A caching library that provides LRU & TTL caching, plus memoization decorators.
Describe features.
What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?
Compared to functools
- it provides async support out of the box
- it provides ttl caching out of the box
Compared to many other caching libraries in the same niche
- simpler approach (it does not consider object sizes, only its count)
- simpler & more performant approach for ttl caching (using
monotonicinstead ofdatetime) - more correct approach (when it comes to
__hash__and__eq__functions) - ability to discard emptyish/nullish values from being cached at the decorator level
- proper type hints
