One of the two hardest problems in computer science

Cache

Description

The Cache Control Plane is responsible for speeding up and making a LearnCard more efficient through the use of Caching.

To better encourage and allow separation of the caching between different planes, Cache plugins are required to implement separate caching methods for each plane. In general, when consuming a LearnCard object, you should rarely, if ever, need to interact with the cache directlyit should just work underneath each of the other Planes 🚀!

The Cache Plane implements ten methods: getIndex, setIndex, getIndexPage, setIndexPage, (optionally) getIndexCount, (optionally) setIndexCount, flushIndex, getVc, setVc, and flushVc

cache.getIndex

The getIndex method takes in a query returns a list of CredentialRecords, similar to the Index Plane's get method.

cache.setIndex

The setIndex method takes in a query and a list of CredentialRecords and caches the records against the query, returning true if successful and false if not.

cache.getIndexPage

The getIndexPage method takes in a query with pagination options and returns a paginated result of CredentialRecords, similar to the Index Plane's getPage method.

cache.setIndexPage

The setIndexPage method takes in a query with pagination options and a paginated result of CredentialRecords and caches the result against the query/options, returning true if successful and false if not.

cache.getIndexCount

The getIndexCount method takes in a query and returns a number, intending to cache the Index Plane's getCount method.

cache.setIndexCount

The setIndexCount method takes in a query and number and caches the number against the query, returning true if successful and false if not.

cache.flushIndex

The flushIndex method empties out everything in the cache that can be returned by getIndex, getIndexPage, or getIndexCount

cache.getVc

The getVc method takes in a URI and returns a Verifiable Credential, similar to the Read Plane's get method.

cache.setVc

The setVc method takes in a URI and a Verifiable Credential and caches the Verifiable Credential against the URI, returning true if successful and false if not.

cache.flushVc

The flushVc method empties out everything in the cache that can be returned by getVc.
