I am using go-couchbase to update data to couchbase, however, I have problem in how to use the callback function.
The function Update
requires me to pass a callback function in which should be UpdateFunc
func (b *Bucket) Update(k string, exp int, callback UpdateFunc) error
So that's what I have done
First, I declared a type UpdateFunc
:
type UpdateFunc func(current []byte) (updated []byte, err error)
Then in the code, I add the following lines:
fn := UpdateFunc{func(0){}}
and then call the Update
function:
bucket.Update("12345", 0, fn()}
But the Go returns the following error:
syntax error: unexpected literal 0, expecting ) for this line fn := UpdateFunc{func(0){}}
So what I am doing wrong? So how can I make the callback function work ?
Thanks all of your suggestion. Now I can run the callback function as follows:
myfunc := func(current []byte)(updated []byte, err error) {return updated, err }
myb.Update("key123", 1, myfunc)
However, when I run the Update function of the bucket. I checked the couch database. The document with the key of "key123" was disappeared. It seems the Update does not update the value but delete it. What happened?
You need to create a function that matches the couchbase.UpdateFunc
signature then pass it to bucket.Update
.
For example:
fn := func(current []byte) (updated []byte, err error) {
updated = make([]byte, len(current))
copy(updated, current)
//modify updated
return
}
....
bucket.Update("12345",0,fn)
Notice that to pass a function you just pass fn
not fn()
, that would actually call the function right away and pass the return value of it.
I highly recommend stopping everything you're doing and reading Effective Go and all the posts on Go's blog starting with First Class Functions in Go.
Same answer I posted on the go-nuts list, just in case:
You don't have to define the UpdateFunc type by yourself, it's already defined here:
https://github.com/couchbaselabs/go-couchbase/blob/master/client.go#L608
just define the function normally and pass it as an argument or pass an anonymous function as in other languages.
here's a simple example:
