#Yac - Yet Another Cache

Yac is a user data cache based on shared memory for PHP

it can be used to replace APC or local memcached.

Requirement

• PHP 5.2 +

Install

$/path/to/phpize
$./configure --with-php-config=/path/to/php-config
$make && make install

InIs

yac.enable = 1

yac.keys_memory_size = 4M

yac.values_memory_size = 64M

yac.compress_threshold = -1

Constants

YAC_VERSION

YAC_MAX_KEY_LEN = 64

YAC_MAX_VALUE_RAW_LEN = 64M

YAC_MAX_VALUE_COMPRESSED_LEN = 1M

Methods

Yac::__construct

   Yac::__construct([string $prefix = ""])

Constructor of Yac, you can specific a prefix, which will used to prepend to any keys when you doing set/get/delete

<?php
   $yac = new Yac("myproduct_");
?>

Yac::set

   Yac::set($key, $value[, $ttl])
   Yac::set(array $kvs[, $ttl])

Store a value into Yac cache, keys are cache-unique, so storing a second value with the same key will overwrite the original value.

<?php
$yac = new Yac();
$yac->set("foo", "bar");
$yac->set(
    array(
        "dummy" => "foo",
        "dummy2" => "foo",
        )
    );
?>

Yac::get

   Yac::get(array|string $key)

Fetchs a stored variable from the cache. If an array is passed then each element is fetched and returned.

Yac::delete

   Yac::delete(array|string $keys[, $delay=0])

Removes a stored variable from the cache. If delay is specificed, then the value will be delete after $delay seconds.

Yac::info

   Yac::info(void)

Get cache info

<?php
  ....
  var_dump($yac->info());
  /* will return an array like:
  array(11) {
      ["memory_size"]=> int(541065216)   
      ["slots_memory_size"]=> int(4194304)
      ["values_memory_size"]=> int(536870912)
      ["segment_size"]=> int(4194304)     
      ["segment_num"]=> int(128)
      ["miss"]=> int(0)
      ["hits"]=> int(955)
      ["fails"]=> int(0)
      ["kicks"]=> int(0)
      ["slots_size"]=> int(32768)
      ["slots_used"]=> int(955)
  }
