cache
=====

[](#cache)

A simple php file cache. The Cache is designed to simplify the process of caching data in PHP applications. It provides various methods for configuration, data caching, retrieval, and cache management. It helps to reduce database queries, API calls, or expensive computations by storing the results in the cache.

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

[](#installation)

Installation is super-easy via Composer:

```
composer require peterujah/cache
```

USAGES
======

[](#usages)

Initialize DBController with configuration array

```
use Peterujah\NanoBlock\Cache;
$cache = new Cache("CACHE_NAME", __DIR__ . "/temp/caches/");
```

```
$cache->setExpire(7200);
$user = $cache->onExpired("LIST", function () use($connConfig, $user_id){
	$conn_handler = new Peterujah\NanoBlock\DBController($connConfig);
	$conn_handler->prepare('
	      SELECT * FROM user_table
	      WHERE user_id = :fund_user_id
	      LIMIT 1
	');
	$conn_handler->bind(':fund_user_id', $user_id);
	$conn_handler->execute();
	$user = $conn_handler->getOne();
	$conn_handler->free();
	return  array(
