MemcacheSASL
============

[](#memcachesasl)

A pure PHP Memcache client with [binary protocol](http://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/BinaryProtocolRevamped)and [SASL](http://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/SASLAuthProtocol)support.

It aims to be compatible with the PHP Memcached class. You can find documentation on the PHP Memcached class [here](http://php.net/manual/en/class.memcached.php). Not all features are supported at this time.

Usage example
-------------

[](#usage-example)

```
include('MemcacheSASL.php');

/* connect to a server */
$m = new MemcacheSASL;
$m->addServer('127.0.0.1', '11211');

/* set timeout to 2 second */
$m->setOption(MemcacheSASL::OPT_SEND_TIMEOUT, 2000000);
$m->setOption(MemcacheSASL::OPT_RECV_TIMEOUT, 2000000);

/* set SASL username and password */
$m->setSaslAuthData('username', 'password');

/* perform some operations */
var_dump($m->add('test', '123'));
$m->delete('test');
```

- Support for timeouts on operations (connections and requests).
- Fixed `increment` and `decrement` operations.
- Support for the PHP Composer package manager.
- Support `setOptions` method.
