In my day job, I work regularly with both Laravel and WordPress. I also make packages that are needed to be compatible with both. It becomes a right pain, when it comes to caching, to write out if statements for each framework. So I created this small script which does that for me.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require fredbradley/cacher
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use FredBradley\Cacher;

Cacher::remember('cache_key_name', 300, function() {
    // Your logic
    $value = "value";
    return $value;
});

/*
 * Will set the value of 'cache_key_name' to the return value of the Closure callback and
 * save in the cache for 5 minutes (300 seconds)
 */
```

There's only a small handful of methods in the one class. It's really basic, but amazingly wonderful!

### Testing

[](#testing)

```
composer test
```
