Member Function Documentation

◆ are_requirements_met()

static cache_store_interface::are_requirements_met ( )

staticinherited

Static method to check if the store requirements are met.

Return values

bool	True if the stores software/hardware requirements have been met and it can be used. False otherwise.

Implemented in cachestore_static, cachestore_session, cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, cachestore_file, cachestore_apcu, and cachestore_dummy.

◆ can_add_instance()

static cache_store::can_add_instance ( )

staticinherited

Returns true if the user can add an instance of the store plugin.

Return values

bool

Reimplemented in cachestore_static, cachestore_session, and cachestore_dummy.

◆ cleanup()

cache_store::cleanup ( )

Deprecated:: since 2.5

See also: cache_store::instance_deleted()

Reimplemented in cachestore_dummy.

◆ create_clone()

cache_store::create_clone ( array $details = array() )

inherited

Creates a clone of this store instance ready to be initialised.

This method is used so that a cache store needs only be constructed once. Future requests for an instance of the store will be given a cloned instance.

If you are writing a cache store that isn't compatible with the clone operation you can override this method to handle any situations you want before cloning.

Parameters

array $details An array containing the details of the store from the cache config.

Return values

cache_store

◆ delete()

cache_store::delete ( $key )

abstractinherited

Deletes an item from the cache store.

Parameters

string $key The key to delete.

Return values

bool	Returns true if the operation was a success, false otherwise.

Reimplemented in cachestore_static, cachestore_session, cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, cachestore_file, cachestore_apcu, and cachestore_dummy.

◆ delete_many()

cache_store::delete_many ( array $keys )

abstractinherited

Deletes several keys from the cache in a single action.

Parameters

array $keys The keys to delete

Return values

int	The number of items successfully deleted.

Reimplemented in cachestore_static, cachestore_session, cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, cachestore_file, cachestore_apcu, and cachestore_dummy.

static session_data_store::flush_store_by_id ( $id )

staticprotected

Flushes the data belong to the given store id.

Parameters

string $id

◆ get()

cache_store::get ( $key )

abstractinherited

Retrieves an item from the cache store given its key.

Parameters

string $key The key to retrieve

Return values

mixed The data that was associated with the key, or false if the key did not exist.

Reimplemented in cachestore_static, cachestore_session, cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, cachestore_file, cachestore_apcu, and cachestore_dummy.

◆ get_many()

cache_store::get_many ( $keys )

abstractinherited

Retrieves several items from the cache store in a single transaction.

If not all of the items are available in the cache then the data value for those that are missing will be set to false.

Parameters

array $keys The array of keys to retrieve

Return values

array An array of items from the cache. There will be an item for each key, those that were not in the store will be set to false.

Reimplemented in cachestore_static, cachestore_session, cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, cachestore_file, cachestore_apcu, and cachestore_dummy.

staticinherited

Returns the supported features as a binary flag.

Parameters

array $configuration The configuration of a store to consider specifically.

Return values

int	The supported features.

◆ get_warnings()

cache_store::get_warnings ( )

inherited

Can be overridden to return any warnings this store instance should make to the admin.

This should be used to notify things like configuration conflicts etc. The warnings returned here will be displayed on the cache configuration screen.

Return values

string[] An array of warning strings from the store instance.

Reimplemented in cachestore_memcached.

◆ initialise()

cache_store::initialise ( cache_definition $definition )

abstractinherited

Initialises a new instance of the cache store given the definition the instance is to be used for.

This function should be used to run any definition specific setup the store instance requires. Tasks such as creating storage areas, or creating indexes are best done here.

Its important to note that the initialise method is expected to always succeed. If there are setup tasks that may fail they should be done within the __construct method and should they fail is_ready should return false.

Member Data Documentation

◆ DEREFERENCES_OBJECTS

const cache_store::DEREFERENCES_OBJECTS = 16

inherited

The cache store dereferences objects.

When set, loaders will assume that all data coming from this store has already had all references resolved. So even for complex object structures it will not try to remove references again.

◆ MODE_APPLICATION

const cache_store::MODE_APPLICATION = 1

inherited

Application caches.

These are shared caches.

◆ MODE_REQUEST

const cache_store::MODE_REQUEST = 4

inherited

Request caches.

Static caches really.

◆ MODE_SESSION

const cache_store::MODE_SESSION = 2

inherited

Session caches.

Just access to the PHP session.
