This library aims for simplicity over specialization. All caches contain the same minimum interface which consists on the following functions:
add
: Only adds key/value if key does not exist.get
: Retrieve value identified by key.set
: Sets key/value.multi_get
: Retrieves multiple key/values.multi_set
: Sets multiple key/values.exists
: Returns True if key exists False otherwise.increment
: Increment the value stored in the given key.delete
: Deletes key and returns number of deleted items.clear
: Clears the items stored.raw
: Executes the specified command using the underlying client... role:: python(code) :language: python

Using a cache is as simple as
.. code-block:: python
>>> import asyncio
>>> from aiocache import Cache
>>> cache = Cache(Cache.MEMORY) # Here you can also use Cache.REDIS and Cache.MEMCACHED, default is Cache.MEMORY
>>> with asyncio.Runner() as runner:
>>> runner.run(cache.set('key', 'value'))
True
>>> runner.run(cache.get('key'))
'value'
Or as a decorator
.. code-block:: python
import asyncio
from collections import namedtuple
from aiocache import cached, Cache
from aiocache.serializers import PickleSerializer
# With this we can store python objects in backends like Redis!
Result = namedtuple('Result', "content, status")
@cached(
ttl=10, cache=Cache.REDIS, key="key", serializer=PickleSerializer(), port=6379, namespace="main")
async def cached_call():
print("Sleeping for three seconds zzzz.....")
await asyncio.sleep(3)
return Result("content", 200)
async def run():
await cached_call()
await cached_call()
await cached_call()
cache = Cache(Cache.REDIS, endpoint="127.0.0.1", port=6379, namespace="main")
await cache.delete("key")
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(run())
The recommended approach to instantiate a new cache is using the Cache
constructor. However you can also instantiate directly using aiocache.RedisCache
, aiocache.SimpleMemoryCache
or aiocache.MemcachedCache
.
You can also setup cache aliases so its easy to reuse configurations
.. code-block:: python
import asyncio
from aiocache import caches
caches.set_config({ 'default': { 'cache': "aiocache.SimpleMemoryCache", 'serializer': { 'class': "aiocache.serializers.StringSerializer" } }, 'redis_alt': { 'cache': "aiocache.RedisCache", 'endpoint': "127.0.0.1", 'port': 6379, 'timeout': 1, 'serializer': { 'class': "aiocache.serializers.PickleSerializer" }, 'plugins': [ {'class': "aiocache.plugins.HitMissRatioPlugin"}, {'class': "aiocache.plugins.TimingPlugin"} ] } })
async def default_cache(): cache = caches.get('default') # This always returns the SAME instance await cache.set("key", "value") assert await cache.get("key") == "value"
async def alt_cache(): cache = caches.create('redis_alt') # This creates a NEW instance on every call await cache.set("key", "value") assert await cache.get("key") == "value"
async def test_alias(): await default_cache() await alt_cache()
await caches.get("redis_alt").delete("key")
if name == "main": asyncio.run(test_alias())
Aiocache provides 3 main entities:
plugins: Implement a hooks system that allows to execute extra behavior before and after of each command.
If you are missing an implementation of backend, serializer or plugin you think it could be interesting for the package, do not hesitate to open a new issue.

Those 3 entities combine during some of the cache operations to apply the desired command (backend), data transformation (serializer) and pre/post hooks (plugins). To have a better vision of what happens, here you can check how set
function works in aiocache
