MyCache

A thread-safe LRU cache implemented in Golang.

Usage

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/RGBli/MyCache"
)

func main() {
    // initialize a cache instance
    cache := MyCache.New(1 * 1024 * 1024)

    // use database "test"
    db := cache.Use("test")
    
    // put value in cache
    key := "lbw"
    value := NewString("23")
    db.Set(key, value)
    
    // get value from cache
    v, ok := db.GetString(key)
    fmt.Println(v, ok)
}

Features

	map	MyCache
thread-safe	no	yes
maximum-capacity	no	yes
scalable	no	yes
TTL	no	yes
value types	implement by yourself	5 common implemented types

One thing to notice. RWLock is applied to mycache, so mycache works not as fast as map in Golang, but the gap is not that clear. You can run benchmark_test.go to get more information about it.
