FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package simplecacheapcu

SimpleCacheAPCu

This is an implementation of PSR-16 for the APCu caching engine.

Two different classes are provided. The first just provides a PSR-16 compliant interface to APCu and the second provides encryption of the cached data via the libsodium extension.

Please refer to the files USAGE.md, and SURVIVAL.md for more information specific to SimpleCacheAPCu.

For instructions specific to the encryption option, see the file SODIUM.md.

Please refer to the file LICENSE.md for the terms of the MIT License this software is released under.

About APCu Caching

APCu caches key => value pairs in the web server memory. The key must be a string but the value can be any type that can be serialized.

Effective use of APCu can greatly improve the performance of your web applications, reducing how often your web application needs to make database or filesystem queries or process data from those queries.

The information can usually be retrieved straight from system memory already in the form your web application needs it to be in, radically reducing server response times to client queries.

APCu cache only lives in the web server memory. If you restart the web server daemon, everything stored is gone. If the web server needs the memory for its own uses, it will dump some or all of the key => value pairs.

If you wish to have a more persistent cache than APCu provides, you should use SimpleCacheRedis instead.

When web applications need information that can be cached, a unique key for that information that should be used. The web application then attempts to fetch the needed information from the cache.

If it is there, the web application can then immediately use it resulting in fast response times. When the information is not there (what is called a ‘miss’) the web application then fetches the information by another means (e.g. database query with processing of the data) and then store it in the cache so it is highly likely to be there the next time it is queried from the cache.

If you need a networked cache, APCu is not the best choice for you, see the Redis link given earlier. However for local caching on the public facing server, it is incredibly lightweight and fast.

About PHP-FIG and PSR-16

PHP-FIG is the PHP Framework Interop Group. They exist largely to create standards that make it easier for different developers around the world to create different projects that will work well with each other. PHP-FIG was a driving force behind the PSR-0 and PSR-4 auto-load standards for example that make it much much easier to integrate PHP class libraries written by other people into your web applications.

The PHP-FIG previously released PSR-6 as a Caching Interface standard but the interface requirements of PSR-6 are beyond the needs of many web application developers. KISS - ‘Keep It Simple Silly’ applies for many of us who do not need some of the features PSR-6 requires.

To meet the needs of those of us who do not need what PSR-6 implements, PSR-16 was developed and is now an accepted standard.

When I read PSR-16, the defined interface it was not that different from my own APCu caching class that I have personally been using for years. So I decided to make my class meet the interface requirements, and this is the result.

Coding Standard

The coding standard used is primarily PSR-2 except with the closing ?> allowed, and the addition of some PHPDoc requirements largely but not completely borrowed from the PEAR standard.

The intent is switch PHPDoc standard to PSR-5 if it ever becomes an accepted standard.

The phpcs sniff rules being used: psr2.phpcs.xml

About AWonderPHP

I may become homeless before the end of 2018. I do not know how to survive, I try but what I try, it always seems to fail. This just is not a society people like me are meant to be a part of.

If I do become homeless, I fear my mental health will deteriorate at an accelerated rate and I do not want to witness that happening to myself.

AWonderPHP is my attempt to clean up and package a lot of the PHP classes I personally use so that something of me will be left behind.

If you wish to help, please see the SURVIVAL.md file.

Thank you for your time.
