[](#request-caching)

Request Caching requires `phore/cache` package to be installed

```
$cache = new Cache(new ObjectStore(new FileSystemObjectStoreDriver("/tmp/cache1")));

$req = phore_http_request("http://localhost/")->withCache($cache)->send();
if ($req->isFromCache() === true)
    echo "From Cache: " . $req->getBody();

```

Examples: see [`examples/`](examples/) and [`examples/README.md`](examples/README.md).
