# Zim::Store::Cached(3pm)

A base class for cached storage

## NAME

Zim::Store::Cached - A base class for cached storage

## DESCRIPTION

This module implements a base clase for stores which caches namespace listings, page linking structure and page meta data.

TODO: when scaling issues arise with the current implementation, the cache should be ported to DBI, using a database to store the cache. SQLite seems a good candidate as default DBD for this. The current implementation would then move to a subclass that serves as fallback when DBI is not available.

## METHODS

- "new(PARENT, NAMESPACE, DIR)"

  Simple constructor. DIR is the root directory of the store. NAMESPACE is the namespace that maps to that directory.

- "list\_pages(NAMESPACE)"

  - "list\_backlinks(PAGE)"

  Returns a list with names of pages that link to this page.

- "resolve\_case(\\@LINK, \\@PAGE)"

  ## BUGS

Please mail the author if you find any bugs.
