DEPRECATION WARNING

This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.

Cache service

Its name speaks for itself: the cache service is an implementation of the TYPO3 caching framework. It will be used to store configuration objects in cache the first time they are created, then fetch the created entry next times. This can improve performances dramatically.

You should really consider before using this service, as it can lead to unwanted behaviours. You should obviously use it only for objects which will be needed several times: do not use it for one-time-run objects, it would create a cache entry for nothing.

Usage

You can activate this service for a given configuration object by attaching it to the ServiceFactory in the static function getConfigurationObjectServices(). Use the constant ServiceInterface::SERVICE_CACHE as an identifier for this service (see example below).

Options

Name Description
CacheService::OPTION_CACHE_NAME The name of the “group” which will contain all the cache entries for this configuration object.
CacheService::OPTION_CACHE_BACKEND
Type of backend cache used for the cache manager. Default is TYPO3\CMS\...\FileBackend.

See TYPO3 official documentation for more information.
CacheService::OPTION_CACHE_GROUPS Groups of the cache, default value is all.
CacheService::OPTION_CACHE_OPTIONS Actual options of the cache manager. A good example is the option cacheDirectory for the FileBackend cache. You can find the options of every backend cache in the TYPO3 official documentation (see above).
