# Banker
A Caching library implementing the PSR-6 and PSR-16 interfaces for several common cache backends
## Cache Backends
* Apcu
* Memcached
* Redis
* Null - no persistence
### Basic Usage (SimpleCache/PSR-16)
```php
<?php
// $config is the configuration array
// $logger is an optional psr/log compatible logger
$cache = new Aviat\Banker\Teller($config, $logger);
// Get a value from the cache, returning $defaultValue
// if the value doesn't exist in the cache
$value = $cache->get($key, $defaultValue);
// Save a new value at the specified key
$saved = $cache->set($key, 'newValue');
```
### Basic Usage (Pool/PSR-6)
```php
<?php
// Create the pool
// $config is the configuration array
// $logger is an optional psr/log compatible logger
$pool = new Aviat\Banker\Pool($config, $logger);
// Grab an item from the cache
$item = $pool->getItem('foo');
// Was there a cache hit?
if ( ! $item->isHit())
{
// ... Generation of value to cache
$item->set($value);
$item->save();
}
else
{
$value = $item->get();
}
```
#### Configuration / Connection array
The config array passed to the Pool class constructor determines
which server to connect to. Regardless of the backend, the basic
structure is like so:
```php
<?php
$config = [
'driver' => 'null', // null, apcu, redis, memcached
'connection' => [
// Optional (For some drivers):
// driver setup, see below for the structure for each
// driver
],
'options' => [
// Optional:
// Set additional driver-specific options, like persistence for
// Memcached, or a prefix for Redis keys
]
];
```
Below are the connection arrays for each backend:
Memcached:
```php
<?php
$config['connection'] = [
'host' => 'localhost', // hostname or socket
'port' => 11211, // Port needs to be 0 if socket
'persistent' => false, // Use persistent connection
];
```
Redis:
See [Predis](https://github.com/nrk/predis#connecting-to-redis) documentation. An empty array will connect to localhost on port 6379.
Null, Apcu:
No connection parameters
