3. Howto Use PHP APC User Cache Examples

3.1 PHP APC User Cache Example with Numeric Values

Here is an example howto use apc_add, apc_cas, apc_fetch, apc_dec and apc_inc:

<?php
    // Add num variable to data store
    apc_add('num', 1);
 
    // Print initial value
    echo "Initial value: ", apc_fetch('num'), "<br />";
 
    // Update old value with a new value
    apc_cas('num', 1, 10);
 
    // Print just updated value
    echo "Updated value: ", apc_fetch('num'), "<br />";
 
    // Decrease a stored number
    echo "Decrease 1: ", apc_dec('num'), "<br />";
    echo "Decrease 3: ", apc_dec('num', 3), "<br />";
 
    // Increase a stored number
    echo "Increase 2: ", apc_inc('num', 2), "<br />";
    echo "Increase 1: ", apc_inc('num'), "<br />";
?>

Output:

Initial value: 1
Updated value: 10
Decrease 1: 9
Decrease 3: 6
Increase 2: 8
Increase 1: 9

 

3.2 PHP APC User Cache Example with String

This example shows howto use apc_fetch, apc_exists, apc_store, apc_clear_cache:

<?php
    // Check if str found from cache
    if (apc_exists('str')) {
        // Print str from cache
        echo "str from cache: ", apc_fetch('str'), "<br />";
        // Clear cache
        apc_clear_cache('user');
        // Try to fetch str again
        echo "str from cache, after user cache is cleared: ", "<br />";
        var_dump(apc_fetch('str'));
    }
    else {
        // Save str to cache and set ttl 120 seconds
        echo 'str not found from cache...saving', "<br />";
        $str = "This is just test";
        apc_store('str', $str, 120);
    }
?>

First run output:

str not found from cache...saving

Second run output:

str from cache: This is just test

 

3.3 PHP APC User Cache Example with Array

<?php
    // Check if arr found from cache
    if ($arr = apc_fetch('arr')) {
        echo "arr from cache: ", "<br />";
        print_r($arr);
    }
    else {
        echo 'arr not found from cache...saving', "<br />";
        $arr = array('Test 1', 'Test 2', 'Test 3');
        apc_add('arr', $arr, 120);
    }
?>

First run output:

arr not found from cache...saving

Second run output:

arr from cache:
Array ( [0] => Test 1 [1] => Test 2 [2] => Test 3 )

 

3.3 PHP APC User Cache Example with Object

<?php
    // Simple Person class
    class Person {
        private $name;
        private $age;
 
        public function setName($name) {
            $this->name = $name;
        }
 
        public function setAge($age) {
            $this->age = $age;
        }
 
        public function getName() {
            return $this->name;
        }
 
        public function getAge() {
            return $this->age;
        }
    }
 
    // Check if Person object found from cache
    if ($obj = apc_fetch('person')) {
        echo "Person data from cache: ", "<br />";
        echo "Name: ", $obj->getName(), "<br />";
        echo "Age: ", $obj->getAge(), "<br />";
    }
    else {
        echo 'Person data not found from cache...saving', "<br />";
        $obj = new Person;
        $obj->setName('Test Person');
        $obj->setAge(35);
        apc_add('person', $obj, 3600);
    }
?>

First run output:

Person data not found from cache...saving

Second run output:

Person data from cache: 
Name: Test Person
Age: 35
