Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached with Namspace support for clearing specific keys

Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached_Namespace

Extends Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached to allow for clearing of specific variables based on their specified "namespace".

// Vanilla Memcached
$plain = new Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached();

// Namespaced Memcached
$posts = new Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached_Namespace(array(
    'namespace' => 'posts'
));

// COMMAND                                 Memcached Data
//
$plain->save('Bob', 'firstName');       // ['firstName']        => 'Bob'

$posts->save('Eric', 'firstName');      // ['firstName']        => 'Bob'
                                        // ['posts::firstName'] => 'Eric'
                                        // ['posts::__keys']    => array('posts::firstName')

$posts->save('Clemmons', 'lastName');   // ['firstName']        => 'Bob'
                                        // ['posts::firstName'] => 'Eric'
                                        // ['posts::lastName']  => 'Clemmons'
                                        // ['posts::__keys']    => array('posts::firstName', 'posts::lastName')

$posts->clean();                        // ['firstName']        => 'Bob'
$plain->clean();                        // (everything's gone!)

Usage

This simply modifies the clean functionality in Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached to only clean the current namespace, unless you pass in Zend_Cache::CLEANING_MODE_ALL.

application.ini:

resources.cachemanager.posts.frontend.name = "Class"
resources.cachemanager.posts.frontend.options.cached_entity = "Posts"

; Because of "sanitization" of backends, we have to use a custom one
resources.cachemanager.posts.backend.customBackendNaming = true
resources.cachemanager.posts.backend.name = "Zend_Cache_Backend_Memcached_Namespace"

; This backend will be stored with keys like: "posts::$KEY"
resources.cachemanager.posts.backend.options.namespace = 'posts'

Clone this repo into your vendors directory and add it to your include path:

set_include_path(implode(PATH_SEPARATOR, array(
    ...
    realpath(APPLICATION_PATH . '/../vendors/zend-memcached-namespaced'),
    ...
);

Example

class Zend_Controller_PostsController extends Zend_Controller_Action
{
    ...
    
    public function addPost()
    {
        $post = new Post();
        ...
        Posts::add($post);
        
        // Clean the posts cache
        $this->cache->clean();
        
        // Clean all data
        $this->cache->clean(Zend_Cache::CLEANING_MODE_ALL);
    }
    
}
