Usage

First, configure your cache providers under the doctrine_cache configuration option. Example:

  • YAML
    1# app/config/config.yml
doctrine_cache:
    providers:
        my_apc_metadata_cache:
            type: apc
            namespace: metadata_cache_ns
        my_apc_query_cache:
            namespace: query_cache_ns
            apc: ~

    1<!-- app/config/config.xml -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<container xmlns="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/services"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

    <doctrine-cache:doctrine-cache>
         <doctrine-cache:provider name="my_apc_metadata_cache">
            <doctrine-cache:type>apc</doctrine-cache:type>
            <doctrine-cache:namespace>metadata_cache_ns</doctrine-cache:namespace>
         </doctrine-cache:provider>
        <doctrine-cache:provider name="my_apc_query_cache" namespace="query_cache_ns">
            <doctrine-cache:apc/>
        <doctrine-cache:provider>
    </doctrine-cache:doctrine-cache>
</container>

Then, use the newly created doctrine_cache.providers.{provider_name} container services anywhere in your application:

$metadataCache = $this->container->get('doctrine_cache.providers.my_apc_metadata_cache');
$queryCache = $this->container->get('doctrine_cache.providers.my_apc_query_cache');

Service Aliases

In order to make your code more concise, you can define aliases for these services thanks to the aliases configuration option. Example:

  • YAML
    1# app/config/config.yml
doctrine_cache:
    aliases:
        apc_cache: my_apc_cache

    providers:
        my_apc_cache:
            type: apc
            namespace: my_apc_cache_ns
            aliases:
                - apc_cache

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<dic:container xmlns="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/symfony-dic/cache"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:srv="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/services"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/services http://symfony.com/schema/dic/services/services-1.0.xsd
        http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/symfony-dic/cache http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/symfony-dic/cache/doctrine_cache-1.0.xsd">

<srv:container>
    <doctrine-cache>
        <alias key="apc_cache">my_apc_cache</alias>

        <provider name="my_apc_cache">
            <type>apc</type>
            <namespace>my_apc_cache_ns</namespace>
            <alias>apc_cache</alias>
        </provider>
    </doctrine-cache>
</srv:container>

    15
    

    16
    

    17
    

    18

Now you can use the short apc_cache alias to get the provider called my_apc_cache, instead of using doctrine_cache.providers.my_apc_cache:

$apcCache = $this->container->get('apc_cache');
