As Opencart provides the cache library (cache.php), so here we will learn how to perform caching in Opencart. Opencart uses file cache by default and it provides files for performing 3 types of caching viz. APC(Alternative PHP Cache), file(file cache) and mem(memory cache). The cache data saved in the file is in the JSON format.<\/p>\n
You can use any type of caching among the above three by just changing the value of $_[‘cache_type’] to ‘file’, ‘apc’ or ‘mem’ in system->config->default.php.<\/p>\n
For creating cache, we have to use the following code:<\/p>\n
$this->cache->set('cacheName', $cacheData);<\/pre>\nHere, ‘cacheName’ is the name\u00a0by which cache can be called and $cacheData is a variable in which the data is stored. In order to get the stored data, the following command will be used.<\/p>\n
$this->cache->get('cacheName');<\/pre>\nSo, it’s very easy to use the\u00a0cache. By default, Opencart mainly uses cache for currency and language. You can try it with different types too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
