ActiveSupport::Cache::MemoryStore

A cache store implementation which stores everything into memory in the same process. If you're running multiple Ruby on Rails server processes (which is the case if you're using Phusion Passenger or puma clustered mode), then this means that Rails server process instances won't be able to share cache data with each other and this may not be the most appropriate cache in that scenario.

This cache has a bounded size specified by the :size options to the initializer (default is 32Mb). When the cache exceeds the allotted size, a cleanup will occur which tries to prune the cache down to three quarters of the maximum size by removing the least recently used entries.

MemoryStore is thread-safe.

cleanup(options = nil)

Preemptively iterates through all stored keys and removes the ones which have expired.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 41
def cleanup(options = nil)
  options = merged_options(options)
  instrument(:cleanup, size: @data.size) do
    keys = synchronize { @data.keys }
    keys.each do |key|
      entry = @data[key]
      delete_entry(key, options) if entry && entry.expired?
    end
  end
end
clear(options = nil)

Delete all data stored in a given cache store.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 32
def clear(options = nil)
  synchronize do
    @data.clear
    @key_access.clear
    @cache_size = 0
  end
end
decrement(name, amount = 1, options = nil)

Decrement an integer value in the cache.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 83
def decrement(name, amount = 1, options = nil)
  modify_value(name, -amount, options)
end
delete_matched(matcher, options = nil)

Deletes cache entries if the cache key matches a given pattern.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 88
def delete_matched(matcher, options = nil)
  options = merged_options(options)
  instrument(:delete_matched, matcher.inspect) do
    matcher = key_matcher(matcher, options)
    keys = synchronize { @data.keys }
    keys.each do |key|
      delete_entry(key, options) if key.match(matcher)
    end
  end
end
increment(name, amount = 1, options = nil)

Increment an integer value in the cache.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 78
def increment(name, amount = 1, options = nil)
  modify_value(name, amount, options)
end
prune(target_size, max_time = nil)

To ensure entries fit within the specified memory prune the cache by removing the least recently accessed entries.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 54
def prune(target_size, max_time = nil)
  return if pruning?
  @pruning = true
  begin
    start_time = Time.now
    cleanup
    instrument(:prune, target_size, from: @cache_size) do
      keys = synchronize { @key_access.keys.sort { |a, b| @key_access[a].to_f <=> @key_access[b].to_f } }
      keys.each do |key|
        delete_entry(key, options)
        return if @cache_size <= target_size || (max_time && Time.now - start_time > max_time)
      end
    end
  ensure
    @pruning = false
  end
end
pruning?()

Returns true if the cache is currently being pruned.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/memory_store.rb, line 73
def pruning?
  @pruning
end
