API

class DiskLRUCache:
    """Disk-based LRU cache using SQLite."""

    def get(self, key: str) -> str | None:
        """Returns the value associated with the given key, or None if the key is not in the cache."""

    def get_json(self, key: str) -> Any:
        """Returns the value associated with the given key, or None if the key is not in the cache."""

    def put(self, key: str, value: str) -> None:
        """Sets the value associated with the given key."""

    def put_json(self, key: str, val: Any) -> None:
        """Sets the value associated with the given key."""

    def delete(self, key) -> None:
        """Deletes the given key from the cache."""

    def purge(self, timestamp) -> None:
        """Purges all elements less than the timestamp."""

    def clear(self) -> None:
        """Clears the cache."""
