Mikro ORM Redis Cache Adapter
This is mikro orm redis cache adapter that uses v8.serialize
and
v8.deserialize
rather than JSON.stringify
and JSON.parse
.
Quick Start
After install the package, edit your resultCache
configuration.
import { RedisCacheAdapter, type RedisCacheAdapterOptions} from '@javien/mikro-orm-redis-cache-adapter'
defineConfig({
// your configuration
resultCache: {
adapter: RedisCacheAdapter
options: {
// pass your redis client
client: redis
// (optional) Debug mode. Defaults to `false`.
debug: true,
// (optional) The prefix for the cache keys. Defaults to `mikro`.
prefix: 'mikro',
// (optional) The delimiter between the prefix and the cache key. Defaults to `:`.
prefixDelimiter: ':',
// (optional) Logger. Defaults to `console.log`.
logger: myLogger,
// (optional) gracefulShutdown: If you want to close the Redis connection by yourself,
// set it to `false`. Defaults to `true`.
gracefulShutdown: false,
// (optional) maximumCacheBytes: The maximum cache size of each key in bytes. Defaults to `-1`.
maximumCacheBytes: 1024 * 1024,
// (optional) base64Encode: If you want to use base64 encoding, set it to `true`. Defaults to `false`.
base64Encode: false
} as RedisCacheAdapterOptions
}
})
Behavior Explained
- Failing to store cache, it'll log the error regardless of the debug mode.
- Failing to fetch cache,
undefined
will be returned, which means your data will be loaded from the database. - Failing to delete the cache, it'll log the error regardless of the debug mode.
Supported Data Types
v8.serialize
is compatible with The structured clone algorithm, so only Supported types are able to get serialized.
Here're suported JavaScript types.
- Array, ArrayBuffer, and TypedArray
- Number, String, and Boolean
- Primitive types, except symbol.
- DataView
- Date
- Error types (see more at MDN page).
- Map and Set
- Object objects: but only plain objects (e.g. from object literals).
- RegExp: but note that lastIndex is not preserved.
If your property is not supported type, consider using Custom Type.
Why not JSON.stringify?
JSON.stringify
is usually used to serialize objects,
but there are several kinds of data that it can't serialize and deserialize - BigInt, recursive, Buffer, Map, Set, etc.
JSON.stringify(BigInt(1))
// Uncaught TypeError: Do not know how to serialize a BigInt
JSON.stringify(new Date()) // '"2024-05-26T05:39:00.493Z"'
// serializes to string, so parsed result is different from original
const buf = Buffer.from([0])
const str = JSON.stringify(buf) //'{"type":"Buffer","data":[0]}'
// Buffer.toJSON method is called, so parsed result is different from original
To solve this, we can pass the replacer
parameter.
So you might think using JSON.stringify
with replacer
is fine.
However, I don't think this is the best way to serialize data, while we can choose v8 api.
