DEFAULT_COMPRESS_LIMIT = 1.kilobyte
DeserializationError = Class.new(StandardError)
 

Raised by coders when the cache entry can’t be deserialized. This error is treated as a cache miss.
OPTION_ALIASES = { expires_in: [:expire_in, :expired_in] }.freeze
 

Mapping of canonical option names to aliases that a store will recognize.
UNIVERSAL_OPTIONS = [ :coder, :compress, :compress_threshold, :compressor, :expire_in, :expired_in, :expires_in, :namespace, :race_condition_ttl, :serializer, :skip_nil, ]
 

These options mean something to all cache implementations. Individual cache implementations may support additional options.

expand_cache_key(key, namespace = nil)

Expands out the key argument into a key that can be used for the cache store. Optionally accepts a namespace, and all keys will be scoped within that namespace.

If the key argument provided is an array, or responds to to_a, then each of elements in the array will be turned into parameters/keys and concatenated into a single key. For example:

ActiveSupport::Cache.expand_cache_key([:foo, :bar])               # => "foo/bar"
ActiveSupport::Cache.expand_cache_key([:foo, :bar], "namespace")  # => "namespace/foo/bar"

The key argument can also respond to cache_key or to_param.

lookup_store(store = nil, *parameters)

Creates a new Store object according to the given options.

If no arguments are passed to this method, then a new ActiveSupport::Cache::MemoryStore object will be returned.

If you pass a Symbol as the first argument, then a corresponding cache store class under the ActiveSupport::Cache namespace will be created. For example:

ActiveSupport::Cache.lookup_store(:memory_store)
# => returns a new ActiveSupport::Cache::MemoryStore object

ActiveSupport::Cache.lookup_store(:mem_cache_store)
# => returns a new ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore object

Any additional arguments will be passed to the corresponding cache store class’s constructor:

ActiveSupport::Cache.lookup_store(:file_store, '/tmp/cache')
# => same as: ActiveSupport::Cache::FileStore.new('/tmp/cache')

If the first argument is not a Symbol, then it will simply be returned:

ActiveSupport::Cache.lookup_store(MyOwnCacheStore.new)
# => returns MyOwnCacheStore.new
