# PHP SimpleCache
The PHP SimpleCache Class is an easy way to cache 3rd party API calls.
## Install
Install via [composer](https://getcomposer.org):
```javascript
{
"require": {
"gilbitron/php-simplecache": "~1.4"
}
}
```
Run `composer install` then use as normal:
```php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
$cache = new Gilbitron\Util\SimpleCache();
```
## Usage
A very basic usage example:
```php
$cache = new Gilbitron\Util\SimpleCache();
$latest_tweet = $cache->get_data('tweet', 'http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=from:gilbitron&rpp=1');
echo $latest_tweet;
```
A more advanced example:
```php
$cache = new Gilbitron\Util\SimpleCache();
$cache->cache_path = 'cache/';
$cache->cache_time = 3600;
if($data = $cache->get_cache('label')){
$data = json_decode($data);
} else {
$data = $cache->do_curl('http://some.api.com/file.json');
$cache->set_cache('label', $data);
$data = json_decode($data);
}
print_r($data);
```
