It allows you to do anything you could do through C, such as +get records, update records, or delete records. It also allows setting +of various NASTD connection options, as you would through C. + +=head2 Opening a sphincter + +To do any work with NASTD at all, you must first open a sphincter, +through which you talk to your NASNASTole. This is fairly +straightforward: just call C and save the +returned handle. When you're done with the connection to your NAST, call +C to terminate it and free all memory of it. + +You may specify an optional argument, which points to the unix domain +socket name that you wish to use. By default, this is set to +"/tmp/nastd.sock". + +When an error occurs in C, you cannot call +C since there's no sphincter with which to call it. +Instead, an error message will be printed on B for you to +diagnose, and the return value will be undefined. + +=head2 Checking errors + +There are many places during an NASTD session that errors can be +generated. To check for the presense of an error, call C +with the sphincter returned from C. This will +return an error code, which is defined below under B. + +If you would rather a printable string be returned, you can call +C with an open sphincter, and a printable string will be +returned. + +=head2 Performing a query + +Once you have an open sphincter, obtained via C, +you can start to query it with C, C, +C, and C. + +The B<$key> is just that, a case-sensitive key for the database you're +querying. It's function depends on which query function you're using: + + Function Key Meaning + -------- ----------- + nast_add() Add this key to NASTD, with default values. + nast_del() Delete this key from NASTD. + nast_get() Return values associated with this key. + nast_upd() Update this key in NASTD with my values. + +All four of these functions return a status. If everything went okay, +then 0 is returned, otherwise -1 is returned, and you should check for +an error with C. + +In the case of C, C, and C all you +need to do is call the query function and check for errors. If there +are no errors, then everything went fine. + +However, in the case of C, you probably want the values +nastociated with the query you made. To get these values, you have to +call C, which returns an array of values. + +=head2 Updating the database via C + +C works like the other query functions, except that in +addition to the key, you also need to pass an array of values. The +array needs to have the same number of elements as the NASTD database +has, and the elements should be in the same order as that specified in +the special key, "B<_VALUES_>" (see B, +below). + +If the key you are trying to update does not exist, the server creates +it and gives it the values you specified in your value array. For this +reason C is preferable to C. In fact, +C may not exist very much longer. + +=head2 Key concepts and values + +It is recommended that before you try to do any real work with a +particular NASTD suppository, you first investigate the contents of the +special keys B<_KEY_> and B<_VALUES_>. You can do a regular query on +them using C followed by +C to investigate their columns. + + Special Key Value Meaning + ----------- ------------- + _KEY_ The type of key the database is keyed on, + e.g., "username" would mean this database + is a username -> _VALUES_ mapping. + _VALUES_ The data being stored for every key in + the database. The order here is important, + as it's the same order that you'll get + when calling nast_get_result(). + _DELIM_ Only used internally to the NASTD server. + +As noted above, the B<_VALUES_> key shows what data you can find in the +NASTD database, as well as the order it is returned in. This is why you +should investigate this key before trying to do any real work with +NASTD. You have to know what columns mean what values for any real +decision making to be done. + +=head2 Server options + +In order to fine-tune server performance and behaviour, it is possible +to set various server-side options through the C and +C APIs. + +The interface is a bit clumsy at the low level - you pass in an array +to C which has the options in a specific order, and +you get an array back from C which contains the +options in a specific order. + +It is recommended that before you call C that you +first obtain the default options from the server through +C and manipulate the values you care about. Then +pass that array back to C. + +The options you can set are as follows (remember to keep this order!): + + Index C Option Name Meaning (type) + ----- ------------- -------------- + 0 use_qcache Whether or not to use the + in-memory query cache. (BOOL) + 1 use_localdb Whether or not to use the on-disk + database. (BOOL) + 2 fallthrough_async Whether or not to use an + asynchronous API for fallthrough + queries. (BOOL) + 3 always_fallthrough Whether or not to always check + the fallthrough cache over the + local ones. Setting this to 1 + is the same as setting use_qcache + and use_localdb to 0. (BOOL) + 4 fail_once Whether or not to check a query + in the local and in-memory storage + once, and fail if the result isn't + found the first time, then defer + the next query to the fallthrough + queue. (BOOL) + 5 no_fallthrough Disable fallthrough queriers to + MySQL server. (BOOL) + +=head1 STATISTICS + +The C function is used to gather server statistics. First +you call C, which grabs the statistics and stores them as +a result. Then you call C as you would for a query. + +The statistics come back in a human readable array, suitable for printing. + +=head1 CONSTANTS + +The only constants returned are via C: + + Error Code Meaning + ---------- ------- + NAST_OK No errors occured. + NAST_SERVER_GONE The connection to the server no longer + exists. + NAST_NOMEM The client has run out of memory performing + an operation. + NAST_UNKNOWN_RESPONSE The server sent us a response we can't + understand. + NAST_TIMEDOUT The soft timeout on a query has elapsed. + This normally means the server is a bit + bogged down, and the query should be + retried. + NAST_UNKNOWN_OPT The server sent us an unknown option or + we tried to set an unknown option. + NAST_SERVER_ERR Generic server side error. Check + nast_errmsg() for more details. + +=head1 SAMPLE PROGRAM + + #!/usr/bin/env perl + + use NASTD; + + $nasthole = &NASTD::nast_sphincter_new(); + if (!defined($nasthole)) { + # Error message already printed. + exit(1); + } + + # Don't fallthrough to MySQL for this query. + # First we get the default options from the server, then tweak + # the ones we care about, and update the server with our options. + @options = &NASTD::nast_options_get($nasthole); + if (!defined(@options)) { + print STDERR "Couldn't get options: " . + &NASTD::nast_errmsg($nasthole) .
