# Suo [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/nickelser/suo.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/nickelser/suo) [![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/suo.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/rb/suo)
:lock: Distributed semaphores using Memcached or Redis in Ruby.
Suo provides a very performant distributed lock solution using Compare-And-Set (`CAS`) commands in Memcached, and `WATCH/MULTI` in Redis.
## Installation
Add this line to your applications Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'suo'
```
## Usage
### Basic
```ruby
# Memcached
suo = Suo::Client::Memcached.new(connection: "127.0.0.1:11211")
# Redis
suo = Suo::Client::Redis.new(connection: {host: "10.0.1.1"})
# Pre-existing client
suo = Suo::Client::Memcached.new(client: some_dalli_client)
suo.lock("some_key") do
# critical code here
@puppies.pet!
end
2.times do
Thread.new do
# second argument is the number of resources - so this will run twice
suo.lock("other_key", 2, timeout: 0.5) { puts "Will run twice!" }
end
end
```
## TODO
- better stale key handling (refresh blocks)
