Crate relock

Distributed async locking using Redis.

Description

Distributed locks are a very useful primitive in many environments where different processes must operate with shared resources in a mutually exclusive way. This crate implements the “Correct implementation with a single instance” algorithm described in the Redis documentation.

lock

use relock::Relock;

let relock = Relock::new("redis://127.0.0.1/").unwrap();

let lock_key = "foo-lock";
let time_to_live = 10_000;
let retry_count = 5;
let retry_delay = 200;

// Acquire the lock. If the lock is bussy, this method will retry
// `retry_count` times with a delay of `retry_delay` milliseconds between
// each retry.
let lock = relock.lock(lock_key, time_to_live, retry_count, retry_delay).await.unwrap();
// Do something
relock.unlock(lock_key, lock.id).await.unwrap();

try_lock

use relock::Relock;

let relock = Relock::new("redis://127.0.0.1/").unwrap();

let lock_key = "foo-try-lock";
let time_to_live = 10_000;

// Acquire the lock. If the lock is bussy, this method will return a Lock
// Error. Consider waiting a bit before retrying or use `lock` method instead.
let lock = relock.try_lock(lock_key, time_to_live).await.unwrap();
// Do something
relock.unlock(lock_key, lock.id).await.unwrap();
