LightMemoryCache
LightMemoryCache is a lightweight, thread-safe, in-memory caching library for .NET applications. It provides a simple and efficient way to cache data objects with customizable expiration times.
Features
- Simple API: Easy-to-use methods for adding, retrieving, and invalidating cached items.
- Thread-Safe: Utilizes ConcurrentDictionary along with the lock statement for thread safety.
- Expiration: Supports customizable expiration times for cached items.
- Automatic Cleanup: Periodically cleans up expired items using a background timer.
- Configurable: Allows configuration of default expiration time via options.
Installation
You can install LightMemoryCache via NuGet Package Manager:
Install-Package LightMemoryCache
or dotnet CLI
dotnet add package LightMemoryCache
Usage
Register the component:
services.AddLightMemoryCache();
or
var configurationRoot = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", false)
.Build();
var defaultExpirationInMinutes = configurationRoot.GetValue<int>("CacheOptions:DefaultExpirationInMinutes");
services.AddLightMemoryCache(options => { options.DefaultExpirationInMinutes = defaultExpirationInMinutes; });
"CacheOptions": {
"DefaultExpirationInMinutes": "15"
}
Dependency injection
public class CountryService : ICountryService
{
private readonly ILightMemoryCache _cache;
public CountryService(ILightMemoryCache cache)
{
_cache = cache;
}
// ...
}
