django-cache-manager
=====================

Simple cache manager for django models that caches querysets for a model. Cache manager will cache any query that has been seen for a model. Model cache is evicted for any updates/deletes to the model. This manager is useful for models that don't change often.

## Installation

```sh
pip install django-cache-manager
```

### Caching strategy
* Cache results for a model on load.
* Evict cache for model on update.


## Usage

Add to installed apps
```
INSTALLED_APPS = (
...
'django_cache_manager',
...
)
```
Define cache backend for `django_cache_manager.cache_backend` in `settings.py`. The backend can be any cache backend
that implements django cache API.

```
CACHES = {
'django_cache_manager.cache_backend': {
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211',
}
}
```

```
from django_cache_manager.cache_manager import CacheManager
class MyModel(models.Model):

#set cache manager as default
objects = CacheManager()

```


## Django shell
To run django shell with sample models defined in tests.
```sh
make shell
```
Sample models
```
from tests.models import Manufacturer
from tests.models import Car
from tests.models import Driver
m = Manufacturer(name='Tesla')
m.save()
c = Car(make=m, model='Model S', year=2015)
c.save()
d = Driver(first_name ='ABC', last_name='XYZ')
d.save()
d.cars.add(c)
drivers = Driver.objects.select_related('car', 'manufacturer').all()
```

## Testing

To run tests

```sh
make test
```
