# ememcached

This is a toolkit for building memcached servers in erlang using the

memcached binary protocol.

## Quick Start

The basic idea is that there will be one server that understands

commands and can issue responses.  A sample implementation is provided

that uses an in-memory hash table.  You can try it out like this:

    1> {ok, S} = mc_handler_hashtable:start_link().

    {ok,<0.34.0>}

    2> mc_tcp_listener:start_link(11213, S).

    {ok,<0.36.0>}

Then connect to port 11213 with your favorite memcached binary

protocol client.

## Slow Start

So you want to write your own backend?  No problem.  Take a look at

`mc_handler_hashtable` for an example backend implementing

`gen_server` that handles a few commands.

Not all of the commands are defined yet, so there aren't hugely

comprehensive examples, but hopefully there's enough there to get the idea.
