💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to Cache::Ref::CAR::Base — she's the base clase (yes, "clase", that's the typo and we're keeping her, she's iconic 💅) for CAR and CART. Think of her as the mom friend holding down the group chat so the other two can pop off. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ngl this page doesn't have her own synopsis, she's a supporting character:

# see CAR or CART

periodt. go look at Cache::Ref::CAR or Cache::Ref::CART for the actual drama. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this role — hi, yes, she's a role, not out here being a whole class by herself — provides all the common functionality for both Cache::Ref::CAR and Cache::Ref::CART. she's the shared lore. the two of them show up looking cute and she's the one who did all the work fr fr. 😭

💜 METHODS 💜

  • get @keys — fetch data from the cache. you hand her keys, she hands you the goods. lowkey the main character move. 👑
  • set $key, $value — insert data to the cache. you bring a key and a value, she slots them in. no cap. ✨
  • remove @keys — remove entries from the cache. heads up bestie: this one is not in the original CAR algorithm description, so she's an extra lil bonus feature, not part of the canon. 💀
  • expire $x — removes $x elements from the cache (hopefully the most useless ones 🙈). and the default value for $x is 1, so if you don't say a number she just does one. cute of her.

and then she left this lil note at the bottom of her methods, we don't ask:

# ex: set sw=4 et:
