aiohttp-aiocache

Caching middleware for aiohttp server with aiocache under the hood. Inspired by aiohttp-cache.

Optional aiocache dependencies for redis, memcached and msgpack support will not be installed. Install them manually if required.

Usage

import asyncio

import aiohttp.web as web
from aiocache import Cache
from aiocache.serializers import PickleSerializer

from aiohttp_aiocache import cached, register_cache


@cached  # mark handler with decorator
async def handler(_: web.Request) -> web.Response:
    await asyncio.sleep(1)
    return web.Response(text="Hello world")

app = web.Application()
app.router.add_route("GET", "/", handler)

# create aiocache instance
cache = Cache(
    Cache.MEMORY,
    serializer=PickleSerializer(),
    namespace="main",
    ttl=60,
)

# register cache backend in appplication
register_cache(app, cache)

web.run_app(app)
