Migrating Encache to TS

Harsh S — Thu, 15 Aug 2024 16:33:37 +0000

Hello everyone,
I am here to tell that encache is being shipped to TS .This decision came as a part of expanding the library in typescript here after . The base code has been converted , however due to lack of my experience the type safety is poor and it might contain bugs.

I would like to invite y'all and contribute to this open source project as a part of giving back to the community and delivering a quality product.
The contributing guidelines haven't been setup since its a small scale project as of now , however one can

create an Issue suggesting a bug /feature request
fork it and clone it
push the new code on a new branch and ask for merge using pull request

Lets grow together !

ENCACHE

Harsh S — Tue, 30 Jul 2024 08:14:13 +0000

Presenting you Encache !! a lightweight, easy to use Async caching library for your Nodejs server. Encache was developed as a next iteration to all the existing in-memory, volatile caching libraries available on NPM, taking it a whole new level, while maintaining the simplicity as the entire cache can be setup in just 4 lines of code.

Salient Features

Currently Encache supports multiple eviction policies. These policies can be dynamically changed throughout the cache's life . They are

FIFO
LRU
LFU
Lazy- TTL
Random
No-Eviction

Encache provides optional data compression to your cache to improve the memory utilization and efficiency. Currently it provides LZ4, which on an average can improve the efficiency on non-random, partially random and pseudo random texts by 50% !. This enables Encache to be a large data store while providing the simplicity of the cache.
Encache currently provides insightful user-centric metrics like hitRatio ,missRatio, memoryConsumption , fillRate and evictionRate .
These benchmark numbers would also be directly available with a logging service , which is under development.

Conclusion

I'm not saying that this library is any quicker or more complete than other products out there, like Redis. But I'm sure it offers a lot of useful features for projects that don't utilize cache much or for people who just want to quickly and simply set up a cache without having to deal with the hassle of setting up and maintaining third-party cache services.

I acknowledge that the library will have its fair share of bugs, imperfections, and problems (I'm a newbie), but I'd like to work with you guys to improve it and make it more user-friendly. Please feel free to suggest and request features. Please DM me at any time!
