Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ __construct()

cachestore_file::__construct ( $name,
array $configuration = array() )

Constructs the store instance.

Noting that this function is not an initialisation. It is used to prepare the store for use. The store will be initialised when required and will be provided with a cache_definition at that time.

Parameters
string$name
array$configuration

Reimplemented from cache_store.

Member Function Documentation

◆ acquire_lock()

cachestore_file::acquire_lock ( $key,
$ownerid )

Use lock factory to acquire a lock.

Parameters
string$keyLock identifier
string$owneridCache identifier
Return values
bool
Exceptions
cache_exception

Implements cache_is_lockable.

◆ are_requirements_met()

Return values
bool

Implements cache_store_interface.

◆ cache_size_details()

cachestore_file::cache_size_details ( int $samplekeys = 50)

Gets total size for a specific cache.

With the file cache we can just look at the directory listing without having to actually load any files, so the $samplekeys parameter is ignored.

Parameters
int$samplekeysUnused
Return values
stdClassCache details

Reimplemented from cache_store.

◆ can_add_instance()

static cache_store::can_add_instance ( )
staticinherited

Returns true if the user can add an instance of the store plugin.

Return values
bool

Reimplemented in cachestore_dummy, cachestore_session, and cachestore_static.

◆ check_lock_state()

cachestore_file::check_lock_state ( $key,
$ownerid )

Use lock factory to determine the lock state.

Parameters
string$keyLock identifier
string$owneridCache identifier

Implements cache_is_lockable.

◆ cleanup()

cache_store::cleanup ( )
inherited
Deprecated
since 2.5
See also
cache_store\instance_deleted()

Reimplemented in cachestore_dummy.

◆ config_get_configuration_array()

static cachestore_file::config_get_configuration_array ( $data)

array$config

Implements cache_is_configurable.

◆ create_clone()

cache_store::create_clone ( array $details = array())
inherited

Creates a clone of this store instance ready to be initialised.

This method is used so that a cache store needs only be constructed once. Future requests for an instance of the store will be given a cloned instance.

If you are writing a cache store that isn't compatible with the clone operation you can override this method to handle any situations you want before cloning.

Parameters
array$detailsAn array containing the details of the store from the cache config.
Return values
cache_store

Deletes an item from the cache store.

Return values
boolReturns true if the operation was a success, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from cache_store.

◆ delete_many()

Parameters
array$keysThe keys to delete
Return values
intThe number of items successfully deleted.

Reimplemented from cache_store.

Exceptions
coding_exception

◆ estimate_stored_size()

cache_store::estimate_stored_size ( $key,
$value )

This function is not exactly accurate; it does not necessarily take into account all the overheads involved. It is only intended to give a good idea of the relative size of different caches.

The default implementation serializes both key and value and sums the lengths (as a rough estimate which is probably good enough for everything unless the cache offers compression).

Parameters
mixed$keyKey
mixed$valueValue
Return values
intSize in bytes

Reimplemented in cachestore_redis.

◆ file_path_for_key()

cachestore_file::file_path_for_key ( $key,
$create = false )

Returns the file path to use for the given key.

Parameters
string$keyThe key to generate a file path for.
bool$createIf set to the true the directory structure the key requires will be created.
Return values
stringThe full path to the file that stores a particular cache key.

◆ find_by_prefix()

cachestore_file::find_by_prefix ( $prefix)

Finds all of the keys whose keys start with the given prefix.

Parameters
string$prefix

Implements cache_is_searchable.

◆ get()

cachestore_file::get ( $key)

Retrieves an item from the cache store given its key.

◆ get_last_io_bytes()

cachestore_file::get_last_io_bytes ( )

Member Data Documentation

◆ $asyncpurge

bool cachestore_file::$asyncpurge = false
protected

Set to true if new cache revision directory needs to be created.

Old directory will be purged asynchronously via Schedule task.

◆ $lockfactory

core lock file_lock_factory cachestore_file::$lockfactory = null
protected

Instance of file_lock_factory configured to create locks in the cache directory.

$lockfactory

◆ $locks

array cachestore_file::$locks = []
protected

List of current locks.

$locks

◆ $singledirectory

bool cachestore_file::$singledirectory = false
protected

Set to true if we should store files within a single directory.

By default we use a nested structure in order to reduce the chance of conflicts and avoid any file system limitations such as maximum files per directory.

◆ DEREFERENCES_OBJECTS

const cache_store::DEREFERENCES_OBJECTS = 16
inherited

The cache store dereferences objects.

When set, loaders will assume that all data coming from this store has already had all references resolved. So even for complex object structures it will not try to remove references again.

◆ MODE_APPLICATION

const cache_store::MODE_APPLICATION = 1
inherited

Application caches.

These are shared caches.

◆ MODE_REQUEST

const cache_store::MODE_REQUEST = 4
inherited

Request caches.

Static caches really.

◆ MODE_SESSION

const cache_store::MODE_SESSION = 2
inherited

Session caches.

Just access to the PHP session.
