FAQ
Example:
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 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.
Informations about the package simple-cache
Simple Cache
A simple and transparent caching library for PHP with multiple driver support.
Features
- Lightweight and easy-to-use API
- Multiple drivers: File, Memcached, Redis, Database, Mock
- Built-in support for the "remember" pattern
- Mock driver for testing
Installation
Requirements
- PHP 8.0 or higher
- For File driver: No additional requirements
- For Memcached driver:
ext-memcached(version >= 3.0 recommended) - For Redis driver:
ext-redis(version >= 5.0 recommended) - For Database driver:
ext-pdowith appropriate database driver (e.g.,ext-pdo-mysql) - For Mock driver: No additional requirements
Configuration
Files
Memcached
Redis
SQL database
Note: The DatabaseCacheDriver automatically creates cache table with columns key, value, expires_at, created_at, and updated_at (with an index on expires_at) if it doesn't exist. Ensure the database user has CREATE TABLE and INDEX permissions.
Mock cache for testing
Usage
Basic usage
Using the "remember" pattern:
Drivers
Simple Cache supports the following drivers:
- File: Stores cache in files on the filesystem.
- Config:
directory(path to cache directory),file_extension(e.g.,.cache)
- Config:
- Memcached: Uses a Memcached server for distributed caching.
- Config:
servers(array of [host, port]),prefix(key prefix)
- Config:
- Redis: Uses a Redis server for high-performance caching.
- Config:
host,port,prefix,database,password,timeout
- Config:
- Database: Stores cache in an SQL database (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL).
- Config:
dsn,username,password,table
- Config:
- Mock: In-memory driver for testing, does not persist data.
- Config:
emulate_failures(bool),log_operations(bool)
- Config:
Testing
To run tests locally, ensure Memcached, Redis, and MySQL are running and PHP extensions (ext-memcached, ext-redis, ext-pdo_mysql) are installed. Then run:
To run the tests using Docker Compose:

Why Simple Cache?
Simple Cache is designed to be a lightweight, transparent, and easy-to-use caching library for PHP. Unlike other caching libraries that come with complex configurations or heavy dependencies, Simple Cache focuses on:
- Simplicity: Intuitive API with minimal setup.
- Flexibility: Supports multiple drivers (File, Memcached, Redis, Database, Mock) out of the box.
- Testability: Includes a Mock driver for easy unit testing.
- Lightweight: Minimal dependencies for better performance in small to medium projects.
Roadmap
- Add support for PSR-6 (Caching Interface) in future versions
- Add support for additional drivers (e.g., APCu)
