type Cache
Cache is a fast and thread-safe cache implementation with expiration.
type Cache[T any] struct {
Options Options
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
func New
func New[T any](options ...Options) *Cache[T]
New returns a new Cache. The default Expiration time is 0, which means no Expiration.
Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"time"
)
func main() {
// Create a cache for string values, without any options.
cache.New[string]()
// Create a cache for string values, with options.
cache.New[string](cache.Options{
DefaultExpiration: time.Second * 10,
})
// Create a cache for int values, without any options.
cache.New[int]()
// Create a cache for int values, with options.
cache.New[int](cache.Options{
DefaultExpiration: time.Second * 10,
})
// Create a cache for any values, without any options.
cache.New[any]()
// Create a cache for any values, with options.
cache.New[any](cache.Options{
DefaultExpiration: time.Second * 10,
})
}
func (*Cache[T]) Close
func (c *Cache[T]) Close()
Close purges the cache and stops the auto purge goroutine, if active.
Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string]()
// Fill the cache with some values.
c.Set("1", "one")
c.Set("2", "two")
c.Set("3", "three")
// Close the cache.
c.Close()
// Get the size.
fmt.Println(c.Size())
}
0
func (*Cache[T]) Contains
func (c *Cache[T]) Contains(key string) bool
Contains returns true if the key is in the cache, and the key is not expired.
Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string]()
// Fill the cache with some values.
c.Set("1", "one")
c.Set("2", "two")
c.Set("3", "three")
// Check if the cache contains a key.
fmt.Println(c.Contains("1"))
fmt.Println(c.Contains("4"))
}
true
false
func (*Cache[T]) Delete
func (c *Cache[T]) Delete(key string)
Delete removes the key from the cache.
Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string]()
// Fill the cache with some values.
c.Set("1", "one")
c.Set("2", "two")
c.Set("3", "three")
// Delete a key.
c.Delete("3")
// Get the size.
fmt.Println(c.Size())
}
2
func (*Cache[T]) EnableAutoPurge
func (c *Cache[T]) EnableAutoPurge(purgeInterval ...time.Duration) *Cache[T]
EnableAutoPurge starts a goroutine that purges expired keys from the cache. The interval is the time between purges. If the interval is 0, the default interval of the cache options is used. If the cache options do not specify a default interval, the default interval is 1 minute.
func (*Cache[T]) Expired
func (c *Cache[T]) Expired(key string) bool
Expired returns true if the key is expired.
Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string](cache.Options{
DefaultExpiration: time.Millisecond * 10,
})
// Set a value for a key.
c.Set("1", "one")
// Check if the key is expired.
fmt.Println(c.Expired("1"))
// Sleep for 10ms to let the key expire.
time.Sleep(time.Millisecond * 10)
// Check if the key is expired.
fmt.Println(c.Expired("1"))
}
false
true
func (*Cache[T]) Get
func (c *Cache[T]) Get(key string) T
Get returns the value for a key. If the key does not exist, nil is returned. If the key is expired, the zero value is returned and the key is deleted.
Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string]()
// Set a value for a key.
c.Set("1", "one")
// Get the value for a key.
fmt.Println(c.Get("1"))
}
one
func (*Cache[T]) GetEntry
func (c *Cache[T]) GetEntry(key string) *Entry[T]

"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string](cache.Options{
DefaultExpiration: time.Second * 10,
})
// Set a value for a key.
c.Set("1", "one")
// Get the entry for a key.

fmt.Println(entry.Value)
fmt.Println(entry.Expiration)
}

}
10s
func (*Cache[T]) GetOrSet
func (c *Cache[T]) GetOrSet(key string, callback func() T, expiration ...time.Duration) T

Example
package main
import (
"atomicgo.dev/cache"
"fmt"
)
func main() {
c := cache.New[string]()
// Try to get or set a value for a key.
