Cache
=====

[](#cache)

Yet another caching implementation.

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/87ed01b7d36182d9490790d360744a796f6ce968cdadf918f0bba3273c4150d0/68747470733a2f2f6170692e7472617669732d63692e6f72672f776562736f667477617265732f43616368652e706e67)](https://travis-ci.org/websoftwares/Cache)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Basic usage applies to all cache storage options

```
use Websoftwares\Cache, Websoftwares\Storage\File;

$cache = Cache::storage(new File());

$cache->save('key',["a","b","c"]);

// Retrieve the cache

$cache->get('key');
```

Storage
-------

[](#storage)

Available storage options:

- Apc (saves the cache to apc)
- File (saves the cache to a file)
- Memcache (save the cache to a memcache instance)
- Memcached (save the cache to a memcached instance)
- MongoDB (save the cache to a mongo instance)
- Redis (save the cache to a redis instance)
- Riak (save the cache to a riak instance)

Apc
---

[](#apc)

```
use Websoftwares\Cache, Websoftwares\Storage\Apc;

$apc = Cache::storage(new Apc())
 ->setExpiration(86400);

$apc->save('key',["a","b","c"]);

// Retrieve the cache

$apc->get('key');
```

File
----

[](#file)

```
use Websoftwares\Cache, Websoftwares\Storage\File;

$cache = Cache::storage(new File())
 ->setPath('/super/spot')
 ->setExpiration(86400);

$cache->save('key',["a","b","c"]);

// Retrieve the cache

$cache->get('key');
```

Memcache
--------

[](#memcache)

This requires u have the PHP memcache extension installed.

on Debian/Ubuntu systems for example install like this (requires administrative password).

```
sudo apt-get install php5-memcache

```

```
use Websoftwares\Cache, Websoftwares\Storage\Memcache;

$memcache = Cache::storage(new Memcache())
    ->setConnection(function() {
        $instance = new \Memcache;
        $instance->connect('localhost','11211');
        return $instance;
    })
    ->setExpiration(86400);

$memcache->save('key',["a","b","c"]);

// Retrieve the cache

$memcache->get('key');
```

Memcached
---------

[](#memcached)

This requires u have the PHP memcached extension installed.

on Debian/Ubuntu systems for example install like this (requires administrative password).

```
sudo apt-get install php5-memcached

```

```
use Websoftwares\Cache, Websoftwares\Storage\Memcached;

$memcached = Cache::storage(new Memcached())
    ->setConnection(function() {
        $instance = new \Memcached();
        $instance->addServer("localhost", 11211);
        return $instance;
    })
    ->setExpiration(86400);

$memcached->save('key',["a","b","c"]);

// Retrieve the cache

$memcached->get('key');
```

Mongo

On debian/ubuntu systems run the following command to install the mongo extension (requires administrator password).

```
sudo pecl install mongo

```

```
use Websoftwares\Cache, Websoftwares\Storage\Mongo;

$mongo = Cache::storage(new Mongo())
    ->setConnection(function() {
        $m = new \MongoClient();
        $db = $m->mongocache;
        return $db;
    })
    ->setCollection('test')
    ->setExpiration(86400);

$mongo->save('key',["a","b","c"]);

// Retrieve the cache

$mongo->get('key');
```

            'scheme'   => 'tcp',
            'host'     => '127.0.0.1',
            'port'     => 6379,
