NAME

Class::Method::Cache::FastMmap - Cache method results using Cache::FastMmap

VERSION

version v0.2.0

SYNOPSIS

package MyClass;

use Class::Method::Cache::FastMmap;

sub my_method {
  ...
}

cache 'my_method' => (
   serializer  => 'storable',
   expire_time => '1h',
);

DESCRIPTION

This package allows you to easily cache the results of a method call using Cache::FastMmap.

EXPORTS

cache

cache $method => %options;

This wraps the $method with a function that caches the return value.

It assumes that the method returns a defined scalar value and that the method arguments are serialisable.

The %options are as follows:

cache

is used to specify a different (shared) cache. You may use another caching class, so long as it provides get and set methods.

key_cb

is used to provide a custom key-generation function. If none is specified, then Object::Signature is used.

The function should expect a single argument with an array reference corresponding to the original method call parameters:

$key_cb->( [ $self, @_ ] );

Remaining %options are passed to the constructor for Cache::FastMmap.

prefix

This is the prefix too prepend to the key. It defaults to the class and method name when the "cache" is specified, or an empty string otherwise.
