Features

Cache

The PHP high-performance object caching system, phpfastcache is part of hast_plus. Currently only File-Caching is supported, but Pull-Request are welcome.

Example : FileCache

// MyClass.php

public function getSelectOptions(array $arrNewsArchives)
{
	// select a unique key
	$strCacheKey = 'my_select_options' . implode('_', $arrNewsArchives);
	
	if(FileCache::getInstance()->isExisting($strCacheKey))
	{
		return FileCache::getInstance()->get($strCacheKey);
	}
	
	$arrItems = array();
	
	// heavy sql queries or http-requests (just an example)
	$objItems = \NewsModel::findPublishedByPids($arrNewsArchives);
	
	if($objItems === null)
	{
		return $arrItems;
	}
	
	$arrItems = $objItems->fetchEach('headline');
	
	FileCache::getInstance()->set($strCacheKey, $arrItems);
  
	return $arrItems;
}

Security

Add security headers to http request (configurable in tl_settings)
