3. Configuration

The caching policy is defined per entity. When using cache for a particular entity, its policy is retrieved using entity type as a key. If it is needed to have multiple caching policies, named caching policies should be used. To define a new caching policy

1. Create CacheBuilder

new CacheBuilder();

or invoke AddFluentCaching

AddFluentCaching(cacheBuilder => {/* your configuration here */});

2. Call For with entity type as a type parameter to define a policy for a particular entity.

cachebuilder.For<User>(u => {/* your configuration here */});

3. Call one of UseAsKey methods

If one of the entity properties should be used as a key, call

cacheBuilder => cachebuilder.For<User>(
    u => u.UseAsKey(s => $"User:{s.Id}"));

If a static string should be used as a key, call

cacheBuilder => cachebuilder.For<User>(
    u => u.UseAsKey("CurrentUser"));

If the entity class name should be used as a key, call

cacheBuilder => cachebuilder.For<User>(
    u => u.UseClassNameAsKey());

If the entity class full name should be used as a key, call

cacheBuilder => cachebuilder.For<User>(
    u => u.UseClassFullNameAsKey());
