Simple implementation of the proposed [psr-16 simplecache standard](https://github.com/php-fig/simplecache). It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with [the proposal](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/proposed/simplecache.md)when using this package.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Via Composer

```
$ composer require jlaswell/simple-cache
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Single values

```
$cache = new Jlaswell\SimpleCache\ArrayCache();
$cache->set('key1' 'value1');
// Do operations
$key1 = $cache->get('key1');
```

Multiple values

```
$cache = new Jlaswell\SimpleCache\ArrayCache();
$cache->setMultiple(['key1' => 'value1', 'key2' => 'value2']);
// Do operations
$data = $cache->getMultiple(['key1', 'key2']);
```

Change log
----------

[](#change-log)

Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information what has changed recently.

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

Tests for simple-cache are designed to be run against running instances of each of the available drivers. This means that we utilize Docker to run instances of each driver such as redis during testing. The following will start up all of the available drivers and run all of the available tests.

```
$ docker-compose up -d
$ composer test
```

simple-cache centralizes most unit tests into a single trait that is used for each driver's unit test. Each unit test simply implements a `buildCache` method, uses the `CacheInterfaceTestCases` trait, and tests will be run for that driver. The [ArrayCacheTest](https://github.com/jlaswell/simple-cache/blob/master/tests/ArrayCacheTest.php)is a good example to understand the structure and trait usage.
