class litestar.stores.file.FileStore

Bases: NamespacedStore

File based, thread and process safe, asynchronous key/value store.

__init__(path: PathLike[str]) → None

Initialize FileStorage.

Parameters:

path – Path to store data under

path

file path

with_namespace(namespace: str) → FileStore

Return a new instance of FileStore, using a sub-path of the current store’s path.

async set(key: str, value: str | bytes, expires_in: int | timedelta | None = None) → None

Set a value.

Parameters:

• key – Key to associate the value with

• value – Value to store

• expires_in – Time in seconds before the key is considered expired

Returns:

None

async get(key: str, renew_for: int | timedelta | None = None) → bytes | None

Get a value.

Parameters:

• key – Key associated with the value

• renew_for – If given and the value had an initial expiry time set, renew the expiry time for renew_for seconds. If the value has not been set with an expiry time this is a no-op

Returns:

The value associated with key if it exists and is not expired, else None

async delete(key: str) → None

Delete a value.

If no such key exists, this is a no-op.

Parameters:

key – Key of the value to delete

async delete_all() → None

Delete all stored values.

Note

This deletes and recreates FileStore.path

async delete_expired() → None

Delete expired items.

Since expired items are normally only cleared on access (i.e. when calling get()), this method should be called in regular intervals to free disk space.

async exists(key: str) → bool

Check if a given key exists.

async expires_in(key: str) → int | None

Get the time in seconds key expires in. If no such key exists or no expiry time was set, return None.
