I think using cache is what I want. Thanks!
However, now I see that it does not cache:
httpd.conf:
PerlAddVar MasonAllowGlobals %companyInfo
PerlAddVar MasonDataCacheApi chi
PerlAddVar MasonDataCacheDefaults "driver => Memory"
#PerlSetVar MasonCodeCacheMaxSize 0 #default is unlimited
top autohandler:
my $nocache=0;
%companyInfo = $m->cache->get('companyInfo', busy_lock => '30 seconds');
if (!defined(%companyInfo) || $nocache) {
my $compinf_o=$dbh->selectall_hashref(q{SELECT * FROM
partnerInfo},
'pGroup');
for my $key (keys %{$compinf_o})
{$companyInfo{$key}=JSON::XS->new-
>utf8->decode($compinf_o->{$key}->{json} ) if $compinf_o->{$key}-
>{json}; }
$m->cache->set('companyInfo', %companyInfo, {expires_in =>
3600});
}
some other file:
<%init>
$m->out(JSON::XS->new->pretty(1)->encode(\%
{$companyInfo{$session{_partnerGroup}}}));
</%init>
It displays if I set $nocache to 1, but then when I set it back I get
empty data. My /var/spool/mason/SITE/cache is empty, but I think
that's expected with 'driver => Memory'.
