`salient/cache` provides a key-value store backed by a SQLite database.

- Implements [PSR-16 (Common Interface for Caching Libraries)](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-16/)
- Multiple operations can be grouped into an atomic transaction via a [time-bound copy of the cache](https://salient-labs.github.io/toolkit/Salient.Cache.CacheStore.html#_asOfNow) that maintains an exclusive lock on the underlying database until it goes out of scope or is explicitly closed

Documentation

[](#documentation)
