Class FileEngine

File Storage engine for cache. Filestorage is the slowest cache storage to read and write. However, it is good for servers that don't have other storage engine available, or have content which is not performance sensitive.

You can configure a FileEngine cache, using Cache::config()

Setting a specific value:

$this->configShallow('key', $value);

Setting a nested value:

$this->configShallow('some.nested.key', $value);

Updating multiple config settings at the same time:

Parameters
string $key

Key to check.

Returns
void
Throws
Cake\Cache\InvalidArgumentException
When the key is not valid.

ensureValidType() ¶ protected

ensureValidType(iterable $iterable, string $check = self::CHECK_VALUE): void

Ensure the validity of the argument type and cache keys.

Parameters

Reading a nested value:

$this->getConfig('some.nested.key');

Reading with default value:

$this->getConfig('some-key', 'default-value');
Parameters
string|null $key optional

The key to get or null for the whole config.

mixed $default optional

The return value when the key does not exist.

Returns
mixed

getConfigOrFail() ¶ public

NOTE: It is recommended that has() is only to be used for cache warming type purposes and not to be used within your live applications operations for get/set, as this method is subject to a race condition where your has() will return true and immediately after, another script can remove it making the state of your app out of date.

Parameters
string $key
