Memcached::append
(PECL memcached >= 0.1.0)
Memcached::append — Append data to an existing item
Description
$key, string $value): bool
Memcached::append() appends the given
value string to the value of an existing item. The
reason that value is forced to be a string is
that appending mixed types is not well-defined.
Note:
If the
Memcached::OPT_COMPRESSIONis enabled, the operation will fail and a warning will be issued, because appending compressed data to a value that is potentially already compressed is not possible.
Parameters
-
key -
The key under which to store the value.
-
value -
The string to append.
Return Values
Returns true on success or false on failure.
The Memcached::getResultCode() will return
Memcached::RES_NOTSTORED if the key does not exist.
Examples
Example #1 Memcached::append() example
<?php
$m = new Memcached();
$m->addServer('localhost', 11211);
$m->setOption(Memcached::OPT_COMPRESSION, false);
$m->set('foo', 'abc');
$m->append('foo', 'def');
var_dump($m->get('foo'));
?>
The above example will output:
string(6) "abcdef"
