PHP Platform Caching JSON Meta Data
===================================

[](#php-platform-caching-json-meta-data)

Whole PHP Platform is built by using Meta Data in [JSON](http://www.json.org/) Format. This package provides caching for JSON Metadata

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/d3c3dcf3bf998ae2ba011507346a44cc59b2f1bd9939c319c92a5db9562a01ac/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f504850506c6174666f726d2f6a736f6e2d63616368652e7376673f6272616e63683d76302e31)](https://travis-ci.org/PHPPlatform/json-cache)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

- to read from cache

```
PhpPlatform\JSONCache\Cache::getInstance()->getData($key);
```

where `$key` is string representaion of json path for required cached value

- to store in cache

```
PhpPlatform\JSONCache\Cache::getInstance()->setData($data);
```

where `$data` is an **`array`** to be stored in the cache

- to reset cache

```
PhpPlatform\JSONCache\Cache::getInstance()->reset();
```

### Extending the cache

[](#extending-the-cache)

`PhpPlatform\JSONCache\Cache` can be extended to create user defined caches

```
class NewCache extends PhpPlatform\JSONCache\Cache{

	private static $cacheObj = null;
	protected $cacheFileName = "newcachefile"; // new cache filename

	public static function getInstance(){
		if(self::$cacheObj == null){
			self::$cacheObj = new NewCache();
		}
		return self::$cacheObj;
	}
}
```
