gRPC-cache

In memory cache, using gRPC

Contents

About

Go in memory cache using gRPC to generate API. Functionalities include

• Adding/Replacing key/value
• Getting value using a key
• Getting all keys
• Deleting a particular key
• Deleting all keys
• Concurrency safe and on client side calls can be made using goroutines

Requirements

• Golang min-version(1.11)
• make
• protobuf

Getting Started

Once you've cloned this repo, run these commands in this directory:

# Only needed the first time:
$ make build

# Then run to start server
$ ./server-cache --help

Usage of ./server-cache:
  -addr string
      Address on which you want to run server (default ":5001")
  -cln int
      Cleanup interval duration of expired cache is 5 min (default 5)
  -exp int
      Default expiration duration of cache is 10 min (default 10)

# To use client
$ ./client-cache --help

Usage of ./client-cache:
  -addr string
      Address on which you want to run server (default ":5001")

Usage

You can run server in 2 ways either using local setup or docker.

Local

• Start your server ./server-cache or make server
• ./server-cache -addr=":5001" to run server on port 5001

Docker

make docker
make dockerServer

After running the server, start your client ./client-cache or make client in a different terminal

• ./client-cache -addr=":5001" is server is running running on port 5001

API

Proto syntax proto3 is used. You can find the proto file here

Add

This is used to add key/value to the cache

func (c Cache) Add(ctx context.Context, item *api.Item) (*api.Item, error)

Get

This is used to get key value pair for a particular key

func (c Cache) Get(ctx context.Context, args *api.GetKey) (*api.Item, error)

GetAllItems

Used to get all key value pairs

func (c Cache) GetAllItems(ctx context.Context, in *empty.Empty) (*api.AllItems, error)

DeleteKey

Used to delete item by a particular key from the cache

func (c Cache) DeleteKey(ctx context.Context, args *api.GetKey) (*api.Success, error)

DeleteAll

Used to clear the whole cache

func (c Cache) DeleteAll(ctx context.Context, in *empty.Empty) (*api.Success, error)

Testing

After running make build just run make test to run the tests. It has coverage of 91.2%
