Laravel Eloquent Query Cache

Laravel Eloquent Query Cache is a package that provides caching for Eloquent queries.

Installation

To install this package, run the following command:

composer require renoki-co/laravel-eloquent-query-cache

Usage

To use this package, you can simply add the Cacheable trait to your Eloquent models:

use RenokiCo\EloquentQueryCache\Cacheable;

class User extends Model {
    use Cacheable;
}

This will cache all queries performed on the User model for 60 seconds by default. You can customize the cache duration by defining a $cacheLifetime property on your model:

use RenokiCo\EloquentQueryCache\Cacheable;

class User extends Model {
    use Cacheable;

    protected $cacheLifetime = 300; // Cache queries for 5 minutes.
}

You can also cache specific queries by using the remember method:

$users = User::remember(120)->get();

This will cache the get() query for 120 seconds.

Configuration

To publish the configuration file, run the following command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="RenokiCo\EloquentQueryCache\CacheServiceProvider" --tag="config"

This will create a eloquent-query-cache.php file in your config directory. You can use this file to customize the package configuration.
