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 cache-utils
Why?
This package contains a number of utility classes to play with PSR-6 caches.
File bound cache
Most PHP cache systems (like PSR-6 or PSR-16) are storing items in cache and attributing to items a time to live (TTL).
If you are developing a PHP framework or a PHP analysis library that relies a lot on reflection, it is quite common to have cache items that are related to PHP files or PHP classes.
For instance, Doctrine Annotations in a class do not change unless the class file(s) is changed. Therefore, it makes sense to bind the cache invalidation to the modification date of the file. thecodingmachine/cache-utils provides just that.
You can also use the FileBoundMemoryAdapter to store the cache in memory for even faster access in the same query.
Class bound cache
You can also bind a cache item to a class / trait / interface using the ClassBoundCache class.
The cache will expire if the class / trait / interface is modified.
The ClassBoundCache constructor accepts 3 additional parameters:
$analyzeParentClasses: if set to true, the cache will be invalidated if one of the parent classes is modified$analyzeTraits: if set to true, the cache will be invalidated if one of the traits is modified$analyzeInterfaces: if set to true, the cache will be invalidated if one of the interfaces implemented is modified
You can also use the ClassBoundMemoryAdapter to store the cache in memory for even faster access in the same query.
Easier interface with cache contracts
You can even get an easier to use class bound cache using the ClassBoundCacheContract.
With cache contracts, there is not setters. Only a getter that takes in parameter a callable that will resolve the cache item if the item is not available in the cache.
