>From what I understand this wouldn't work. I see the following problem with getOrFetchAccessToken in a distributed environment:
Let's say I have two servers with the php code answering requests from clients, server A and server B. Those two servers can receive a request at the same time. As they are isolated if getOrFetchAccessToken needs to refresh the token, each server will refresh the token and get an access_token. This should not happen and the "refresh token" task should be synced (with a distributed lock system like redis/zk/etcd) between servers so only one is actually refreshing the token, updating the db or cache and the other ones are getting the new value from the updated cache. This is all app dependent (well, more client infra-dependent stuff) so the googleads-php-lib cannot/shouldn't deal with this and it should just provide the necessary hooks so the app can take care of this. This is what I'm doing with the custom FetchAuthTokenInterface implementation I have. Note about "shouldFetchAccessToken". Calling "shouldFetchAccessToken" does not help even within the same request. I can call "shouldFetchAccessToken" and it will return false and the next call will return "true". It means that when calling getOrFetchAccessToken I don't know if the value returned is the "cached" one (whatever that means as cache should be done by the app anyways) or a refreshed one, so I wouldn't know when to save it (well, I could compare with the one I had previously that would work). But then, getOrFetchAccessToken has the problem described initially. I hope it makes sense. Thanks.
