README

This is a package which adds wildcard support to Laravel Cache by replacing/overriding laravel Cache stores to include wildcard support where applicable.

This package replaces/overrides these Cache Stores:

• ApcStore
• ArrayStore
• DatabaseStore
• SessionStore

This package also adds a new methods which are used behind the scenes to:

• ApcWrapper

Installation

Require this package with composer.

composer require klavax/laravel-wildcard-cache

Also you will probably want to "silence" Ambiguous class resolution warnings and that can be done if you include exclude-from-classmap in your composer.json autoload section:

{
    "autoload": {
        "exclude-from-classmap": [
            "vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Cache/ApcStore.php",
            "vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Cache/ApcWrapper.php",
            "vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Cache/ArrayStore.php",
            "vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Cache/DatabaseStore.php",
            "vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Cache/SessionStore.php"
        ]
    }
}

Usage

If you are using apc, array, database or session cache stores then now you can use {any} token in Cache::forget calls like so:

Cache::forget("item_{any}");
Cache::forget("someOtherItem_{any}_nested_{any}");
Cache::memo()->forget("this_{any}_works")

Extra Info

APCu support is experimental, documentation for it does document an APCUIterator class, but i have not been able to test it successfully...
