Runtime Cache for Laravel Eloquent

Cabinet allows you to attach runtime or persistent caching to any Laravel Eloquent instance.

Installation

To install through composer, simply put the following in your composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        "laravie/cabinet": "^3.0"
    }
}

And then run composer install or composer update from the terminal.

Quick Installation

Above installation can also be simplify by using the following command:

composer require "laravie/cabinet=^3.0"

Usages

Setup Cabinet on a Model

You first need to add Laravie\Cabinet\Cabinet on an Eloquent Model such as:

<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Laravie\Cabinet\Cabinet;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Cabinet;
}

Allow persistent caching

To add persistent caching on the Eloquent, you have to attach a cache storage that support tags (Cache tags are not supported when using the file or database cache driver).

<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Laravie\Cabinet\Cabinet;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Cabinet;
    /**
     * Configure cabinet for the eloquent model.
     * 
     * @param  \Laravie\Cabinet\Repository  $cabinet 
     * @return void
     */
    protected function onCabinet($cabinet)
    {
        $cabinet->setStorage(resolve('cache.store'));
    }
}

Storing data

Runtime

Laravie\Cabinet\Repository::share(string $key, callable $callback);

The method allows a value to be register for $key using a closure/callable $callback.

$user->cabinet()->share('birthday', static function ($user) {
    return now()->diffInDays($user->birthdate);
});

Persistent with TTL

Laravie\Cabinet\Repository::share(string $key, callable $callback, $ttl = null);

By adding the 3rd parameter $ttl (in seconds), Cabinet will attempt to store the data in cache for $ttl seconds.

$user->cabinet()->share('birthday', static function ($user) {
    return now()->diffInDays($user->birthdate);
}, 60);

Forever

Laravie\Cabinet\Repository::forever(string $key, callable $callback);

You can either use forever as the 3rd parameter using share or use forever to cache the value indefinitely.

$user->cabinet()->share('birthday', static function ($user) {
    return now()->diffInDays($user->birthdate);
}, 'forever');
// or
$user->cabinet->forever('birthday', static function ($user) {
    return now()->diffInDays($user->birthdate);
})

Retrieving the data

Laravie\Cabinet\Repository::get(string $key);

Retrieving the data using get method.

$user->cabinet()->get('birthday');
// or
$user->cabinet('birthday');

Forgetting the data

Laravie\Cabinet\Repository::forget(string $key);

Forget any data by the given $key.

$user->cabinet()->forget('birthday');

Flushing all data

Laravie\Cabinet\Repository::flush();

Flushing all data for an Eloquent model.

$user->cabinet()->flush();
