sag-py-cache-decorator 0.0.3253.1

A decorator to cache method call results with similar parameters

sag_py_cache_decorator

A cache annotation that can be used to cache calls to a method

What it does

• Caches calls to methods if the same parameters are used
• Removes the least recently used cache item if a optional maximum is reached
• Supports sync and async functions
• Possibility to skip the cache by parameter
• Possibility to clear the cache entirely or for one set of parameters

Installation

pip install sag-py-cache-decorator

How to use

from sag_py_cache_decorator.lru_cache import lru_cache

@lru_cache(maxsize=3)
def my_function(str: str, str2: str) -> str:
    return f"{str}-{str2}"

This is the regular use case of the cache.

Available decorator arguments:

Argument	Description	Default
maxsize	If this size is reached, the least recently used cache item will be removed. Can be set to None to have a unlimited cache.	128

from sag_py_cache_decorator.lru_cache import lru_cache

@lru_cache(maxsize=3)
def my_function(
    str: str,
    lru_clear_cache: bool = False,
) -> str:
    return f"{str}-{str2}"

my_function("one")
my_function("two")
# Before executing the next function the cache is cleared and then
# rebuilt with the results of three and four because of lru_clear_cache = True
my_function("three", lru_clear_cache = True)
my_function("four")

Available function arguments:

Argument	Description	Default
lru_use_cache	If set to false, the function call skips the cache. Existing cached items are ignored and new ones are not written for that call.	True
lru_clear_cache	If set to true, the cache is cleared entirely before executing the method. The result of the call is then cached again.	False
lru_clear_arg_cache	If set to true, the result for this set of parameters is removed from cache(if present). The result of the call is then cached again.	False
