Traits & interfaces for utilizing cache mechanisms to store frequently retrieved data in Laravel applications.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require sfneal/caching

Usage

1. Add caching to an eloquent query

During the first call to (new CountUnreadInquiriesQuery())->fetch(600) in a fresh application instance (or for the first time since flushing the cache) the output of the execute method will be stored in the Redis cache for 5 minutes (600 seconds).

If another call to (new CountUnreadInquiriesQuery())->fetch(600) is made within the next 5 minutes, the previous output will be retrieved from the Redis cache, forgoing the need to execute a full query to the database. In this example the time saved is minimal but time saving become increasingly significant as the complexity of a query increases.

# Importing an example model that extends Sfneal/Models/AbstractModels
use App\Models\Inquiry;

# Import Cacheable trait that stores the output of the execute method in a Redis cache using the cacheKey method to set
# the key.  Any serializable output from execute can be stored, in this case we're simply storing an integer
use Sfneal\Caching\Traits\Cacheable;

# Importing AbstractQuery as we're building an Eloquent query cache
use Sfneal\Queries\AbstractQuery;

class CountUnreadInquiriesQuery extends AbstractQuery
{
    use Cacheable;

    /**
     * Retrieve the number of unread Inquiries.
     *
     * @return int
     */
    public function execute(): int
    {
        return Inquiry::query()->whereUnread()->count();
    }

    /**
     * Retrieve the Queries cache key.
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function cacheKey(): string
    {
        # using AbstractModel::getTableName() to dynamically retrievethetable name to set the cache prefix
        return Inquiry::getTableName().':unread:count';
    }
}
