purge(key::Any) :: Nothing

Removes the cache data stored under the key key.

purgeall(; dir::String = "") :: Nothing

Removes all cached data.

withcache(f::Function, key::Any, expiration::Int = GenieCache.cache_duration(); dir = "", condition::Bool = true)

Executes the function f and stores the result into the cache for the duration (in seconds) of expiration. Next time the function is invoked, if the cache has not expired, the cached result is returned skipping the function execution. The optional dir param is used to designate the folder where the cache will be stored (within the configured cache folder). If condition is false caching will be skipped.

cache_path(key::Any; dir::String = "") :: String

Computes the path to a cache key based on current cache settings.

fromcache(key::Any, expiration::Int; dir::String = "") :: Union{Nothing,Any}

Retrieves from cache the object stored under the key key if the expiration delta (in seconds) is in the future.

tocache(key::Any, content::Any; dir::String = "") :: Nothing

Persists content onto the file system under the key key.
