README

This module offers functionality for caching arbitrary values to database.

Technical instructions

After activating the module and defining the maximum cache time in the contao settings, you can retrieve the result for a certain request by using the following code (of course, retrieved from cache if there's already a cached result which isn't outdated):

if (($strValue = DatabaseCache::getValue($strKey)) !== false)
{
    $strResult = $strValue;
}
else
{
    // do some logic in order to create $strResult
    $strResult = someFunction();
    DatabaseCache::cacheValue($strKey, $strResult);
}
