What storages can be used:

Memcached
APCu
Redis
Couchbase
MongoDB
CacheStub (stub for caching)

All storage objects have one interface, so you can switch them without changing the working code.

Features

One interface for all storages - you can change storage without changing your code
Tagging cache (approach versioning and grouping)
Locking - "race condition" ("dog-pile" or "cache miss storm") effects are excluded
Serializer for value (json or PHP-serializer)
Automatic unserialization
Standalone module/component for Rock Framework

Installation

From the Command Line:

composer require romeoz/rock-cache

or in your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "romeoz/rock-cache": "*"
    }
}

Quick Start

####Memcached

$config = [
    'hashKey' => CacheInterface::HASH_MD5, // Default: HASH_MD5
    'serializer' => CacheInterface::SERIALIZE_JSON // Default: SERIALIZE_PHP - php serializator
];
$memcached = new \rock\cache\Memcached($config); // or \rock\cache\versioning\Memcached for approach versioning

$tags = ['tag_1', 'tag_2'];
$value = ['foo', 'bar'];
$expire = 0; // If use expire "0", then time to live infinitely
$memcached->set('key_1', $value, $expire, $tags);

// automatic unserialization
$memcached->get('key_1'); // result: ['foo', 'bar'];

$memcached->flush(); // Invalidate all items in the cache

####MongoDB

$connection = new \rock\mongodb\Connection;
$collection = $connection->getCollection('cache')
$collection->createIndex('id', ['unique' => true]);
$collection->createIndex('expire', ['expireAfterSeconds' => 0]); // create TTL index

$config = [
    'storage' => $connection,
    'cacheCollection' => 'cache'
];
$mongoCache = new \rock\cache\MongoCache($config);

...

####Locking key

Race conditions can occur in multi-threaded mode. To avoid the effect, you need to install a lock on the key.

$memcached = new \rock\cache\Memcached

$value = $memcached->get('key_1');
if ($value !== false) {
    return $value;
}

if ($memcached->lock('key_1')) {
    
    // the query to DBMS or other...
    
    $memcached->set('key_1', 'foo');
    $memcached->unlock('key_1');
}

Demo

Install Docker or askubuntu
docker run --name demo -d -p 8080:80 romeoz/docker-rock-cache
Open demo http://localhost:8080/

Requirements

You can use each storage separately, requirements are individually for storages.

PHP 5.4+ and 7.0+
Redis 2.8/3.0/3.2/4.0. Should be installed apt-get install redis-server or docker run --name redis -d -p 6379:6379 romeoz/docker-redis:4.0 (recommended). Also should be installed PHP extension apt-get install php-redis
Memcached. Should be installed apt-get install memcached or docker run --name memcached -d -p 11211:11211 romeoz/docker-memcached (recommended). Also should be installed php-extension Memcache apt-get install php-memcache or Memcached apt-get install php-memcached.

php-extension Memcached require dependencies

APCu. Should be installed apt-get install php-apcu.

For PHP 5.6 and lower allowed pecl-extensions APCu 4.0 and lower. Example installation.

Couchbase DB 4.x.x. PHP 5.6 or higher, php-extension couchbase 2.3.x-2.4.x. Step-by-step installation or docker run --name couchbase -d couchbase/server:community-4.1.1 (Example installation).
MongoDB 2.6-3.0. For using MongoDB as storage required Rock MongoDB: composer require romeoz/rock-mongodb

All unbolded dependencies is optional

There is a ready docker-container: docker run --name phpfpm_full -d romeoz/docker-phpfpm:5.6-full. But, it may be redundant for you because of the many of installed pecl-extensions

Storages comparison

Redis is the best key-value storage for cache. Use Couchbase if you need fault-tolerant and very easy scalable cluster and if you can afford it (recommended hardware requirements). Also, data in Redis and Couchbase storages will be restored even after server reboot.

Differences between the approaches a tagging

###Grouping tags

Fastest method, but there is a possibility of overflow cache.

Set a value:

$cache = new \rock\cache\Memcached;

$cache->set('key_1', 'text_1', 0, ['tag_1', 'tag_2']);
$cache->set('key_2', 'text_2', 0, ['tag_1']);

View in memory:

key_1: text_1
key_2: text_2

tag_1: [key_1, key_2]
tag_2: [key_1]

Removing tag:

$cache->removeTag('tag_2');

View in memory:

key_2: text_2

tag_1: [key_1, key_2]

###Versioning tags

Is the best practice, but slower than the approach with the grouping tags, because when getting the cache containing tags, sent multiple requests to compare versions. There is no cache overflows.

References: nablas by D.Koterov (RUS) or "Reset group caches and tagging" by A.Smirnov (RUS).

Set a value:

$cache = new \rock\cache\versioning\Memcached;

$cache->set('key_1', 'text_1', 0, ['tag_1', 'tag_2']);
$cache->set('key_2', 'text_2', 0, ['tag_1']);

View in memory:

key_1: [
    value : text_1,
    tags : [
        tag_1 : 0.20782200 1403858079,
        tag_2 : 0.20782200 1403858079
    ]
]
// tag : microtime

key_2: [
    value : text_2,
    tags : [
        tag_1 : 0.20782200 1403858079,
    ]
]

tag_1: 0.20782200 1403858079
tag_2: 0.20782200 1403858079

Removing tag:

$cache->removeTag('tag_2');

View in memory:

key_1: [
    value : text_1,
    tags : [
        tag_1 : 0.20782200 1403858079,
        tag_2 : 0.20782200 1403858079
    ]
]
key_2: [
    value : text_2,
    tags : [
        tag_1 : 0.20782200 1403858079,
    ]
]

tag_1: 0.20782200 1403858079
tag_2: 0.29252400 1403858537

Returns value:

$cache->get('key_1');
// result: false

View in memory:

key_2: [
    value : text_2,
    tags : [
        tag_1 : 0.20782200 1403858079,
    ]
]

tag_1: 0.20782200 1403858079
