cache-conf

Simple cache config handling for your app or module

If you don't need caching, you should use conf instead. This module extends that module and abstracts away the caching mechanism.

Install

$ npm install --save cache-conf

Usage

const delay = require('delay');
const CacheConf = require('cache-conf');
const config = new CacheConf();

config.set('unicorn', '🦄', {maxAge: 5000});
console.log(config.get('unicorn'));
//=> '🦄'

// Wait 5 seconds
await delay(5000);

console.log(config.get('unicorn'));
//=> undefined
