AWS Elasticache Session and Cache Drivers for Laravel (Memcached specifically)

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

This package requires the memcached extension for PHP. Please see [this link](http://php.net/manual/en/book.memcached.php) for installation instructions.

With composer, simply add `"atyagi/elasticache-laravel": "~2.1"` to your composer.json. (or `"atyagi/elasticache-laravel": "~1.1"` for Laravel 4 installations)

Once `composer update` is ran, add

`'Atyagi\Elasticache\ElasticacheServiceProvider',`

to the providers array in `app/config.php`.

At this point, inside of `app/session.php` and `app/cache.php`, you can use `elasticache` as a valid driver.

#### Versions

[](#versions)

- 2.\* represents all versions for Laravel 5
- 1.\* represents all versions for Laravel 4

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

[](#configuration)

All configuration lives within `app/session.php` and `app/cache.php`. The key ones are below:

#### session.php

[](#sessionphp)

- lifetime -- the session lifetime within the Memcached environment
- cookie -- this is the prefix for the session ID to prevent clashing

#### cache.php

[](#cachephp)

Note: for Laravel 5, make sure to add this info to the stores array as follows:

```
'stores' => [
  ...
  'memcached' => [
    'driver' => 'memcached',
    'servers' => [
      [
        'host' => '',
        'port' => '',
        'weight' => ''
        ]
      ]
    ]
    ...
  ]
```
