Plack:...:Cache(3pm)

💖 Plack::Middleware::Cache — bestie edition 💖

ok so this is Plack::Middleware::Cache from the Perl world (that's the 3pm manual, iykyk) and its whole vibe is: use cached responses of certain URIs. no cap. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

builder {
    enable "Cache",
        match_url => [
            '^/foo/',
            '\\?.*xxx=.*',
        ],
        cache_dir => '/tmp/plack-cache';
    $app;
};

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so listen 💅 this middleware is literally the friend who remembers everything so you don't have to. it lets you cache those expensive and non-changing responses — you know, the ones that take forever to cook but never actually change — for URIs that match a list of regular expression patterns. the way that it just... holds onto them for you? iconic. 👑

---

🫶 PARAMETERS 🫶

here's the tea, the following parameters can be used:

• match_url (required) — a regexp string or array ref of regexp strings to try to match the current URL against. yes bestie, you can hand it one or hand it a whole list. ⭐
• cache_dir (optional) — a directory to write the cached responses into. that's it, that's the whole job. 🍓
• debug (optional) — set to 1 to warn cache information. not me being nosy about what's happening in the cache... 🙈
