Silex Cache Service Provider
============================

[](#silex-cache-service-provider)

The Silex Cache service provider allows you to use several PHP opcode cache in your Silex application.

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

[](#installation)

To enable it, add this dependency to your `composer.json` file:

```
{
    "require": {
        "moust/silex-cache": "~2.0"
    }
}
```

Parameters
----------

[](#parameters)

- **cache.options**: Array of cache options.
    - **driver**: The cache driver to use. Can be any of: `apc`,`apcu`, `array`, `file`, `memcache`, `memcached`, `xcache`, `redis`, `wincache`.
    - **cache\_dir**: Only relevant for `file` cache driver, specifies the path to the cache directory
    - **memcache**: Only relevant for `memcache` cache driver, provide the Memcache instance to use. If not defined, a default Memcache object will be instanciated. See the Memcache documentation for additional informations : [PHP: Memcache - Manual](http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.memcache.php)
    - **memcached**: Only relevant for `memcached` cache driver, provide the Memcached instance to use. If not defined, a default Memcached object will be instanciated. See the Memcached documentation for additional informations : [PHP: Memcached - Manual](http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.memcached.php)
    - **redis**: Only relevant for `redis` cache driver, provide the Redis instance to use. If not defined, a default Redis object will be instanciated. See the PhpRedis documentation for additional informations : [PhpRedis](https://github.com/nicolasff/phpredis/)

Registering
-----------

[](#registering)

```
$app->register(new Moust\Silex\Provider\CacheServiceProvider(), array(
    'cache.options' => array(
        'driver' => 'apc'
    )
));
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The Cache provider provides a cache service. Here is a usage example:

```
// stores a variable
$app['cache']->store('foo', 'bar');
// stores a variable with a 1 minute lifetime
$app['cache']->store('foo', 'bar', 60);
// fetch variable
echo $app['cache']->fetch('foo');
// delete variable
$app['cache']->delete('foo');
// clear all cached variables
$app['cache']->clear();
```

Using multiple caches
---------------------

[](#using-multiple-caches)

The Cache provider can allow access to multiple caches. In order to configure the cache drivers, replace the `cache.options` with `caches.options`. `caches.options` is an array of configurations where keys are cache names and values are options:

```
$app->register(new Moust\Silex\Provider\CacheServiceProvider(), array(
    'caches.options' => array(
        'apc' => array(
            'driver' => 'apc'
        ),
        'filesystem' => array(
            'driver' => 'file',
            'cache_dir' => './temp'
        ),
        'memory' => array(
            'driver' => 'array'
        ),
        'memcache' => array(
            'driver' => 'memcache',
            'memcache' => function () {
                $memcache = new \Memcache;
                $memcache->connect('localhost', 11211);
                return $memcache;
            }
        )
    )
));
```

The first registered cache is the default and can simply be accessed as you would if there was only one. Given the above configuration, these two lines are equivalent:

```
$app['cache']->store('foo', 'bar');

$app['caches']['apc']->store('foo', 'bar');
```
