This PHP extension provides an object-oriented interface of libyrmcds, a full-featured memcached / yrmcds client library.

yrmcds is a complete rewrite of memcached that supports replication and the server-side locking. libyrmcds is a companion client library for yrmcds.

Thanks to yrmcds' server-side locking, this extension can provide a stable object locking mechanism when combined with yrmcds.

• Access to all memcached / yrmcds binary protocol commands.
• Persistent connections.
• Auto prefix keys.
• Transparent LZ4 compression for large objects.
• Asynchronous operations.

As a bonus, a session handler utilizing yrmcds' server-side locking is also available.

• PHP 5.4 or better.
• Linux.

Follow the common steps:

$ cd php-yrmcds
$ phpize
$ ./configure --with-php-config=/path/to/your/php-config
$ make
$ sudo make install
