key-value-api
=============

[](#key-value-api)

Simple key-value cache API to abstract the underlying key-value store. Currently implements APC and memcache

Usage example
=============

[](#usage-example)

```
$KV = new kv(
	array('Enabled' => false),
	array('Enabled' => true, 'Servers' => $Servers)
);

// Object style
$KV['Value1'] = 'asdf';
echo $KV['Value1']; // Outputs "asdf"
echo '';

// Static class style
echo kv::get('Value1'); // Outputs "asdf";
echo '';
kv::set('Value1', 'qwerty');
echo kv::get('Value1'); // Outputs "qwerty";
echo '';
kv::clear_all();
echo kv::get('Value1'); // Outputs "";
echo '';
kv::set('TestNumber', 42);
echo $KV['TestNumber'];
echo '';
kv::inc('TestNumber', 2);
echo $KV['TestNumber'];

```

Servers for memcache can be specified in multiple ways:

```
$Servers = [
    ['localhost', 11211],
    ['127.0.0.1']
];

$Servers = ['localhost:11211', '127.0.0.1'];

$Servers = 'localhost11211;127.0.0.1';

$KV = new kv(
	array('Enabled' => false),
	array('Enabled' => true, 'Servers' => $Servers)
);

```
