ApcCache provides APC caching in terms of an application component.

To use this application component, the APC PHP extension must be loaded. Alternatively APCu PHP extension could be used via setting useApcu to true. In order to enable APC or APCu for CLI you should add "apc.enable_cli = 1" to your php.ini.

See yii\caching\Cache for common cache operations that ApcCache supports.

For more details and usage information on Cache, see the guide article on caching.

Property Details

$useApcu public property (available since version 2.0.7)

Whether to use apcu or apc as the underlying caching extension. If true, apcu will be used. If false, apc will be used. Defaults to false.

public boolean $useApcu false

Method Details

addValue() protected method

Stores a value identified by a key into cache if the cache does not contain this key.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

protected boolean addValue ( $key, $value, $duration )
$key string

The key identifying the value to be cached

$value mixed

The value to be cached. Most often it's a string. If you have disabled $serializer, it could be something else.

$duration integer

The number of seconds in which the cached value will expire. 0 means never expire.

return boolean

True if the value is successfully stored into cache, false otherwise

addValues() protected method

Adds multiple key-value pairs to cache.

protected array addValues ( $data, $duration )
$data array

Array where key corresponds to cache key while value is the value stored

$duration integer

The number of seconds in which the cached values will expire. 0 means never expire.

return array

Array of failed keys

deleteValue() protected method

Deletes a value with the specified key from cache This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

protected boolean deleteValue ( $key )
$key string

The key of the value to be deleted

return boolean

If no error happens during deletion

exists() public method

Checks whether a specified key exists in the cache.

This can be faster than getting the value from the cache if the data is big. Note that this method does not check whether the dependency associated with the cached data, if there is any, has changed. So a call to get() may return false while exists returns true.

public boolean exists ( $key )
$key mixed

A key identifying the cached value. This can be a simple string or a complex data structure consisting of factors representing the key.

return boolean

True if a value exists in cache, false if the value is not in the cache or expired.

flushValues() protected method

Deletes all values from cache.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

protected boolean flushValues ( )
return boolean

Whether the flush operation was successful.

getValue() protected method

Retrieves a value from cache with a specified key.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

protected mixed|false getValue ( $key )
$key string

A unique key identifying the cached value

return mixed|false

The value stored in cache, false if the value is not in the cache or expired.

getValues() protected method

Retrieves multiple values from cache with the specified keys.

protected array getValues ( $keys )
$keys array

A list of keys identifying the cached values

return array

A list of cached values indexed by the keys

init() public method

Initializes this application component.

It checks if extension required is loaded.

public void init ( )
setValue() protected method

Stores a value identified by a key in cache.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

protected boolean setValue ( $key, $value, $duration )
$key string

The key identifying the value to be cached

$value mixed

The value to be cached. Most often it's a string. If you have disabled $serializer, it could be something else.

$duration integer

The number of seconds in which the cached value will expire. 0 means never expire.

return boolean

True if the value is successfully stored into cache, false otherwise.

setValues() protected method

Stores multiple key-value pairs in cache.

protected array setValues ( $data, $duration )
$data array

Array where key corresponds to cache key while value

$duration integer

The number of seconds in which the cached values will expire. 0 means never expire.

return array

Array of failed keys
