Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Node Cache Manager store for Filesystem

Build npm package node

Package to cache key-value pairs in JSON files.

Installation

npm install cache-manager-fs-hash

Features

  • Saves anything that is JSON.stringify-able to disk
  • Buffers are saved as well (if they reach a certain size they will be stored to separate files)
  • Works well with the cluster module

Usage example

Here is an example that demonstrates how to implement the Filesystem cache store.

const {DiskStore} = require('cache-manager-fs-hash');

const diskStore = new DiskStore({
    path: 'diskcache', // path for cached files (default: cache)
    ttl: 60 * 60 * 1000, // time to life in milliseconds 
                         // (default: never expires)
    zip: true, // zip files to save disk space (default: false)
});

(async () => {
    await diskStore.set('key', 'value');
    console.log(await diskStore.get('key')); // "value"

    await diskStore.del('key');
    console.log(await diskStore.get('key')); // undefined

    await diskStore.set('key', 'value', 1000); // with custom TTL
    console.log(await diskStore.ttl('key')); // 999 milliseconds

    // delete stored files
    await diskStore.reset();
})();

Here is an example that demonstrates how to use the store with the node-cache-manager module.

const cacheManager = require('cache-manager');
const {DiskStore} = require('cache-manager-fs-hash');

const diskCache = cacheManager.createCache(new DiskStore({
    path: 'diskcache', // path for cached files
    // ... other options
}));


(async () => {

    await diskCache.set('key', 'value');
    console.log(await diskCache.get('key')); // "value"

    console.log(await getUserCached(5)); // {id: 5, name: '...'}
    console.log(await getUserCached(5)); // {id: 5, name: '...'}

    function getUserCached(userId) {
        return diskCache.wrap(userId, function () {
            return getUser(userId);
        });
    }

    async function getUser(userId) {
        await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 100)); // sleep 0.1 seconds
        return {id: userId, name: '...' + Math.random()};
    }

})();

How it works

The filename is determined by the md5 hash of the key. (The key is also saved in the file to detect hash collisions. In this case it will just return a cache miss). Writing is performed with .lock files so that multiple instances of the library (e.g. using the cluster module) do not interfere with one another.
