ORDENT / CACHE-URL-REDIS

AIO cache management service based on URL and Auth JWT Implementation.

How To Use

1. Install the package via composer

composer require ordent/cache-url-redis

2. Implement the providers in your app configurations at config/app.php

'providers' => [
  Ordent\CacheURLRedis\Providers\URLCacheProvider::class
]

3. Add a constant in the start of your bootstart/app.php to measure the execution time of your api.

define('EXEC_TIME_START', microtime(true));

4. Add our middleware in App\Http\Kernel to short circuit the computation process to redis when the URL key is found.

protected $middleware = [
  Ordent\CacheURLRedis\Middleware\URLCacheMiddleware::class
]

5. Don't forget to set up your CACHE env implementation.

  CACHE_DRIVER=redis

Output

1. We measure and deliver the endpoint execution time via response header X-Elapsed-Time.
2. You need to send a Header in order to use the caching mechanism. If the header is not found on the request, the request will be computed normally. The header you need to set is X-Cache-URL with either value of with-auth or without-auth.
3. When the value without-auth is being used, the application will short circuit the computation process to Redis with finding the key of request URL.
4. However if the value with-auth is used, the application will use the Redis with key format : {application-url}:{authorization-header-value} with authorization-header-value is your JWT token with Bearer format removed.
5. As of now the cache will last 60 minutes and won't cache another value unless you use header X-Cache-URL-Invalidate, you can use it to invalidate the cache value after transaction or any other database change.
