NAME

       Catalyst::Plugin::Cache::Store::FastMmap - DEPRECATED - FastMmap cache store for Catalyst::Plugin::Cache.

SYNOPSIS

	   # instead of using this plugin, you can now do this:

	   use Catalyst qw/
	       Cache
	   /;

	   __PACKAGE__->config( cache => {
	       backend => {
		   class => "Cache:FastMmap",
		   share_file => "/path/to/file",
		   cache_size => "16m",
	       },
	   });

STATUS

       This plugin is deprecated because Cache::FastMmap no longer needs to be wrapped to store plain values. It is still available on the CPAN
       for backwards compatibility and will still work with newer versions of Cache::FastMmap with a slight performance degredation.

DESCRIPTION

       This store plugin is a bit of a wrapper for Cache::FastMmap.

       While you could normally just configure with

	   backend => {
	       class => "Cache::FastMmap",
	       share_file => ...,
	   }

       Cache::FastMmap can't store plain values by default. This module ships with a subclass that will wrap all values in a scalar reference
       before storing.

       This store plugin will try to provide a default "share_file" as well, that won't clash with other apps.

CONFIGURATION

       See "CONFIGURATION" in Catalyst::Plugin::Cache for a general overview of cache plugin configuration.

       This plugin just takes a hash reference in the backend field and passes it on to Cache::FastMmap.

SEE ALSO

       Catalyst::Plugin::Cache, Cache::FastMmap.

NAME

       Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::FastMmap - FastMmap session storage backend.

SYNOPSIS

	   use Catalyst qw/Session Session::Store::FastMmap Session::State::Foo/;

	   MyApp->config(
	       'Plugin::Session' => {
		   expires => 3600,
		   storage => '/tmp/session'
	       },
	   );

	   # ... in an action:
	   $c->session->{foo} = 'bar'; # will be saved

DESCRIPTION

       "Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::FastMmap" is a fast session storage plugin for Catalyst that uses an mmap'ed file to act as a shared
       memory interprocess cache. It is based on Cache::FastMmap.

   METHODS
       get_session_data
       store_session_data
       delete_session_data
       delete_expired_sessions
	   These are implementations of the required methods for a store. See Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store.

       get_and_set_session_data
	   This is the optional method for atomic write semantics. See Catalyst::Plugin::Session::AtomicWrite.

       setup_session
	   Sets up the session cache file.

CAVEATS

       Very loaded sites with lots of data in the session hash may have old sessions expired prematurely, due to the LRU caching policy employed
       by Cache::FastMmap. To get around this you can increase the "cache_size" parameter, or switch session storage backends.	Cache::FastMmap
       defaults to around 5mb (89 * 64k).

       This is particularly inappropriate for use as a backend for e.g.  Catalyst::Plugin::Session::PerUser, for example.

       As Cache::FastMmap is not "thread-safe" (at least version 1.30 and before) therefore also this module does not work in multi-threaded
       environment.  It is "fork-safe", however keep in mind that on Win32 the perl "fork" call is implemented as an emulation via threads - that
       is the reason why you cannot use this store for example when running you catalyst application on Win32 platform with
       Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork engine.

CONFIGURATION

       These parameters are placed in the hash under the "Plugin::Session" key in the configuration hash.

       storage
	   Specifies the file to be used for the sharing of session data. The default value will use File::Spec to find the default tempdir, and
	   use a file named "MyApp_session_data", where "MyApp" is replaced with the appname.

	   Note that the file will be created with mode 0640, which means that it will only be writeable by processes running with the same uid as
	   the process that creates the file.  If this may be a problem, for example if you may try to debug the program as one user and run it as
	   another, specify a filename like "/tmp/session-$>", which includes the UID of the process in the filename.

       init_file
       cache_size
       unlink_on_exit
	   See the Cache::FastMmap documentation for the meaning of these keys. If these keys are not present Cache::FastMmap's defaults will be
	   used.
