Memcached Implementation for IDistributed Cache Memcached library for .NET Core 6, 7, 8

Memcache Integration for IDistributed Cache

Overview

This repository demonstrates how to integrate Memcache as an implementation of the IDistributedCache interface in .NET applications. Memcache is a distributed caching system that is commonly used to improve the performance and scalability of web applications.

Prerequisites

• .NET Core SDK (version 5.0 or higher)
• Memcache server (Any)

Installation

1. Install the Skyb.Extensions.Caching.Memcached package from NuGet:

   dotnet add package Skyb.Extensions.Caching.Memcached
   

Usage

1. Add Memcache caching to the services collection in your application's Startup.cs file:

   using Skyb.Extensions.Caching.Memcached;
   
   public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
   {
       // Add Memcache distributed cache
       var client = services.AddMemCache(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30), "[ServerUrl]:[ServerPort]"); 
   
       // Other service configurations...
       //Store DateProtection Keys
       services.AddDataProtection().PersistKeysToMemCached(client, "DataProtectionKeys");
   }
   

2. Now you can inject IDistributedCache into your classes and use it for caching:

   using Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Distributed;
   
   public class MyService
   {
       private readonly IDistributedCache _cache;
   
       public MyService(IDistributedCache cache)
       {
           _cache = cache;
       }
   
       public async Task<string> GetValueAsync(string key)
       {
           var cachedValue = await _cache.GetStringAsync(key);
   
           if (cachedValue == null)
           {
               // Value not found in cache, retrieve it from the data source
               cachedValue = "Value from data source";
   
               // Cache the value for future requests
               await _cache.SetStringAsync(key, cachedValue, new DistributedCacheEntryOptions
               {
                   AbsoluteExpirationRelativeToNow = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(10) // Cache for 10 minutes
               });
           }
   
           return cachedValue;
       }
   }
