NAME
FileCache - keep more files open than the system permits SYNOPSIS
no strict 'refs'; use FileCache; # or use FileCache maxopen => 16; cacheout $mode, $path; # or cacheout $path; print $path @data; $fh = cacheout $mode, $path; # or $fh = cacheout $path; print $fh @data; DESCRIPTION
The "cacheout" function will make sure that there's a filehandle open for reading or writing available as the pathname you give it. It automatically closes and re-opens files if you exceed your system's maximum number of file descriptors, or the suggested maximum maxopen. cacheout EXPR The 1-argument form of cacheout will open a file for writing ('>') on it's first use, and appending ('>>') thereafter. Returns EXPR on success for convenience. You may neglect the return value and manipulate EXPR as the filehandle directly if you prefer. cacheout MODE, EXPR The 2-argument form of cacheout will use the supplied mode for the initial and subsequent openings. Most valid modes for 3-argument "open" are supported namely; '>', '+>', '<', '<+', '>>', '|-' and '-|' To pass supplemental arguments to a program opened with '|-' or '-|' append them to the command string as you would system EXPR. Returns EXPR on success for convenience. You may neglect the return value and manipulate EXPR as the filehandle directly if you prefer. CAVEATS
While it is permissible to "close" a FileCache managed file, do not do so if you are calling "FileCache::cacheout" from a package other than which it was imported, or with another module which overrides "close". If you must, use "FileCache::cacheout_close". Although FileCache can be used with piped opens ('-|' or '|-') doing so is strongly discouraged. If FileCache finds it necessary to close and then reopen a pipe, the command at the far end of the pipe will be reexecuted - the results of performing IO on FileCache'd pipes is unlikely to be what you expect. The ability to use FileCache on pipes may be removed in a future release. FileCache does not store the current file offset if it finds it necessary to close a file. When the file is reopened, the offset will be as specified by the original "open" file mode. This could be construed to be a bug. The module functionality relies on symbolic references, so things will break under 'use strict' unless 'no strict "refs"' is also specified. BUGS
sys/param.h lies with its "NOFILE" define on some systems, so you may have to set maxopen yourself. perl v5.18.2 2014-01-06 FileCache(3pm)

NAME
Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::File - File storage backend for session data. SYNOPSIS
use Catalyst qw/Session Session::Store::File Session::State::Foo/; MyApp->config->{'Plugin::Session'} = { storage => '/tmp/session' }; # ... in an action: $c->session->{foo} = 'bar'; # will be saved DESCRIPTION
"Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::File" is an easy to use storage plugin for Catalyst that uses an simple file to act as a shared memory interprocess cache. It is based on "Cache::FileCache". METHODS get_session_data store_session_data delete_session_data delete_expired_sessions These are implementations of the required methods for a store. See Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store. setup_session Sets up the session cache file. CONFIGURATION
These parameters are placed in the hash under the "Plugin::Session" key in the configuration hash. storage Specifies the directory root to be used for the sharing of session data. The default value will use File::Spec to find the default tempdir, and use a file named "MyApp/session/data", where "MyApp" is replaced with the appname. Note that the file will be created with mode 0640, which means that it will only be writeable by processes running with the same uid as the process that creates the file. If this may be a problem, for example if you may try to debug the program as one user and run it as another, specify a directory like "/tmp/session-$>", which includes the UID of the process in the filename. relative Makes the storage path relative to $c-path_to> namespace The namespace associated with this cache. Defaults to an empty string if not explicitly set. If set, the session data will be stored in a directory called "MyApp/session/data/<namespace">. cache_depth The number of subdirectories deep to session object item. This should be large enough that no session directory has more than a few hundred objects. Defaults to 3 unless explicitly set. directory_umask The directories in the session on the filesystem should be globally writable to allow for multiple users. While this is a potential security concern, the actual cache entries are written with the user's umask, thus reducing the risk of cache poisoning. If you desire it to only be user writable, set the 'directory_umask' option to '077' or similar. Defaults to '000' unless explicitly set. SEE ALSO
