up1 / codeigniter-cache

A cache library for CodeIgniter that can cache by library call, model call or just custom data via get/write methods.

CodeIgniter-Cache

CodeIgniter-Cache is a partial caching library for CodeIgniter. It allows you to write and get chunks of data to and from the filesystem. By storing complex or large chunks of data in serialized form on the file system you can relieve stress from the database or simply cache Twitter calls.

Usage

// Uncached model call
$this->blog_m->getPosts($category_id, 'live');

// cached model call
$this->cache->model('blog_m', 'getPosts', array($category_id, 'live'), 120); // keep for 2 minutes 


$this->cache->library('some_library', 'calcualte_something', array($foo, $bar, $bla)); // keep for default time (0 = unlimited)

$this->cache->write($data, 'cached-name');
$data = $this->cache->get('cached-name');

$this->cache->delete('cached-name');

Installation

Permission your cache folder to be writeable by the web server.

Requirements
