()`, `orderBy()` and `indexBy()`.
|
||
|
(orderBy() is not yet implemented: [#1305](https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/issues/1305))
|
||
|
- `via`-relations can not be defined via a table as there are not tables in redis. You can only define relations via other records.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is also possible to define relations from redis ActiveRecords to normal ActiveRecord classes and vice versa.
