A simple in-memory cache, for nodejs and the browser, with time based expiration policies.
npm install simple-in-memory-cacheA simple in-memory cache, for nodejs and the browser, with time based expiration policies.
``sh`
npm install --save simple-in-memory-cache
Quickly set and get from the cache:
`ts
import { createCache } from 'simple-in-memory-cache';
const { set, get } = createCache();
set('meaning of life', 42);
const meaningOfLife = get('meaning of life'); // returns 42
`
Items in the cache live 5 minutes until expiration, by default.
You can change this default when creating the cache:
`ts`
const { set, get } = createCache({ defaultSecondsUntilExpiration: 10 * 60 }); // updates the default seconds until expiration to 10 minutes
And you can also override this when setting an item:
`ts``
set('acceleration due to gravity', 9.81, { secondsUntilExpiration: Infinity }); // gravity will not change, so we dont need to expire it
