init(self, params)
(Constructor)

source code

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Overrides: object.__init__: (inherited documentation)

add(self, key, value, timeout=None)

source code

Set a value in the cache if the key does not already exist. If timeout is given, that timeout will be used for the key; otherwise the default cache timeout will be used.

get(self, key, default=None)

source code

Fetch a given key from the cache. If the key does not exist, return default, which itself defaults to None.

set(self, key, value, timeout=None)

source code

Set a value in the cache. If timeout is given, that timeout will be used for the key; otherwise the default cache timeout will be used.

get_many(self, keys)

source code

Fetch a bunch of keys from the cache. For certain backends (memcached, pgsql) this can be *much* faster when fetching multiple values.

Returns a dict mapping each key in keys to its value. If the given key is missing, it will be missing from the response dict.
