NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::CHI - Use CHI caches within Mojolicious

SYNOPSIS

# Mojolicious
$app->plugin(CHI => {
  MyCache => {
    driver     => 'FastMmap',
    root_dir   => '/cache',
    cache_size => '20m'
  }
});

# Mojolicious::Lite
plugin 'CHI' => {
  default => {
    driver => 'Memory',
    global => 1
  }
};

# In Controllers:
$c->chi('MyCache')->set(my_key => 'This is my value');
print $c->chi('MyCache')->get('my_key');

# Using the default cache
$c->chi->set(from_memory => 'With love!');
print $c->chi->get('from_memory');

DESCRIPTION

Mojolicious::Plugin::CHI is a simple plugin to work with CHI caches within Mojolicious.

METHODS

register

# Mojolicious
$app->plugin(CHI => {
  MyCache => {
    driver     => 'FastMmap',
    root_dir   => '/cache',
    cache_size => '20m'
  },
  default => {
    driver => 'Memory',
    global => 1
  },
  namespaces => 1
});

# Mojolicious::Lite
plugin 'CHI' => {
  default => { driver => 'Memory', global => 1 }
};

# Or in your config file
{
  CHI => {
    default => {
      driver => 'Memory',
      global => 1
    }
  }
}

Called when registering the plugin. On creation, the plugin accepts a hash of cache names associated with CHI objects. In addition to that, you can make all cache handles qualified CHI namespaces by setting the namespaces parameter to a true value.

All parameters can be set either on registration or as part of the configuration file with the key CHI.

Note: Currently, the namespaces flag is off by default and cache handles are independent from namespaces. This will change in an upcoming release. To prevent cache rebuilding in the future, set namespaces to a true value.

HELPERS

chi

# In Controllers:
$c->chi('MyCache')->set(my_key => 'This is my value', '10 min');
print $c->chi('MyCache')->get('my_key');
print $c->chi->get('from_default_cache');

Returns a CHI handle if registered. Accepts the name of the registered cache. If no cache handle name is given, a cache handle name default is assumed.

DEPENDENCIES

Mojolicious, CHI.

Note: CHI has a lot of dependencies. It is thus not recommended to use this plugin in a CGI environment.
