README

Laravel Redis cache store with pattern/tag based invalidation, plus a trait for clearing cache from model observers.

Installation

composer require jishan-shk/laravel-redis-cache

Supports Laravel 10, 11, 12 and 13 with either the phpredis or predis client.

The service provider is auto-discovered. It overrides the redis cache driver so redis stores support keys() and forgetByPattern(). Laravel still builds the store, so options such as lock_connection and serializable_classes keep working. Set CACHE_STORE=redis (or CACHE_DRIVER=redis on Laravel 10).

Keys are found with SCAN, never KEYS. Redis Cluster connections are not supported.

Usage

Tagged list cache

use JishanShk\RedisCache\Services\ListCacheService;

$events = app(ListCacheService::class)->remember('events:list', ['events'], 3600, fn () => Event::all());

// Forget every key tagged "events"
clearCacheByPattern('events');
invalidateListCacheTags(['events', 'calendar']);

Clearing cache from an observer

use JishanShk\RedisCache\Traits\ClearsModelCache;

class EventObserver
{
    use ClearsModelCache;

    protected $cacheTags = ['events'];
}

The tags are cleared on saved and deleted. See stubs/EventObserver.php.

Suppressing invalidation

use JishanShk\RedisCache\Support\CacheInvalidationSuppressor;

CacheInvalidationSuppressor::suppress(function () {
    // bulk writes; observers won't clear cache here
});
clearCacheByPattern('events'); // clear once afterwards

Tags are matched literally, so a tag may contain characters like * or ?.

Pattern helpers on the store

Patterns use Redis glob syntax and are matched against cache keys within the store's prefix.

Cache::getStore()->keys('users:*');            // ['users:1', 'users:2'], without prefixes
Cache::getStore()->forgetByPattern('users:*');
Cache::store('other')->getStore()->forgetByPattern('*');

Flush by raw pattern

use JishanShk\RedisCache\Cache\FlushRedis;

new FlushRedis('events:');          // keys ending in "events:" on the default store
new FlushRedis('events:*', 'other'); // on the "other" store

FlushRedis does nothing when the store is not a redis store, such as the array store in tests.

Testing

The test suite needs a running Redis server:

composer install
REDIS_HOST=127.0.0.1 REDIS_CLIENT=phpredis composer test
