Gem for caching in Wego Rails apps

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'cacheable'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install cacheable

To include the caching feature for of the gem in your Rails apps models, create config/initializer/cacheable.rb with the following line:

ActiveRecord::Base.send(:include, Cacheable::ActiveRecordExtensions)

Cacheable::CacheVersion.namespace = 'application_name'
Cacheable::CacheVersion.init

In your model, add the functions that you want to cache the data

caches_method :method_name
caches_method :method_name, expires_in: 1.day #defalut expires_in is 1 day
caches_method :method_name, include_locale: true #default include_locale is false

In order to prevent too many request sent to caching storate (memcache) we will store cache in-memory by default. In-memory storage is only available per request. If you want to disable in-memory can set like this

caches_method :method_name, memoized: false

Need to use two separate define functions for instance and class methods (singeton methods)

class Test
    caches_method :a_defined_method
    caches_class_method :a_defined_class_method
    
    def a_defined_method
      #
    end
    
    def self.a_defined_class_method
      #
    end
end

caches_method :method_name or caches_class_method :method_name will only generate cached method with same name method_name for caching and delete_method_name_cache for clearing cache.
