# FileCache - Efficient Go File Caching

FileCache is a Go module that provides a simple file caching mechanism. It allows you to efficiently manage and retrieve files, with the option to cache them in memory or use a streaming approach for large files.

## Features

- In-memory caching of small files.
- Streaming for large files to avoid excessive memory usage.
- Efficient file updates and deletions.

## Installation

```bash
go get -u github.com/NIR3X/filecache
```

## Usage

```go
package main

import (
"fmt"
"github.com/NIR3X/filecache"
)

func main() {
// Create a new FileCache instance with a specified maximum cache size
f := filecache.NewFileCache(2 * 1024 * 1024)

// Update the cache with a file
err := f.Update("/path/to/your/file.txt")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
return
}

// Get a reader for the file from the cache
reader, writer, err := f.Get("/path/to/your/file.txt")
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err)
return
}

// Use the reader to read the file content

// Remember to close the writer if it's not nil

// ...

// Delete a file from the cache
f.Delete("/path/to/your/file.txt")
}
```
