Supports both [PSR-6](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-6/) and [PSR-16](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-16/) caching standards. 📦 Installation -------------- [](#-installation) This project requires [PHP](https://php.net) 7.2 or higher. The recommended way to install, is via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org). Simply run: ``` $ composer require biurad/cache ``` 📍 Quick Start ------------- [](#-quick-start) One of the key features of this library is its ability to cache the result of a callable or function, allowing for the caching of complex computations or database queries. Additionally, it includes a fallback load feature to ensure that the cached value is always fetched, even if it has expired from the cache. Here is an example of how to use the library using [symfony/cache](https://github.com/symfony/cache): ``` use Biurad\Cache\FastCache as Cache; use Psr\Cache\CacheItemInterface; use Symfony\Component\Cache\Adapter\PhpFilesAdapter; $storage = new PhpFilesAdapter(directory: __DIR__.'/cache'); $cache = new Cache($storage); $cache->setCacheItem(\Symfony\Component\Cache\CacheItem::class); // The callable will only be executed on a cache miss. $value = $cache->load( 'my_cache_key', static function (CacheItemInterface $item): CacheItemInterface { $item->expiresAfter(3600); // ... do some HTTP request or heavy computations $item->set('foobar'); return $item; } ); echo $value; // 'foobar' // ... and to remove the cache key $cache->delete('my_cache_key'); // cache the result of the function $ip = $cache->call('gethostbyaddr', "127.0.0.1"); function calculate(array $a, array $b): array { $result = []; foreach ($a as $i => $v) foreach ($v as $k => $m) $result[$i][$k] = $m + $b[$i][$k]; return $result; } $matrix = $cache->wrap('calculate'); $result = $matrix([[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6]], [[7, 8, 9], [10, 11, 12]]) // [[8, 10, 12], [14, 16, 18]] // Caching the result of printable contents using PHP echo. if ($block = $cache->start($key)) { ... printing some data ... $block->end(); // save the output to the cache } ``` > **NB:** The beta parameter found on cache methods default value is 1.0 and higher values mean earlier recompute. Set it to 0 to disable early recompute and set it to INF to force an immediate recompute: 📓 Documentation --------------- [](#-documentation) In-depth documentation on how to use this library can be found at [docs.biurad.com](https://docs.biurad.com/poakium/cache). It is also recommended to browse through unit tests in the [tests](./tests/) directory. 🙌 Sponsors ---------- [](#-sponsors) If this library made it into your project, or you interested in supporting us, please consider [donating](https://biurad.com/sponsor) to support future development. 👥 Credits & Acknowledgements -------------------------------- [](#-credits--acknowledgements) - [Divine Niiquaye Ibok](https://github.com/divineniiquaye) is the author this library. - [All Contributors](https://github.com/biurad/php-cache/contributors) who contributed to this project. 📄 License --------- [](#-license) Poakium Cache is completely free and released under the [BSD 3 License](LICENSE). ### Health Score 37 — LowBetter than 83% of packages Maintenance64 Regular maintenance activity Popularity17 Limited adoption so far Community11 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity49 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 97.4% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
