An implementation of Yii's cache with dependencies for Laravel

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require craftcms/laravel-dependency-aware-cache

Usage

The dependency aware repository is hooked up automatically and will be returned when using the Cache Facade.

This package also provides a \CraftCms\DependencyAwareCache\Facades\DependencyCache Facade which extends the default Cache Facade but provides updated docblocks.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Cache;
use CraftCms\DependencyAwareCache\DependencyAwareRepository;
use CraftCms\DependencyAwareCache\Facades\DependencyCache;

/** @var DependencyAwareRepository $cache */
$cache = Cache::store();

/** @var DependencyAwareRepository $cache */
$cache = DependencyCache::store();

Invalidation

When using the cache, you can specify a dependency that may trigger cache invalidation. Below is an example using the tag dependency:

use CraftCms\DependencyAwareCache\Dependency\TagDependency;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Cache;

Cache::put('item_42_price', 10, null, new TagDependency('item_42'));
Cache::put('item_42_total', 100, null, new TagDependency('item_42'));

Cache::get('item_42_price'); // 10
Cache::get('item_42_total'); // 100

TagDependency::invalidate('item_42');

Cache::get('item_42_price'); // null
Cache::get('item_42_total'); // null

Other dependencies:

• CallbackDependency - invalidates when the result of a callback changes.

• FileDependency - invalidates the cache based on file modification time.

• ValueDependency - invalidates the cache when specified value changes.

• You may combine multiple dependencies using AnyDependency or AllDependencies.

You can implement your own dependency by extending Dependency.
