How to set TTL (Time to Live) for a specific couchbase document using spring-data-couchbase?
I know there is way to set expiry time using Document notation as follows
@Document(expiry = 10)
http://docs.spring.io/spring-data/couchbase/docs/1.1.1.RELEASE/reference/html/couchbase.entity.html
It will set TTL for all the documents save through the Entity class.
But it seems there is way to set expiration(TTL) time for a specific document
"Get and touch: Fetch a specified document and update the document expiration."
mentioned in
http://docs.couchbase.com/developer/dev-guide-3.0/read-write.html
How can I achieve above functionality through spring-data-couchbase
Even If I can achieve the functionality using Java SDK, would be fine.
Any help.....
Using Spring data couchbase, this is a simple way you can configure ttl per document.
public class CouchbaseConfig extends AbstractCouchbaseConfiguration {
@Override
protected List<String> bootstrapHosts() {
return Arrays.asList("localhost");
}
@Override
protected String getBucketName() {
return "default";
}
@Override
protected String getBucketPassword() {
return "password1";
}
@Bean
public MappingCouchbaseConverter mappingCouchbaseConverter() throws Exception {
MappingCouchbaseConverter converter = new ExpiringDocumentCouchbaseConverter(couchbaseMappingContext());
converter.setCustomConversions(customConversions());
return converter;
}
class ExpiringDocumentCouchbaseConverter extends MappingCouchbaseConverter {
/**
* Create a new {@link MappingCouchbaseConverter}.
*
* @param mappingContext the mapping context to use.
*/
public ExpiringDocumentCouchbaseConverter(MappingContext<? extends CouchbasePersistentEntity<?>, CouchbasePersistentProperty> mappingContext) {
super(mappingContext);
}
// Setting custom TTL on documents.
@Override
public void write(final Object source, final CouchbaseDocument target) {
super.write(source, target);
if (source instanceof ClassContainingTTL) {
target.setExpiration(((ClassContainingTTL) source).getTimeToLive());
}
}
}
}
Using Spring-Data-Couchbase, you cannot set a TTL on a particular instance. Inserting (mutating) and setting the TTL in one go would be quite complicated given the transcoding steps that are hidden away in the CouchbaseTemplate
save
method.
However, if what you want to do is just update the TTL of an already persisted document (which is what getAndTouch
does), there is a way that doesn't involve any transcoding and so can be applied easily:
- From the
CouchbaseTemplate
, get access to the underlying SDK client via getCouchbaseClient()
(note for now sdc is built on top of the previous generation of SDK, 1.4.x
, but there'll be a preview of sdc-2.0 soon ;) )
- Using the SDK, perform a
touch
operation on the document's ID, give it the new TTL
- The
touch()
method returns an OperationFuture
(it is async), so make sure to either block on it or consider the touch done only if notified so in the callback.
