Reliable.HttpClient.Caching

NuGet Version

Intelligent HTTP response caching extension for Reliable.HttpClient with preset-based configuration, custom headers support, and automatic memory management.

Installation

dotnet add package Reliable.HttpClient.Caching

Quick Start

// Zero configuration - just add resilience with caching
services.AddHttpClient<WeatherApiClient>()
    .AddResilienceWithMediumTermCache<WeatherResponse>(); // 10 minutes cache

// Configure default headers for all requests
services.AddHttpClient<ApiClient>()
    .AddMemoryCache(options => options
        .WithDefaultExpiry(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5))
        .AddHeader("Authorization", "Bearer token")
        .AddHeader("X-API-Version", "1.0"));

// Use anywhere with per-request header customization
public class WeatherService(CachedHttpClient<WeatherResponse> client)
{
    public async Task<WeatherResponse> GetWeatherAsync(string city) =>
        await client.GetFromJsonAsync($"/weather?city={city}");

    // Add custom headers per request
    public async Task<WeatherResponse> GetWeatherWithTokenAsync(string city, string token)
    {
        var headers = new Dictionary<string, string>
        {
            ["Authorization"] = $"Bearer {token}",
            ["X-Request-ID"] = Guid.NewGuid().ToString()
        };
        return await client.GetFromJsonAsync($"/weather?city={city}", headers);
    }
}

Why This Package?

  • Zero Configuration – Works out of the box with sensible defaults
  • ✨ Custom Headers Support – Default headers + per-request header customization with smart cache key generation
  • Preset-Based Setup – 6 ready-made configurations for common scenarios
  • Automatic Dependencies – No need to manually register IMemoryCache
  • Combined APIs – Resilience + Caching in one method call
  • Performance Optimized – Smart cache keys, configurable expiry, memory-efficient

Caching Approaches

This package provides two caching approaches:

🌐 Universal Caching

  • Best for: Multiple response types in a single client
  • Key class: HttpClientWithCache
  • Use case: Flexible, multi-type scenarios

🎯 Generic Caching

  • Best for: Type-safe caching for specific response types
  • Key class: CachedHttpClient<TResponse>
  • Use case: High-performance, type-safe scenarios
  • 📚 See Generic Documentation →

🎯 Need help choosing? See our Choosing Guide

Ready-Made Presets

Choose from preset configurations for common scenarios:

// Short-term (1 minute) - frequently changing data
services.AddHttpClient<ApiClient>()
    .AddShortTermCache<ApiResponse>();

// Medium-term (10 minutes) - moderately stable data
services.AddHttpClient<ApiClient>()
    .AddMediumTermCache<ApiResponse>();

// Long-term (1 hour) - stable reference data
services.AddHttpClient<ApiClient>()
    .AddLongTermCache<ApiResponse>();
