How to do ttl_cache + custom key ?

[wimglenn]

Thanks for your work on this clean and cool library!

I like being able to specify the hash key with

@cached(cache, key=mykey)

I also like the cachetool.func conveniences such as

@ttl_cache(maxsize=512, ttl=60*5)

Could you add a bit more feature parity in these interfaces? E.g. a way to specify the hashkey for @ttl_cache and/or a way to specify a ttl for @cached. Cheers.

The cachetools.func decorators are there to mimic the standard library functools.lru_cache, mostly to provide some sort of migration path. So no, sorry, you're limited to typed=True or typed=False regarding choice of hash key, to keep it simple.

OK, no problem. It ends up being pretty clean anyway with the existing APIs:

from cachetools import cached 
from cachetools.ttl import TTLCache   
cache = TTLCache(maxsize=512, ttl=60*5)   

@cached(cache, key=mykey)
def myfunc(...):
    ...
