Matryoshka
==========

[](#matryoshka)

Matryoshka is a package for Laravel that provides Russian-Doll caching for views. This package is based on a series of laracasts lessons with a few modifications [See Laracasts.com](https://laracasts.com/series/russian-doll-caching-in-laravel).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### Step 1: Composer

[](#step-1-composer)

From the command line, run:

```
composer require achillesp/matryoshka

```

### Step 2: Service Provider (Laravel < 5.5)

[](#step-2-service-provider-laravel--55)

For your Laravel app, open `config/app.php` and, within the `providers` array, append:

```
Achillesp\Matryoshka\MatryoshkaServiceProvider::class

```

### Config

[](#config)

This package uses a config file which you can override by publishing to your config dir.

```
php artisan vendor publish --provider=MatryoshkaServiceProvider --tag=config

```

In the config file you can set the tag that the cache uses. If you can't use a cache that supports tagging, set it to null.

Also in the config file, you can set whether you want to flush caches on your local machine to help with development.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To use the plugin, you use the blade directives `@cache` and `@endcache` in your views. The directive needs an identifier, which can be either a unique string, a Model or a Collection.

### Caching HTML

[](#caching-html)

```
@cache('my-cache-key')

        Hello World

@endcache
```

### Caching Models

[](#caching-models)

```
@cache($post)

        {{ $post->title }}>
        Written By: {{ $post->author->username }}

        {{ $post->body }}

@endcache
```

In order to cache a Model, one more step is needed. You need to use the Cacheable trait in your Model.

```
use Achillesp\Matryoshka\Cacheable;

class Post extends Eloquent
{
    use Cacheable;
}
```

### Caching Collections

[](#caching-collections)

```
@cache($posts)
    @foreach ($posts as $post)
        @include ('post')
    @endforeach
@endcache
```
