"""client module for memcached (memory cache daemon)

Overview
========

See U{the MemCached homepage<http://www.danga.com/memcached>} for more
about memcached.

Usage summary
=============

This should give you a feel for how this module operates::

    import memcache
    mc = memcache.Client(['127.0.0.1:11211'], debug=0)

    mc.set("some_key", "Some value")
    value = mc.get("some_key")

    mc.set("another_key", 3)
    mc.delete("another_key")

    mc.set("key", "1") # note that the key used for incr/decr must be
                       # a string.
    mc.incr("key")
    mc.decr("key")

The standard way to use memcache with a database is like this:

    key = derive_key(obj)
    obj = mc.get(key)
    if not obj:
        obj = backend_api.get(...)
        mc.set(key, obj)

    # we now have obj, and future passes through this code
    # will use the object from the cache.

Detailed Documentation
======================

More detailed documentation is available in the L{Client} class.

    In all cases where a key is used, the key can be either:
        1. A simple hashable type (string, integer, etc.).
        2. A tuple of C{(hashvalue, key)}.  This is useful if you want
        to avoid making this module calculate a hash value.  You may
        prefer, for example, to keep all of a given user's objects on
        the same memcache server, so you could use the user's unique
        id as the hash value.

        This method is recommended over regular L{set} as it lowers
        the number of total packets flying around your network,

            memcached protocol docs section "Storage Commands" for

        @param key_prefix: Optional string to prepend to each key when

            True

            Causes key 'subspace_key1' and 'subspace_key2' to be
            set. Useful in conjunction with a higher-level layer which
            applies namespaces to data in memcache.  In this case, the
            return result would be the list of notset original keys,
            prefix not applied.

        @param min_compress_len: The threshold length to kick in

            length of the string is measured, else if the value is an

            measured. If the resulting attempt at compression yeilds a
            larger string than the input, then it is discarded. For
            backwards compatability, this parameter defaults to 0,
            indicating don't ever try to compress.

        This method is recommended over regular L{get} as it lowers
        the number of total packets flying around your network,
        reducing total latency, since your app doesn't have to wait
        for each round-trip of L{get} before sending the next one.

        See also L{set_multi}.

        prefix.

        @return: A dictionary of key/value pairs that were
