Support & Security

Support for this extension must be posted to the main Phpfastcache repository.

Composer installation:

composer install phpfastcache/couchbasev4-extension

⚠️ This extension requires:

1️⃣ The PHP Couchbase extension 4.x at least

2️⃣ The composer Couchbase/Couchbase library 4.x at least

⚠️ This extension optionally requires:

1️⃣ The PHP Posix extension is needed use pcntl_fork() for process forking.

To fork a php process correctly you will need to tell the Couchbase diver to prepare for the fork.

⚠️ WARNING You must call the drivers Phpfastcache\Drivers\Couchbasev4\Driver::prepareToFork() just before the pcntl_fork() call or the child process will lock up and then call handleNotifyFork() to avoid further errors.

Example

try {
    \Phpfastcache\Drivers\Couchbasev4\Driver::prepareToFork();
    $pid = pcntl_fork();
    \Phpfastcache\Drivers\Couchbasev4\Driver::handleNotifyFork();
    if ($pid == -1) {
        // There was a problem with forking the process
    } else if ($pid) {
        // continue parent process operations
    } else {
        // continue child process operations
    }
} catch (PhpfastcacheDriverCheckException) {
    // the driver did not allow you to fork the process
}

2️⃣ Also the PHP Pcntl if you plan to contribute to this project and run the tests before pushing your Merge Request.
