Cache store

Provides a cache store for your Ruby web framework of choice.

How to use with Rails

How to use with Merb

dependency “jodosha-redis-store”, “0.2.0” dependency(“merb-cache”, merb_gems_version) do Merb::Cache.setup do register(:redis, Merb::Cache::RedisStore, :servers => [“127.0.0.1:6379”]) end end

How to use with Sinatra

require ‘rubygems’ require ‘sinatra’ require ‘jodosha-redis-store’ class MyApp < Sinatra::Base register Sinatra::Cache get ‘/hi’ do cache.fetch(“greet”) { “Hello, World!” } end end

Rack::Cache

Provides a Redis store for HTTP caching. See http://github.com/rtomayko/rack-cache
