Laravel Model Caching

For Laravel 5.x.x

This is a package to cache your eloquent query results.

Installation

Require this package in your composer.json and run composer update (or run composer require farzinft/laravel-model-caching:dev-master directly):

"farzin/laravel-model-caching": "dev-master"

You need to publish the config file for this package. This will add the file config/model-caching.php, where you can configure this package.

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Fthi\ModelCaching\ServiceProvider"

Usage

You just need add your model to model caching construct and write your eloquent queries in a normal way. this package uses Redis for caching results;

Example:

suppose you have a customer model and you wrote a query like this:

without cache:

 "$customers = Customer::with('books')->where(['status' => 1])->get()"

and you want cache result 50 seconds, change cache_expire_time (in second) in model-caching.php or inside your model define a public variable named $cacheExpireTime, then:

with cache:

"$customers = (new ModelCaching(new Customer))->with('books')->where(['status' => 1])->get()"

when cache time expired results back from database.

just tested on laravel 5.x, maybe it works on other versions, test it :)
