cacheman-mongodb


MongoDB standalone caching library for Node.JS and also cache engine for cacheman.

This is a fork

Fork from https://github.com/cayasso/cacheman-mongo with the following differences,

- Removed pre-commit from dependencies.
- Updated dependencies.

Instalation

`` bash
npm install cacheman-mongodb --save
`

Usage

`javascript
var CachemanMongo = require('cacheman-mongodb');
var cache = new CachemanMongo();

// set the value
cache.set('my key', { foo: 'bar' }, function (error) {

if (error) throw error;

// get the value
cache.get('my key', function (error, value) {

if (error) throw error;

console.log(value); //-> {foo:"bar"}

// delete entry
cache.del('my key', function (error){

if (error) throw error;

console.log('value deleted');
});

});
});
`

API

$3

Create cacheman-mongodb instance. options are mongo valid options including port, host, database and collection.

`javascript
var options = {
port: 9999,
host: '127.0.0.1',
username: 'beto',
password: 'my-p@ssw0rd'
database: 'my-cache-db',
collection: 'my-collection',
compression: false
};

var cache = new CachemanMongo(options);
`

You can also pass a valid mongodb connection string as first arguments like this:

`javascript
var options = {
collection: 'account'
};

var cache = new CachemanMongo('mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/blog', options);
`

Or pass a mongodb db instance directly as client:

`javascript
MongoClient.connect('mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/blog', function (err, db) {
var cache = new CachemanMongo(db, { collection: 'account' });

// or
cache = new CachemanMongo({ client: db, collection: 'account' });
});
`

#### Cache Value Compression

MongoDB has a 16MB document size limit, and, currently, does not have built in support for compression. You can enable cache value compression for large Buffers by setting the compression options to true, this will use the native node zlib module to compress with gzip. It only compresses Buffers because of the complexity in correctly decompressing and deserializing the variety of data structures and string encodings.

Thanks to @Jared314 for adding this feature.

`javascript
var cache = new Cache({ compression: true });
cache.set('test1', new Buffer("something big"), function (err) {...});

`


$3

Stores or updates a value.

`javascript
cache.set('foo', { a: 'bar' }, function (err, value) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(value); //-> {a:'bar'}
});
`

Or add a TTL(Time To Live) in seconds like this:

`javascript
// key will expire in 60 seconds
cache.set('foo', { a: 'bar' }, 60, function (err, value) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(value); //-> {a:'bar'}
});
`

$3

Retreives a value for a given key, if there is no value for the given key a null value will be returned.

`javascript
cache.get('foo', function (err, value) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log(value);
});
`

$3

Deletes a key out of the cache.

`javascript
cache.del('foo', function (err) {
if (err) throw err;
// foo was deleted
});
`

$3

Clear the cache entirely, throwing away all values.

`javascript
cache.clear(function (err) {
if (err) throw err;
// cache is now clear
});
`

Run tests

` bash
$ make test
