Getting all keys in a namespace with Zend Data Cache


With the Zend Data Cache - PHP API, is there a method for retrieving all keys in a namespace?

Essentially, I need to replicate what you can do with apc_cache_info, such as

$info = apc_cache_info("user");
$keys = array();

foreach ($info["cache_list"] as $entry) {
    $keys[] = $entry["info"];
}

It is not apparent from the documentation if this is possible.

Thanks.


Solution

  • The Zend File Backend supports getTags() and getIds()

    class Zend_Cache_Backend_File
    {
        ....
        /**
         * Return an array of stored tags
         *
         * @return array array of stored tags (string)
         */
        public function getTags()
        {
            return $this->_get($this->_options['cache_dir'], 'tags', array());
        }
        /**
         * Return an array of stored tags
         *
         * @return array array of stored tags (string)
         */
        public function getTags()
        {
            return $this->_get($this->_options['cache_dir'], 'tags', array());
        }
    

    In my bootstrap file i init the cache

    protected function _initCache()
    {
        $frontendOptions = array(
            'lifetime' => 3600*24*5, // cache lifetime of 5 days
            'automatic_serialization' => true,
            'logging' => false,
            'caching' => true
        );
    
        $backendOptions = array(
            'cache_dir' => './../data/cache/', // Directory where to put the cache files
            'hashed_directory_level' => 2
        );
    
        // getting a Zend_Cache_Core object
        $cache = Zend_Cache::factory(
            'Core',
            'File',
            $frontendOptions,
            $backendOptions);
        Zend_Registry::set('cache', $cache); 
    

    Then in my controller i can call

    public function indexAction()
    {
        $cache = Zend_Registry::get('cache');
        Zend_Debug::dump($cache->getTags());
        Zend_Debug::dump($cache->getIds());
    

    Suggest you check the Zend code for the specific cache backend your using.
