How it works ------------ [](#how-it-works) The packages caches the responses to `GET` requests in memcached using the URL as key. Any further requests get served the cached content by nginx directly without running PHP. Writing actions can easily invalidate the cache. ### Features [](#features) - Easy to setup and use - Self defined invalidation rules - Automatic cache refilling - Cache warmup ### Dependencies [](#dependencies) - Laravel 4.1 - nginx ([installation guide](https://github.com/schickling/laravel-cash/blob/master/doc/NGINX.md)) - memcached && PHP memcached extension ([installation guide](https://github.com/schickling/laravel-cash/blob/master/doc/MEMCACHED.md)) Quick setup ----------- [](#quick-setup) 1. Add the following to your composer.json and run `composer update` ``` { "require": { "schickling/laravel-cash": "dev-master" } } ``` 2. Add `Schickling\Cash\CashServiceProvider` to your config/app.php 3. Ajust your nginx vhost ([more configurations](https://github.com/schickling/laravel-cash/blob/master/doc/NGINX.md)) ``` upstream memcached { server 127.0.0.1:11211; keepalive 1024; } upstream laravel { server 127.0.0.1:9999; } server { listen *:80; server_name myapp.dev; root /path/to/your/public; index index.php; rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 last; location ~ \.php$ { default_type "application/json"; if ($request_method = GET) { set $memcached_key laravel:$request_uri; memcached_pass laravel; error_page 404 502 = @nocache; } if ($request_method != GET) { fastcgi_pass laravel; } } location @nocache { fastcgi_pass laravel; } } ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Add cache filter to routes [](#add-cache-filter-to-routes) Add the `'after' => 'cash'` filter to `GET` routes you want to be cached. Works also for groups of routes. ``` Route::get('users', array('after' => 'cash', function() { return User::all(); })); ``` ### Define invalidation rules [](#define-invalidation-rules) Add rules of the following syntax in your `routes.php` file. The `$routeToInvalidate` parameter may be a string or an array and describe always `GET` routes. ``` Cash::rule($httpMethod, $triggerRoute, $routesToInvalidate); ``` Let's say you have a cached `GET users` route to retrieve all users and a `POST users` route to create a new user. Your goal is to invalidate the `GET users` cache if a new user was created. ``` Cash::rule('POST', 'users', 'users'); ``` ##### Multiple route caches [](#multiple-route-caches) ``` Cash::rule('POST', 'users', array('users', 'premium/users')); ``` ##### Dynamic rules [](#dynamic-rules) ###### Dynamic trigger routes [](#dynamic-trigger-routes) ``` Cash::rule('POST', 'users/.*/photos', 'photos'); ``` ###### Dynamic invalidation routes [](#dynamic-invalidation-routes) ``` Cash::rule('POST', 'photos', 'photos/*'); ``` ### Flush cache [](#flush-cache) Simply restart memcached. Coming soon (please contribute a [pull request](https://github.com/schickling/laravel-cash/compare/)) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [](#coming-soon-please-contribute-a-pull-request) - Support for named routes - Support for rules in route group scope - More precise hierarchic invalidation - Apache support - Memcache support - Cache warmup - Individual cache rewarmup ### Health Score 31 — LowBetter than 68% of packages Maintenance19 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity25 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity56 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 97.4% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
