.new(key = nil, ttl: default_ttl, key_prefix: default_key_prefix, &block) ⇒ Object

new

Finds the correct value (based on the provided key) in the cache store, or calls the original code, and stores the result in cache.

The TTL of the cached content is provided with the optional ‘ttl` named argument. If left blank, the `DEFAULT_TTL` ttl value will be used.

The caching key will be determined by creating a SHA digest of the original code’s file location and line number within that file. This makes it easier to provide short caching keys like uid’s, or ids, and still receive a unique caching key under which the data is stored.

The cache key can optionally be left blank. This should **only be done** if the provided data by the method will never changes based on some form of input.

For example: caching an ‘Item` should always be done by providing a unique item identifier as the caching key, otherwise the cache will return the same item every time, even if a different one is stored the second time.

good:

Cache.new { 'hello world' } # stored object is always the same
Cache.new(item.id) { item } # stored item is namespaced using its id

bad:

Cache.new { item } # item is only stored once, and then always
                   # retrieved, even if it is a different item
