Informations about the package cache
Lithe Cache
Lithe Cache is a simple and efficient caching module that utilizes the filesystem for storage. With it, you can store and retrieve data quickly, improving the performance of your application.
Installation
To install the lithemod/cache module, use Composer. Run the following command in the root directory of your project:
Usage
After installation, you can use the Cache class to store and retrieve cached data. Follow these steps:
1. Configuring the Cache Directory
Before using the cache, define the directory where cached data will be stored. You can do this by calling the dir method of the Cache class:
2. Storing Data in the Cache
To store data, use the add method. You can specify a key, the data to be stored, the expiration time, and the serializer to use:
3. Retrieving Data from the Cache
To retrieve stored data, use the get method:
4. Checking for Data Existence in Cache
To check if a cache entry exists and is valid, you can use the has method, which now accepts both a single key and an array of keys:
5. Invalidating Cache Data
If you need to remove data from the cache, use the invalidate method. You can now invalidate a single key or an array of keys:
6. Using remember
The remember method allows you to retrieve data from the cache or execute a callback to fetch fresh data if not found in the cache:
Available Methods
Cache::dir($dir): Sets the cache directory.Cache::add($key, $data, $expiration, $serializer): Stores data in the cache.Cache::get($key): Retrieves data from the cache.Cache::has($key): Checks if a single or multiple cache entries exist.Cache::invalidate($key): Removes specific data from the cache.Cache::invalidate(array $keys): Removes multiple cache keys.Cache::clear(): Clears all cached data.Cache::remember($key, $callback, $expiration, $serializer): Retrieves data from the cache or executes a callback to fetch and store new data.
Final Considerations
- Permissions: Ensure that the cache directory has appropriate write permissions to avoid access issues.
- Serialization Methods:
Lithe Cachesupports bothserializeandjsonfor serializing data before storing it. Choose the method that fits your application's needs. - Directory Structure:
Lithe Cacheorganizes cache files into subdirectories to facilitate searching and improve performance in large directories.
With Lithe Cache, you have a lightweight and easy-to-use solution for caching that can be integrated into various PHP applications, providing improved performance and a smoother user experience.
