# Cache Middleware

A high-performance HTTP response caching solution for FastAPI and Starlette applications.

Cache Middleware provides transparent response caching with pluggable backends, following the Starlette middleware pattern for seamless integration.

## ✨ Features

- **🔄 Multiple Backends**: Redis, Memcached, in-memory, and custom backend support
- **🎯 Decorator-based**: Simple `@cache(timeout=300)` decorator for endpoint caching
- **📋 Cache-Control Support**: Respects HTTP Cache-Control headers
- **⚙️ Flexible Configuration**: Environment-based or explicit configuration
- **🚀 Production Ready**: Comprehensive error handling and logging
- **🔒 Type Safe**: Full type hints and mypy support
- **📦 Modular Installation**: Install only the backends you need

## 📖 Documentation

Complete documentation is available at: **https://impalah.github.io/cache-middleware/**

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

**Basic installation (memory backend only):**

```bash
pip install cache-middleware
```

**With Redis backend:**

```bash
pip install cache-middleware[redis]
```

**With Memcached backend:**

```bash
pip install cache-middleware[memcached]
```

**With all backends:**

```bash
pip install cache-middleware[all]
```

### Basic Usage

```python
from fastapi import FastAPI
from cache_middleware import CacheMiddleware, MemoryBackend, cache

app = FastAPI()

# Configure memory backend
memory_backend = MemoryBackend(max_size=1000)
app.add_middleware(CacheMiddleware, backend=memory_backend)

@app.get("/items")
@cache(timeout=300)  # Cache for 5 minutes
async def get_items():
    return {"items": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]}
```

### Redis/ValKey Backend Example

```python
from cache_middleware import RedisBackend

# Configure Redis backend
redis_backend = RedisBackend(url="redis://localhost:6379")
app.add_middleware(CacheMiddleware, backend=redis_backend)

# Or configure ValKey backend (same API)
valkey_backend = RedisBackend(url="redis://localhost:6380")
app.add_middleware(CacheMiddleware, backend=valkey_backend)
```

## 🔧 Backend Options

### Memory Backend

- ✅ No external dependencies
- ✅ Perfect for development and testing
- ✅ LRU eviction policy
- ✅ Configurable size limits

### Redis/ValKey Backend

- ✅ Production-ready distributed caching
- ✅ Persistence and high availability
- ✅ Clustering support
- ✅ High performance with hiredis
- ✅ **Redis & ValKey Compatible**: Works with both Redis and ValKey servers

### Memcached Backend

- ✅ Lightweight distributed caching
- ✅ Simple and fast
- ✅ Wide ecosystem support

### Custom Backends

- ✅ Implement your own backend
- ✅ Simple abstract interface
- ✅ Easy integration

## 📋 Requirements

- **Python**: 3.12 or higher
- **FastAPI**: 0.116.1 or higher
- **Redis/ValKey**: Optional, required only for Redis/ValKey backend
- **Memcached**: Optional, required only for Memcached backend

## 🛠️ Development

### Version Management

This project uses automatic version synchronization across all files. When you bump the version:

```bash
# Development commands
make bump-version           # Bumps patch version (0.1.5 → 0.1.6)
make bump-version PART=minor # Bumps minor version (0.1.5 → 0.2.0)
make bump-version PART=major # Bumps major version (0.1.5 → 1.0.0)

# Sync only (without bumping)
make sync-version           # Synchronizes current version across all files
```

The version is automatically updated in:

- `pyproject.toml` (source of truth)
- `src/cache_middleware/__init__.py` (`__version__`)
- `docs_source/conf.py` (Sphinx documentation)

### Build and Test

```bash
make build     # Build package (includes version bump)
make test      # Run tests
make lint      # Code linting
make format    # Code formatting
make docs      # Build documentation
```
