bug in memcache.set() with expiration time for 30 days?

[Andrius]

Hi,

if setting memcache entity to expire in 30 days (2592000 sec) it wont
set it, the gets will return nothing.
In documentation it says that the maximum time is 30 days, but it
doesn't say that entities will not be set.

Is this is a bug?

ohh and memcache.set('myEntity', myData, 2592000) will return true!

I haven't tried, but it probably doesn't work as a positional
argument, only as a keyword argument (time=1).

even if specifying keyword it's not setting it:

memcache.set('myEntity', myData, 2592000) # returns True

memcache.get('myEntity') # returns None

memcache.set('myEntity', myData, 1209600) # returns True

memcache.get('myEntity') # returns entity data

Don't know really what's the logic here, maybe when time value is high it thinks this is a unix time stamp 2592000 = Sat, 31 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT, and makes data to expiry straight away? If so, documentation need to say that, because it is not clear!

sorry, correct code:

memcache.set('myEntity', myData, time=2592000) # returns True

memcache.get('myEntity') # returns None

memcache.set('myEntity', myData, time=1209600) # returns True

memcache.get('myEntity') # returns entity data

you can set 0 or not set time - it mean maximum lifetime (1 month).

If you set full month - it can understand as timestamp in the past and value expire immendantly. Try set 29 days or 29 days 23 hours 59 minutes.
