Parameters

instance
cookie
cmd

Returns

LCB_SUCCESS on success, error code otherwise.

When a response is received, the callback installed for LCB_CALLBACK_GETREPLICA will be invoked. The response will be an lcb_RESPGET pointer.

Request

lcb_CMDGETREPLICA* cmd;
lcb_cmdgetreplica_create(&cmd);
lcb_cmdgetreplica_key(cmd, "key", 3);
lcb_cmdgetreplica(instance, cookie, &cmd);

Response

lcb_install_callback(instance, LCB_CALLBACK_GETREPLICA, rget_callback);
static void rget_callback(lcb_INSTANCE *instance, int cbtype, const lcb_RESPBASE *rb)
{
    const lcb_RESPGET *resp = (const lcb_RESPGET *)rb;
    char* key;
    char* value;
    size_t key_len;
    size_t value_len;
    lcb_STATUS rc = lcb_respgetreplica_status(resp);
    lcb_respgetreplica_key(resp, &key, &key_len);
    printf("Got Get-From-Replica response for %.*s\n", key_len, key);
    if (rc == LCB_SUCCESS) {
        lcb_respgetreplica_value(resp, &value, &value_len);
        printf("Got response: %.*s\n", value_len, value);
    else {
        printf("Couldn't retrieve: %s\n", lcb_strerror_short(rc));
    }
}

Warning

As this function queries a replica node for data it is possible that the returned document may not reflect the latest document in the server.

This function should only be used in cases where a normal lcb_get3() has failed, or where there is reason to believe it will fail. Because this function may query more than a single replica it may cause additional network and server-side CPU load. Use sparingly and only when necessary.

• ::LCB_ERR_DOCUMENT_NOT_FOUND if the key is not found on the replica(s), ::LCB_ERR_NO_MATCHING_SERVER if there are no replicas (either configured or online), or if the given replica (if lcb_CMDGETREPLICA::strategy is ::LCB_REPLICA_SELECT) is not available or is offline.
