Detailed Description

Adjust tunables for the client.

The constants in this file are used to control the behavior of the library. All of the operations above may be passed as the cmd parameter to the lcb_cntl() function, thus:

char something;
lcb_error_t rv;
rv = lcb_cntl(instance, LCB_CNTL_GET, LCB_CNTL_FOO, &something);

will retrieve the setting of LCB_CNTL_FOO into something.

You may also use the lcb_cntl_string() function, which operates on strings and can set various configuration properties fairly simply. Note however that string names are subject to change, and not all configuration directives have a string alias:

rv = lcb_cntl_string("operation_timeout", "5.0");

Of the commands listed below, some will be read-only (i.e. you may only read the setting using the LCB_CNTL_GET mode), some will be write-only (i.e. you may only modify the setting, and use LCB_CNTL_SET for the mode) and some will be both readable and writable.

Along the documentation of each specific command, there is a table displaying the modes supported and the expected pointer type to be passed as the arg value into lcb_cntl(). Note that some read-write commands require different pointer types depending on whether the mode is retrieval or storage.

Timeout Settings

Timeout settings control how long the library will wait for a certain event before proceeding to the next course of action (which may either be to try a different operation or fail the current one, depending on the specific timeout).

Timeouts are specified in microseconds stored within an lcb_U32.

Note that timeouts in libcouchbase are implemented via an event loop scheduler. As such their accuracy and promptness is limited by how often the event loop is invoked and how much wall time is spent in each of their handlers. Specifically if you issue long running blocking calls within any of the handlers (and this means any of the library's callbacks) then the timeout accuracy will be impacted.

Further behavior is dependent on the event loop plugin itself and how it schedules timeouts.

Configuration Stability Attributes: Configuration parameters are still subject to the API classification used in Interface Attributes. For deprecated control commands, lcb_cntl() will either perform the operation, or consider it a no-op, or return an error code.

#define LCB_CNTL_OP_TIMEOUT

Operation Timeout.

The operation timeout is the maximum amount of time the library will wait for an operation to receive a response before invoking its callback with a failure status.

An operation may timeout if:

A server is taking too long to respond
An updated cluster configuration has not been promptly received

#define LCB_CNTL_CONFIG_CACHE_LOADED

Determine if file-based configuration has been loaded.

If the configuration cache is in use, the argument pointer will be set to a true value. If the configuration cache was not used, the argument pointer will be set to false.

A false value may indicates that the client will need to load the configuration from the network. This may be caused by the following:

The configuration cache did not exist or was empty
The configuration cache contained stale information

#define LCB_CNTL_FORCE_SASL_MECH

Force a specific SASL mechanism.

Force a specific SASL mechanism to use for authentication. This can allow a user to ensure a certain level of security and have the connection fail if the desired mechanism is not available.

When setting this value, the arg parameter shall be a NUL-terminated string or a NULL pointer (to unset). When retrieving this value, the parameter shall be set to a char **. Note that this value (in LCB_CNTL_GET) is valid only until the next call to a libcouchbase API, after which it may have been freed.

#define LCB_CNTL_CONFDELAY_THRESH

Refresh Throttling.

Modify the amount of time (in microseconds) before the LCB_CNTL_CONFERRTHRESH will forcefully be set to its maximum number forcing a configuration refresh.

Note that if you expect a high number of timeouts in your operations, you should set this to a high number (along with CONFERRTHRESH). If you are using the default timeout setting, then this value is likely optimal.

#define LCB_CNTL_CONFIG_NODE_TIMEOUT

Per-node configuration timeout.

The per-node configuration timeout sets the amount of time to wait for each node within the bootstrap/configuration process. This interval is a subset of the LCB_CNTL_CONFIGURATION_TIMEOUT option mentioned above and is intended to ensure that the bootstrap process does not wait too long for a given node. Nodes that are physically offline may never respond and it may take a long time until they are detected as being offline. See CCBC-261 and CCBC-313 for more reasons.

Note: the CONFIGURATION_TIMEOUT should be higher than this number. No check is made to ensure that this is the case, however.

Committed:

#define LCB_CNTL_HTCONFIG_IDLE_TIMEOUT

Idling/Persistence for HTTP bootstrap.

By default the behavior of the library for HTTP bootstrap is to keep the stream open at all times (opening a new stream on a different host if the existing one is broken) in order to proactively receive configuration updates.

The default value for this setting is -1. Changing this to another number invokes the following semantics:

The configuration stream is not kept alive indefinitely. It is kept open for the number of seconds specified in this setting. The socket is closed after a period of inactivity (indicated by this setting).
If the stream is broken (and no current refresh was requested by the client) then a new stream is not opened.

#define LCB_CNTL_CONFIGCACHE

file used for the configuration cache.

The configuration cache allows to bootstrap from a cluster without using the initial bootstrap connection, considerably reducing latency. If the file passed does not exist, the normal bootstrap process is performed and the file is written to with the current information.

Note: The leading directories for the file must exist, otherwise the file will never be created.; Configuration cache is not supported for memcached buckets

#define LCB_CNTL_SSL_MODE

Get SSL Mode.

Retrieve the SSL mode currently in use by the library. This is a read-only setting. To set the SSL mode at the library, specify the appropriate values within the connection string. See lcb_create_st3 for details.

	)

Create a retry setting value.

Parameters

mode	the mode to set (

See also: lcb_RETRYMODEOPTS)

Parameters

policy the policy determining which commands should be retried (

See also: lcb_RETRYCMDOPTS)

Returns: a value which can be assigned to an lcb_U32 and passed to the LCB_CNTL_RETRYMODE setting

#define LCB_CNTL_RETRYMODE

Set retry policies.

Stability

Volatile:

This function sets the retry behavior. The retry behavior is the action the library should take when a command has failed because of a failure which may be a result of environmental and/or topology issues. In such cases it may be possible to retry the command internally and have it succeed a second time without propagating an error back to the application.

The behavior consists of a mode and command selectors. The command selector indicates which commands should be retried (and which should be propagated up to the user) whereas the mode indicates under which circumstances should the command policy be used.

Disable retries anywhere:

for (int ii = 0; ii < LCB_RETRY_ON_MAX; ++ii) {
  lcb_U32 val = LCB_RETRYOPT_CREATE(ii, LCB_RETRY_CMDS_NONE);
  lcb_error_t err = lcb_cntl(instance, LCB_CNTL_SET, LCB_CNTL_RETRYMODE, &val);
}

Only retry simple GET operations when retry is needed because of topology changes:

lcb_U32 val = LCB_RETRYOPT_CREATE(LCB_RETRY_ON_TOPOCHANGE, LCB_RETRY_CMDS_GET);

lcb_cntl(instance, LCB_CNTL_SET, LCB_CNTL_RETRYMODE, &val);

Determine the behavior of the library when a NOT_MY_VBUCKET is received:

lcb_U32 val = LCB_RETRYOPT_CREATE(LCB_RETRY_ON_VBMAPERR, 0);
lcb_cntl(instance, LCB_CNTL_GET, LCB_CNTL_RETRYMODE, &val);
lcb_U32 policy = LCB_RETRYOPT_GETPOLICY(val);

Argument

Modes	Arg

#define LCB_CNTL_HTCONFIG_URLTYPE

Set the URL selection mode.

Stability

Volatile:

Primarily here to support tests and buggy HTTP servers/proxies which do not like to maintain a connection upon receipt of a 404.

The URL type can be a mask of the lcb_HTCONFIG_URLTYPE constants which indicate which URLs the HTTP provider should use.

The default is to use the 25PLUS URI first, and fallback on the compat uri if the terse one fails with an HTTP 404 (Not Found). The new-style URI is considered more efficient on cluster resources and can help the cluster maintain many more streaming connections than the compat version, however it is only available in Couchbase Server 2.5 and greater.

This setting is only used when CCCP is disabled. This will typically be for older clusters or for memcached buckets.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	`int*` (value is one of lcb_HTCONFIG_URLTYPE)

#define LCB_CNTL_SYNCDESTROY

Stability

Volatile:: Determines whether to run the event loop internally within lcb_destroy() until no more I/O resources remain for the library. This is usually only necessary if you are creating a lot of instances and/or are using memory leak analysis tools.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	`int*` (as a boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_CONLOGGER_LEVEL

Stability

Committed:

Sets the logging level for the console logger. If a logger is already initialized (either from the environment, or via lcb_cntl_logger() then this operation does nothing.

This is mainly useful for applications which want to proxy the built in logging options via command line options and the like, rather than setting it from the environment.

The argument passed to lcb_cntl() is an integer of 0 until LCB_LOGLEVEL_MAX, though the actual type is of lcb_U32 rather than an enum type.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Set	const lcb_U32 *

#define LCB_CNTL_CONLOGGER_FP

Stability

Uncommitted:

Sets the output file (as a FILE*) for the console logger. Note that any existing file pointer will be cleared (but not fclose()d.

If used with lcb_cntl_string(), (using the console_log_file parameter), the third argument is taken as the name of a file. Note that the user is responsible for closing the file.

This setting does not require a library handle and therefore the first argument to lcb_cntl() should be NULL.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get	`FILE**`
Set	`FILE*`

See also: LCB_CNTL_LOGGER; LCB_CNTL_CONLOGGER_LEVEL

#define LCB_CNTL_DETAILED_ERRCODES

Stability

Committed:

Sets the behavior for reporting network errors. By default network errors are returned as LCB_NETWORK_ERROR return codes for compatibility reasons. More detailed error codes may be available by enabling this option which will return appropriate error codes which have a category of LCB_ERRTYPE_NETWORK

Using this option means your programming model is centered around the various LCB_EIF* macros (see <libcouchbase/error.h>) rather than individual codes.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	int * (As a boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_RETRY_INTERVAL

Stability

Uncommitted:

Sets the interval at which the retry queue will attempt to resend a failed operation. When an operation fails and the retry policy (see LCB_CNTL_RETRYMODE) allows the operation to be retried, it shall be placed into a queue, and then be retried within a given interval.

Setting a high value will be friendlier on the network but also potentially increase latency, while setting this to a low value may cause unnecessary network traffic for operations which are not yet ready to be retried.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	lcb_U32* (microseconds)

See also: LCB_CNTL_RETRY_BACKOFF

#define LCB_CNTL_RETRY_BACKOFF

Stability

Uncommitted:

When an operation has been retried more than once and it has still not succeeded, the library will attempt to back off for the operation by scheduling it to be retried in LCB_CNTL_RETRY_INTEVAL * ${n} microseconds, where ${n} is the factor controlled by this setting.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	float*

#define LCB_CNTL_RETRY_NMV_IMM

Stability

Volatile:: Whether commands are retried immediately upon receipt of not-my-vbucket replies.

Since version 2.4.8, packets by default are retried immediately on a different node if it had previously failed with a not-my-vbucket response, and is thus not subject to the LCB_CNTL_RETRY_INTERVAL and LCB_CNTL_RETRY_BACKOFF settings. Disabling this setting will restore the older behavior. This may be used in case there are problems with the default heuristic/retry algorithm.

#define LCB_CNTL_HTTP_POOLSIZE

Stability

Volatile:

Set the maximum pool size for pooled http (view request) sockets. This should be set to 1 (the default) unless you plan to execute concurrent view requests. You may set this to 0 to disable pooling

The default value is true, however you may wish to disable this if you are expectedly issuing a lot of requests which may result in an error.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	int (as boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_SCHED_IMPLICIT_FLUSH

Stability

Volatile:: Set the behavior of the lcb_sched_leave() API call. By default the lcb_sched_leave() will also set up the necessary requirements for flushing to the network. If this option is off then an explicit call to lcb_sched_flush() must be performed instead.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	int (as boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_FETCH_MUTATION_TOKENS

Stability

Volatile:

Allow the server to return an additional 16 bytes of data for each mutation operation. This extra information may help with more reliable durability polling, but will also increase the size of the response packet.

This should be set on the instance before issuing lcb_connect(). While this may also be set after lcb_connect() is called, it will currently only take effect when a server reconnects (which itself may be undefined).

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	int (as boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_DURABILITY_MUTATION_TOKENS

Stability

Volatile:

This setting determines whether the lcb_durability_poll() function will transparently attempt to use mutation token functionality (rather than checking the CAS). This option is most useful for older code which does explicitly use mutation tokens but would like to use its benefits when ensuring durability constraints are satisfied.

This option is enabled by default. Users may wish to disable this if they are performing durability operations against items stored from different client instances, as this will make use of a client-global state which is derived on a per-vBucket basis. This means that the last mutation performed on a given vBucket for the client will be used, which in some cases may be older or newer than the mutations passed to the lcb_durability_poll() function.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	int (as boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_MUTATION_TOKENS_SUPPORTED

Stability

Volatile:

This read-only property determines if the mutation token mechanism is supported on the cluster itself. This will only be accurate once a single operation has been performed on the cluster - or in other words, once a connection to a data node has been established for the purposes of normal operations.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get	int (as boolean)

#define LCB_CNTL_RESET_TIMEOUT_ON_WAIT

Stability

Uncommitted:: This setting determines if calls to lcb_wait() and lcb_wait3() will reset the timeout of pending operations to the time that lcb_wait() was called, rather than having the operation maintain the time of the call which scheduled it. If the time between lcb_store3() and family and the lcb_wait() functions is long, it is recommended to disable this setting in order to avoid prematurely having operations time out.

Argument

Modes	Arg
Get, Set	int (as boolean)

Use "readj_wait_tmo" for the string version

#define LCB_CNTL_N1QL_CLEARACHE

Stability

Volatile:: Clears the internal prepared statement cache for N1QL

This does not take any arguments, and is valid only on LCB_CNTL_SET

LCB_RETRY_ON_MAX	< maximum index

enum lcb_RETRYCMDOPTS

Enumerator
LCB_RETRY_CMDS_NONE	Don't retry any commands. A command which has been forwarded to a server and a not-my-vbucket has been received in response for it will result in a failure.
LCB_RETRY_CMDS_GET	Only retry simple retrieval operations (excludes touch, get-and-touch, and get-locked) which may be retried many numbers of times without risking unintended data manipulation.
LCB_RETRY_CMDS_SAFE	Retry operations which may potentially fail because they have been accepted by a previous server, but will not silently corrupt data. Such commands include mutation operations containing a CAS.
LCB_RETRY_CMDS_ALL	Retry all commands, disregarding any potential unintended receipt of errors or data mutation.
