mezmorize

A python function memoization library heavily inspired by Flask-Cache.

This is a fork of the Flask-Cache extension.

Setup

mezmorize is available on PyPI and can be installed with:

pip install mezmorize

Usage

from random import randrange

from mezmorize import Cache

cache = Cache(CACHE_TYPE='simple')


@cache.memoize(60)
def add(a, b):
    return a + b + randrange(0, 1000)

# Initial
add(2, 5)

# Memoized
add(2, 5)
add(2, 5)

# Delete cache
cache.delete_memoized(add)

# Initial
add(2, 5)

For more configuration options, check out the the examples or Flask-Caching documentation.

Compatibility with Flask-Cache and Flask-Caching

There are no known incompatibilities or breaking changes between either the latest Flask-Cache v0.13 or Flask-Caching v1.8.0 and the current version of mezmorize.

Python versions

Starting with version 0.26.0, mezmorize dropped Python 2 support. The library is tested against Python 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, and PyPy 3.6.

Environment Variables
