Attribute-based method caching for Laravel applications using method overriding proxy system.

This package allows you to cache method results by annotating them with attributes, automatically intercepting calls to store and retrieve cached results.

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

[](#installation)

Install the package with Composer:

```
composer require athwari/laravel-method-cache
```

Laravel package auto-discovery is supported, so the service provider and facade are registered automatically.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Publish the configuration file:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=method-cache-config
```

The published config file is located at `config/method-cache.php`.

### Default configuration

[](#default-configuration)

```
return [
    'default_ttl' => 3600, // Default TTL in seconds
    'cache_store' => null, // Cache store to use, null for default
    'key_prefix' => 'method_cache',
    'enable_logging' => false,
    'log_channel' => 'default',
    'auto_flush_events' => [], // Eloquent events to auto-flush, e.g., ['saved', 'deleted']
];
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Annotate methods with the `#[Cacheable]` attribute to enable caching.

### Basic caching

[](#basic-caching)

```
use Athwari\MethodCache\Attributes\Cacheable;

class UserService
{
    #[Cacheable(ttl: 300)] // Cache for 5 minutes
    public function getUser(int $id): User
    {
        // Expensive operation
        return User::find($id);
    }
}
```

### Custom key and tags

[](#custom-key-and-tags)

```
#[Cacheable(key: 'user_profile_{id}', tags: ['users'])]
public function getUserProfile(int $id): array
{
    return [
        'user' => User::find($id),
        'posts' => Post::where('user_id', $id)->get(),
    ];
}
```

### Conditional caching

[](#conditional-caching)

```
#[Cacheable(condition: 'fn($args) => $args[0] > 0')]
public function expensiveCalculation(int $value): int
{
    // Only cache if value > 0
}
```

### Cache invalidation

[](#cache-invalidation)

Use the facade to flush caches:

```
use Athwari\MethodCache\Facades\MethodCache;

// Flush all
MethodCache::flushAll();

// Flush by tags
MethodCache::flushTags(['users']);

// Flush by class
MethodCache::flushClass(UserService::class);
```

Or use the console command:

```
php artisan method-cache:flush --tags=users
php artisan method-cache:flush --class=App\\Services\\UserService
```

Attributes
----------

[](#attributes)

- `#[Cacheable]`: Main caching attribute
- `#[NoCache]`: Skip caching for specific methods
- `#[CacheableUntil]`: Cache until a specific time

Exceptions
----------

[](#exceptions)
