API for caching common entity data to reduce DB queries

- Caches entity likes count
- Caches entity comments count
- Caches last comment
- Caches user friends count
- Caches group members count

### Developer Notes

[](#developer-notes)

#### Logic

[](#logic)

The plugin uses preloader classes to load values from the database on first request. The value is cached and returned on consequent calls. `Preloader::up()` can be used to define when the cached value should be reset. For example, the value of likes is constant until a new like annotation is created, or an old is deleted, so we register our reset function for those events.

#### Helpers

[](#helpers)

You can use helper functions to retrieve counts using caching framework. All available shortcut functions can be found in `/lib/functions.php`

```
elgg_get_total_likes($entity);
elgg_get_total_comments($entity);
// etc.
```

#### Custom Properties

[](#custom-properties)

```
$stash = \hypeJunction\Stash\Stash::instance();

// Register a new cacheable property
$stash->register(new CustomProperty()); // Custom property must implement Preloader interface

// Get property value
$prop = $stash->get(CustomProperty::PROPERTY, $entity);
```
