__init__

MemcachedCache.__init__(use_pickle: bool = None, mcache_instance: pylibmc.client.Client = None, *args, **kwargs)[source]

MemcachedCache by default uses the global Memcached instance from privex.helpers.plugin.

It’s recommended to use privex.helpers.plugin.configure_memcached() if you need to change any Memcached settings, as this will adjust the global settings and re-instantiate the global instance if required.

Alternatively, you may pass an instance of pylibmc.Client as mcache_instance, then that will be used instead of the global instance from get_memcached()

Parameters

  • use_pickle (bool) – (Default: True) Use the built-in pickle to serialise values before storing in Memcached, and un-serialise when loading from Memcached

  • mcache_instance (pylibmc.Client) – If this isn’t None / False, then this Memcached instance will be used instead of the global one from get_memcached()

  • enter_reconnect (bool) – Pass enter_reconnect=False to disable calling reconnect() when entering this cache adapter as a context manager (__aenter__())

  • exit_close (bool) – Pass exit_close=False to disable calling close() when exiting this cache adapter as a context manager (__aexit__())
