recache

Package recache is a lightweight caching library for Go's standard regular expression package that offers improved performance by avoiding recompilation of global regular expression variables and by caching regular expressions.

Features

• Stable cache interface.
• Simple and easy-to-use API.
• Thread-safe caching of compiled regular expressions.
• Lazy compilation of regular expressions.
• Minimal memory allocations.

recache.Cache implementations

The recache package itself only provides a cache interface and some utility functions for users who wish to implement that interface. You can either use an implementation created by someone else or write your own.

Implementations

• lrure provides a thread-safe in-memory cache using the least recently used (LRU) cache replacement policy.

If wrote a recache.Cache implementation and wish it to be linked here, please send a patch.

Installation

To install recache alone, run:

go get git.sr.ht/~jamesponddotco/recache-go
