A library of dogpile.cache extensions

Extensions for dogpile.cache

This library provides extensions for dogpile.cache. For the time being only one extension is provided, a memory backend that can be limited in size (number of items to cache).

Installation

To install dcextensions, use pip

pip install dcextensions

Usage

To use the memory backend

from dogpile.cache import make_region

region = make_region().configure(
    'dogpile.cache.memory.limited',
    expiration_time = 3600,
    arguments = {
        'cache_size': 100,
        'cache_dict': my_dict
    }
)

Both arguments are optional. When use my_dict must be an instance of OrderedDict.
